I jumped right on that Christmas holiday spirit on

I jumped right on that Christmas holiday spirit on December 1! I think I’m eager for the holidays after a very long year, since it means it’s almost over and we’ve made it this far. 🥂

I have very little patience for doing my nails. They aren’t very strong, but they do naturally grow very long, fast. So I happily support nail artists who are much better at making sure my claws are shiny, shaped and season-appropriate. 💅🏻

I went to Above Pigment in the Financial District and ask for this peppermint design, which they absolutely nailed! 😍 Now I’m feeling all festive and can’t stop looking at my hands. 👀🎄♥️

I had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend! @oldyoungkim and I made an salted caramel apple pie AND a pumpkin spice pie! 🥧

We had our Thanksgiving dinner at @anniecushing’s place with all the fixings I look forward to each year. 🤤

@finncushing looked all stylish in his new sweater that Young knit for him! 🐶

This year has been a turbulent one for me for sure. It’s been a year of extremes; lots of good and bad things have happened. But things are evening out now and I’m very happy with where I’m at in my life, and who’s a part of it. 🥰

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it! 🦃

I’m so behind on posting birthday shenanigans because my thirties have started off in a whirlwind of activity and responsibilities! 😅But I’m going to start posting the lovely moments I had with friends and family now!
.
The first event, which has now become a tradition, was my birthday high tea at King’s Carriage House on the Upper East Side! I love this brownstone that was converted into a tea house by the current owner’s mother. 😍
.
We were barely able to all fit around one table, but we made it work. There were three tea pots (Paris, Jasmine, and Cinnamon Spice), lots of finger sandwiches and pastries, and they brought out a special birthday treat for me! 🫖🍰🧁☕️
.
Extra special thanks to @vintageglamourlife for the beautiful birthday tea compilation video! She captured the afternoon PERFECTLY! 🎥
.
I’ve been wanting to come back here with friends ever since my last birthday celebration here in 2019! It was so lovely to have an excuse to get dressed up like a cupcake, see my friends’ beautiful faces in person, and catch up a bit!
.
I wore a true vintage 1950s dress from @trudysvariety, a peach crinoline from @uniquevintage, and 1950s gloves and a broach that I had received the day before from my grandmother. 💕
.
I also wore a wig that I had styled for another party and figured was too fun to only wear once! Women did actually dye their hair pastel colors in the 1950s though, surprisingly. So that was right on track with the rest of the look, but felt extra fun! 💖

As I glide into my 30s, I've been looking over the past decade of my life, and I can honestly say that I love the life I've built for myself. I've lived it up, but I'm just getting started. I think this next decade is going to be even better than the last three! 🖤

Happy Halloween! I’m dressed as my favorite character from Greek mythology, Medusa. 🐍

I’m so happy to have an excuse to wear my Victorian caplet, 1940s vintage gown, and 1940s bag. 🖤

I have so many milestones happening right now that I can hardly keep up! ✨

💃🏼 This Sunday was my 9 year swing dancing anniversary.

🗽 I also just celebrated my 4 year NYC resident anniversary.

🏳️‍🌈 Sunday was also my first National Coming Out Day. I celebrated by working my first Sunday as the new Audio Visual Team Lead for @forefrontbk, my beautiful, progressive church family that dedicated the service to coming out.

🥰 While we’re on the topic, this is the first year I’ve been out as being bisexual, queer, and polyamorous (last one is new and I’m loving it). I practice solo polyamory and relationship anarchy. ♥️

💄 I love presenting as very feminine, but I equally love dressing androgynously to switch things up and make people evaluate their feelings on that matter. 😏

Vlad captured this amazing photo at the @jazzagelawnparty when I dressed up in @repealclubnyc’s 1920s style pants and rocked the boat a bit, even being told by friends that I was inspiring them to wear some pants. Haha 😉

I’m back at it, teaching the Business, Branding, & Marketing Class at @makeupschoolnyc! 💙

This is probably my favorite class to teach since I can combine my 12 years of experience in the Internet Marketing industry and my years of knowledge as a beauty industry entrepreneur to help new makeup artists thrive. 🤑

I’m bi+, so @mcmullz and I decided to celebrate last night at the Montauk Club. Cheers! 🍷

Saturday was wild! I styled a wig that originally just had beach waves for @raissabretana’s wig party at @thebeautybarnyc to celebrate her 30th birthday! It was a really fun time. 🥂🎂🎈

Then I went to @thedjangonyc to see @dannyjonokuchi and The Revisionists perform and dance the night away. You needed to show proof of vaccination to get in and the place was sold out!💃🏼🎺🎶

I felt like an Old Hollywood movie star walking around NYC in this number. I need more excuses to wear gowns and colorful wigs! 💖
