The purpose of this Dispatch is, in addition to showing you what I think is a pretty cute Spring outfit, to prove that, despite my hideously massive clothing collection, I wear the same things all the time. All the more reason to stick to my Spartan Resolution, I say! Which reminds me, since Issue 05 [...]

This will be kept brief and image-heavy, as I’m in the midst of working on an illustration and wrangling an interview for Coilhouse 05, operating at half brain-speed because my blood is at least 50% spice lemonade thanks to the MC, sending off the last of the sticker orders, and standing on my ears while [...]

The first Style Dispatch of 2010 is a bit rushed, so I hope you will excuse this cross-post from Haute Macabre, A Spartan Resolution:

I have decided that, having as much clothing as I do should preclude me from adding anything to my obese closets until next winter. That’s right, a whole year without shopping.
It might [...]

I’m just going to stop apologizing for taking too long to post this or that. So what if it’s been two months since the last Style Dispatch? You’ll take it when you can get it and you will love it. YEAHH! Wait… Where are you going? I was just joking. Please, come back. I took [...]

As mentioned a while back, I decided to finally dress as Major Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell for Halloween. Last year I boycotted the holiday altogether so it was definitely time to do it up. In retrospect, I realize that this differs very little from the way I usually look; in fact, I owned [...]

Nothing like a bit of Rick Owens to make one growl “I’m Batman” from a rooftop. As I type this, the glass in my sliding doors sounds like it’s about to shatter into a million slivers and  all the light bulbs are blinking in unison. Yes, the winds are back with a vengeance here in [...]

Before I kick off this Style Dispatch, I wanted to direct you to an article Lou O’Bedlam wrote about me for Manolith.com. Lou, an outstanding photographer and wordsmith, told me he was using me for an article last week, but I thought he was talking about one of the many photos he’s taken of me [...]

Sunday’s outfit is a franken-beast made all of my favorite things: enormous scarf, tight dress, big boots, black. Oh, black. I love you. There was a time a few years ago when I, after wearing black almost exclusively since my teenage days, decided to open my heart and my wardrobe to color. Like all hare-brained [...]

I should probably warn you, dearest new readers, that much of Style Dispatch will involve socks, thigh highs, stockings, etc. I really, really love legwear. One might even call my love an obsession. My sock collection takes up at least 6 drawers! Seriously, gents and ladies – I dropped over $200 on socks alone when [...]

Printed on durable cotton/elastane blend in opalescent blue, The Messenger shimmers violet, pink and silver. I originally conceived her as the [...]

My affection for Los Angeles is a drawn out, turbulent affair. I stay, for now, because of the nuances not found anyplace else, entirely unique to this place. Case in point: say you’ve got a party to go to and that party is Lenora Claire’s birthday bash, held at Houdini’s mansion on Friday the 13th. [...]

This installment of Z!ST is brought to you by two things I find myself missing more often than not: film and coffee houses. Kris Krug from Vancouver was here a few weeks ago and, to my happy surprise, used film for most of our photos. We shot at Cafe Muse – a relatively new [...]

Traveling on business usually leaves no time to explore your surroundings. Spare moments are generally dedicated to little more than sleep and maybe a bath. However, should you have a few hours between meetings, what better way to spend them than exploring some industrial areas around town! Especially if that town happens to be Denver, [...]
