CONFESSION: Check-out at Hotel Vertigo. Super dreamy lobby. You can read more about it here, if you’d like. We are up and at ‘em on approximately 4-5 hrs. of sleep and absolutely pining for donuts and coffee. We weren’t sure how nightmarish the Love Parade malarkey would be, so we just dashed out of there right before noon and headed to our favorite Noe Valley donut shop. They have Peerless coffee there! A plus. Let’s see if you can guess what I’m thinking as I gaze fondly down upon that polished, gorgeous hunk of wood.

CONFESSION: It was so Fall on this day! Monday, to be exact. I used to loathe the grey + ivory combination, but I am for it this season, especially if you swap the predictable dash of mustard with a nice, predictable and lush rose instead. Ideally, in some sort of ridiculously lavish, ruffled suede. Mm. I guess I’m sort of a moron for not throwing on my pink posie Tulle coat on over this. Next time!

CONFESSION: We discovered that M hates shooting at night and Halloween today. I know, right? OK, so night shooting is HARD and a pain in the ass, but hating Halloween? I think I should remind her about candy corn and slutty costumes bonding with loved ones in a creepy way. In any case, I can’t let her hate Halloween until we’ve dressed up as Moroccan Tranny Patsy and Edina first. It’s our dream! I had fun on the night shoot; we explored the creepy alley across the street and I pretended to be scary and chased kittens around.

NOTE: I gave y’all a three-for-one because even though they were different pairs of jeans, they were still jeans. Never fear (esp. not you, H), I had heels on in both of the above and a brand spankin’ new pair of hella fierce Betsey Johnson tights that are dying to debut themselves.

QUERY: An extremely lovely and devoted reader recently wondered if I might do a Q & A here at FFAF, and you know what I thought? I thought I would, if you’d like. Feel free to send burning questions to fitforafemme@gmail.com and I’ll answer enthusiastically and in bulk to the best of my ability!

    Those photos of you and M are fucking adorable.

    Also, YAAAAAAAY for Q&A feature!

    M hates Halloween?!? This is breaking my heart right now! Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday! Costumes, candy and spooky stuff–what’s not to love?

    Loving the jeans, and psyched for the Q&A feature!

    Halloween (technically November 1, at 12:32 AM) is my birthday. M is not allowed to hate it anymore.

    I’m loving the jeans and the three-for-one post, and that big stump-table of awesomeness.

    You look sexy and very leggy in those jeans.

    I agree with DorothyZ completely. Halloween is my personal high holy day. LOVE it. And the tranny Patsy and Edina costume idea is great. Just curious, how does M feel about the Day of the Dead?

    Is the Q & A (great idea) style-focused or are you willing to tackle embarrassing personal questions?

    Never fear, darlings, I’m sure it was a short-lived hatred born of the same kind of seething resentment of all the things that ruined old standbys like Halloween in the Castro, etc. She’ll come around. She did say she’d still attend a Halloween house party…

    Re: the Q & A, I’ll take any and all questions! Everything almost always comes back around to personal style, besides, so bring it on.

  • coopergirl

    Love the new haircut and it’s so shiny!

  • M

    i love day of the dead! candy skulls!
    no one gives out candy corn anymore because the fucking PTA has brainwashed everyone that all unwrapped candy is laced in poison and GHB with miniature razors embedded within. wrapped bite sized pieces of American chocolate bars? pfffft.

    i hate Halloween because every attention-whore frat guy feels the need to wear a low cut dress and heels but none of them bother to shave their hideous man boobs or atrocious legs. OH LOOK HIDEOUS HAIRY “LADIES” EVERYWHERE AND CHOCOLATE THAT IS 10% CACAO.

    PASS.

    J. Gold, i will still come to your party though, especially if you can guarantee there will be only be candy corn and hot ladies.

  • M

    also, yay cockfight!
    ‘sides, they wear costumes there all the time, and that is fucking awesome.

  • AGreenEyeDevil

    I want to see the Patsy and Edina pics!

  • Sher

    I’ve never seen M in yellow! It suits her!

    You have amazing style.

    M, Halloween is a holiday devoted to sugar highs and booze and inappropriate behavior we later can blame on our costumes. It’s like my own personal heaven for a day.

    The costumes that the rest of the world wears need to STEP IT UP, however. “Slutty this, slutty that”… bah. If you’re not wearing some sort of elaborate headdress, I say it’s not a real costume.
