Rally Cats!

I grabbed Gumby because his Pro-Choice sticker caught my eye. Handsome Gumby!

My good friend Emily and I rode the Huffington Post Bus (1 bus of the 200!) down to the rally to restore sanity in DC last Saturday. We saw Arianna who is very blonde right now. It was her birthday. People were singing to her.

It was dark and cold in Queens waiting to get on those buses:


The atmosphere was again, very happy and positive. There were so many people everywhere. I'm so happy their turn-out was huge! While we were on our (late!) bus, we listened to the rally on the radio but once we got there, we had no idea what was going on. We just mingled and checked out the amazing sign-show!


There were people as far as the eye could see.


Here's my sweatshirt iron-on design. It said "RALLY CATS" down our arms.




You can check out all of my not that fantastic, but decent for atmosphere photos from this event on Flickr.

Bonnie was not impressed...

Bonnie Dog was not impressed... By this amazing, wonderful, beautiful gown display at the Armani on 5th Ave. at 56th street!




I got the tip from Suze Orman's Twitter. Yes, the money/power/lesbian who reminisces in her book about wearing her freshest Sassoon pants to her job interview at Merryl Lynch. I LOVE Suze! She said she walked by this and saw Gaga's dress. My Husband is torturing me by playing video games for days, so I got my best friend, Bonnie, and we walked down to check it out. Suze called it, ya'll! I'm so glad she gave me the tip!

This is def. Anne H. but I can't remember Golden Globes, I think? Love her!

She's a "pale sister" of mine! One of my favorite NYC stories is when she introduced herself to me as "Annie." My girl.


Warning below... no make-up... And a Fanny Pack! Don't judge.

My baby girl was not impressed with any of this madness.


More pics are in a little set on Flickr. There were dresses on the inside of the store too, but I was there after hours. 5th Ave. is bananas during the day. And the dresses on the inside weren't sparkly. I'm so happy that I can literally walk out the front door with my crazy old dog and go see wonderful stuff like this.

Here's a dress Beyonce wore. Just smothered in chains & rhinestone goodness:

Beyonce is my other sister.

I just heard about Michelle Obama's Inaugural Ball gown going on display this week at the Smithsonian and Catching a Wild Hair + a China Town Bus ticket might take me to see that display really soon! Historic Fashion exhibits are my absolute favorite in the whole world. Love!
