Thoughts and feelings

It's almost the end of the year and I just turned 34 a couple of weeks ago. I must say so far it is the best year ever. I mentally got rid of some baggage, I turned on the positive vibes, and stuff has been happening. I've wasted enough of my years on man boys, bad thoughts, and just general blah-ness. A boy just recently sent me a Pee-Wee Herman video to express his feelings towards me. Need I say more? I don't. In any case, it's got me thinking about my own do and what to do next. My heart of hearts wants to go platinum blonde and chop it off. I just have not been able to do it. I did play dress up and wear a wig and it felt right, almost too right. I want to look like I just stepped out of another era and wish that was my job to just play dress up. How do I transfer my inner self to corporate life? I don't know. I do it, but kind of just want to be a little wilder, but I guess I am getting old, and I'd rather look hot than not. I spent many of my early years experimenting with my look…short hair, knee highs, ill-fitting vintage clothing (you get the drift and you may have been there)and I wasn't getting many dates from those years. Where am I going with this? Well below is an example of how I see my glamorous self. My rant and rave is all for showing myself in a wig with all items that I currently own and loving it.

Tuff Turf

So Vavoom introduced me to the one movie I have not seen in the 80s. A little known fun fact about me..I really thought I had seen every movie ever created in the 80s. Turns out I missed one and it is called Tuff Turf. Synopsis - James Spader moves from CT to the rough streets of LA. There he meets Frankie who is the girl in this bad ass gang. So basically he falls in love with the girl from the other side of the tracks AKA every plot of most 80s movies I have seen. Robert Downey jr., is also in it playing a drummer in the band/dance sequence that always follows in these movies. Anyway, it's so bad and so good, but more importantly Frankie's hair is out of control. It's past her rear and crimped with a bubble bang AND a forehead headband. If I could conjure up my 80s fantasy do, this might be it. Another fun fact, I only got my hair awesome in my mid-late 20s. It took a while. Anyway, feast your eyes on below and let it sink in.

Hair chronicles....Where have I been?

There has been so much to say, so little time, so many questions, with no real answers. What brought me back? I am not sure. Maybe a need to discuss hair, feelings, and some more hair. But mostly I think it might have been this special lady I saw on the train. I normally don't try to take pictures of people, but I was so fascinated by this woman's hair piece. If you cannot tell from this photo, it is a yarn-knit headband followed by an abundance of feathers. Beautiful red/pink neon feathers. I didn't know what to make of it when I saw her. I just knew I had to capture this for the one day I was going to update this blog. Today is that day. If you do not know this already, I tend to think about what I am going to look like as a senior citizen. I think about it quite often. Sometimes I see things I want to put on, but I remind myself "no, it's too soon". I admire a woman that can go out with this much flash happening. I step out sometimes in the dullest of colors, sometimes pure drab, and I throw on some red lipstick and think I am spicing things up. Then I see this woman and know I am far from achieving amazingness. I am far from my true wanna be drag queen self. It's ok though, I have many years to start collecting and getting ready for something that is going to blow everyone's minds. Look me up in about 40 years...I am going to look magical. xoxo Queen Do Talk

Baby Bangs Not Bangin'

I remember in the early 2000s when I sported a baby bang. Not just me...but all of my friends. We were 'different' and non-regs (regular people). For the time, it was pretty common. You would be watching a band and most girls resembled a similar look. We all wore jeans and mostly black t-shirts. Maybe a few ringer t's here and there. Now when I see a baby bang on a woman that is my age, I start to question what happened. It's not so much she didn't change her hairstyle, but more like she just cut a baby bang when she had a semi-normal hairdo. Don't get me wrong...who hasn't looked at Audrey Tautou in Amelie and wanted to be her? Hell I might still want to be her. I might chop off my bangs just to fall in love with a man who works at a porn shop. It just takes a special woman to pull this off. It might not be you. That's all I am saying.
