discolé monade Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 i can NOT get this out of my head. i submerged myself into the world of wonder and ru'paul for the last week (again) and i just KNOW i can pull it off. cab calloway, robert dinero, ricky ricardo. i want to know if there are any drag queens/kings in here, and i want to pick your brain. i also need suits, i'm looking at 'zoot suits', the suit styles of the 40's, 50's. but that is kind of a safe play. i don't plan on showing, only binding. and i don't plan on stuffing (lol, i'd be ridiculous and try to shove an eggplant size thing down there) i just want to try it. my friend says to go to shows, which i already plan, but they're only drag quens (still can learn plenty). i've been watching the youtubes, and i'm like, 'i look better than THAT'. the last time i latched onto somethng was watching all the seasons available of 'the great british bake off' and said, 'i can do that' and i did, and opened my own bakery/catering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) You should've gone as Noel Fielding when he played Richmond Avenal in the I.T. Crowd for Halloween last night. *shrugs* Edited November 1, 2023 by Gemini I actually meant that as a good thing. I wasn't trying to insult you in any way whatsoever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, as soon as I posted it, I realized that the way I said what I said could've made it seem like I was being a little snarky. Okay then. Just regular Noel Fielding then.

If I had a kid, I would've taken him or her trick or treating last night, though I probably would've dressed up as Matt Berry from What We Do in the Shadows. (Laszlo Cravensworth.)

(Well, from what I've seen, at least. I really need to get Hulu so I can watch it from the beginning.) Thank you. I was going to say I could totally pull off any character Matt Berry's ever played. I just need to be completely over the top with my delivery and make sure I include a nearly flawless English accent. I also need to get a wig because I'm losing my hair. Yay. ;_; lol Edited November 2, 2023 by Gemini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discolé monade Posted November 3, 2023 Author Share Posted November 3, 2023 @ any mod, this can be moved into the TD, because i have now become fully obsessed with this idea, and i KNOW that peope are SICK of it. i know i'm sick of my damn self. i'm up early BECAUSE I CAN'T GET MINNIE THE MOOCHER out of my head. i just woke up from a dream of a 'ball' and me coming out to that damn song. *no death drops were attempted in the making of that dream* i'm going to try to find a few things today at the beauty supply, goodwill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discolé monade Posted November 3, 2023 Author Share Posted November 3, 2023 got to evil mart and was OVERWHELMED in the makeup dept. i have an arm full of stuff, and after i was looking at it, i realized that this was WAY too much stuff, and i was rounding the corner at 200$. so....i politely put everything back, while fighting a mild panic attack. i don't need to go THAT strong. i dont' even have a strong makeup game normally. SO..... after i collected my thoughts, and talked myself down, *was ready to just throw in the towel*, i headed to $5 and below to see if they even had makeup. they do. i'll go back next week, with my daughter, who will be able to help me with all the shades and contour colors, and keep me reeled in, because i was going to spend that $200. fingers crossed, i'll try my first makeup thing next week. OH, and i saw a mens store, that looked like it had 'jazzy' stuff. so i'll check them out too. meanwhile, i have some of the old man's clothes that i can alter, and play around with. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
