Fashion for Politics

It’s everywhere you turn. On bumper stickers, scrawled across trucker hats,(OY VEY Who the fuck is still wearing trucker hats) in commercials during a television show, staring from the cover of your favorite magazine. All with one resounding message: OBAMA FASHION is sweeping our nation.

Not since JFK has a political figure been so revered and loved by (most of) the American public. And fashion, ever a source of *unique* and “understated” expression, is showing the belabored symptoms as well.

The ubiquitous Obama tee can be seen on everyone from trendy hipsters in France to the glamourous Halle and trannylicious Beyonce strolling the streets of NYC…(minus her wig of course)

Other forms of fashionable political expression are not as endearing.

 

Honestly.

Who decided to come up with an Obama Dance?

…. Sure, maybe somewhere somehow it will inspire some poor lost youngster to vote… but you have to wonder: especially in light of the Paris Hilton comparisons, is it hurting or helping his campaign?

How long is it before women start coming into the salon asking for the “Palin Bangs”

or the “Alaskan Highlights”? Come on!

Not to quote Bring it On or anything (yea I took it there) but…remember young voters, paraphernalia is strictly forboden at the voting booths so remember to leave your trendy Obama Canvas tote bag at home on election day.

Just settle for the one you bought from Strand.

“Where in the hell have the gays been!?” you are probably wondering. No, I wasn’t having a mental breakdown or locked away in a psych ward nor did I commit any heinous crimes and spend a week at Rikers.  (Thought if it’s anything like Oz I might welcome it)
I’ve been in the twilight zone….trapped between crates of shampoos, conditioners, cosmetics and hair dye.

Jennifer Lopez recently launched her new men’s fragrance “Deseo” (Desire for all the gringo’s out there) at the Macy’s in Herald Square.

and she showed up looking like

THIS

What, what, WHAT are you doing!

Honestly Jennifer Lopez.  You make millions of dollars.  Your ass is worth millions- so I want to meet whoever told you:

“GIRL YOU R SO EFFING FIERCE RIGHT NOW. GO OUT THERE AND SHOW THEM YOUR DESEO GURL”

YOUR BLONDE TONER IS FADING AND SURE THE LIPSTICK IS BLEEDING BUT HEY YOU’RE HENNEEFER LOHPEZ!

OH and don’t worry about your face looking powdery because that is so IN right now!

… Come on.  Honestly.  if I saw a woman walking around Herald Square like that I’d probably shake my head and say “God Bless Her.”  I learned to do that hairset when I was like five. Seriously!  Our Abuela’s now have a new style icon.

What I don’t get it is how these celebrities can leave the house looking the way they do sometimes- I know that backstage their handlers must be feeding them the “you look great!” “oh my god so fab.”

Examples:

From the glue in her hair to the animal fat in her lips she is one HBIC

Now, now. GOD BLESS HER. I love her, we all secretly do. but this event will be forever infamous.

But who.

WHO WHO WHO told this queen of mine that she looked hot going onto the stage like that. A real gay would have told her the truth.

Millions of dollars and all the luxuries in the world but no one will tell these divas of our generation the truth.
