Marilyn

I received some positive comments regarding my “Stana as Marilyn” photo posted here last Friday. And the commenters wanted to know more about the circumstances of the photo.

Well, at the time that the photo was taken, that’s how I went out dressed among the civilians. Needless to say, I received a lot of attention whenever I went out!

Only kidding! 

Actually, I dressed as Marilyn Monroe for my support group’s Halloween party in October 2001. The photo was taken in the hall where my support group normally met. The dress, shoes and gloves were eBay finds, while the belt and wig were Kmart purchases. (I used to buy a lot of dresses on eBay, but finally swore off eBay because I found that half the time, the published sizes were inaccurate and stuff that should have fit according to the published sizes, did not fit.)

To tell you the truth, that Halloween party was so long ago that I don’t recall anything about it except what I wore. 

One commenter wanted more information about my Marilyn’s bust, but I am unsure about how I achieved it. Most likely, I used surgical tape to squeeze my natural B-cup breasts together to create cleavage and used my homemade birdseed falsies to fill out the parts of my bra cups that were emptied due to my squeezed breasts.

And that’s the whole story (as much of it as I can remember).

Wearing Ann Taylor

Alex Nole at the 2025 Met Gala

The 2025 Met Gala was Monday night and photos of the event appeared all over the internet Tuesday morning. For example, Glamour had 102 photos of the girls and boys strutting their stuff.

What a clown show! I would not be caught dead wearing most of the stuff that was on display. I won’t mention specific people who dressed like clowns (the list would be too long). However, I will mention Alex Newell, who did us femulators proud. Alex is always a class act and did not let us down Monday night.
