Imagine you're a gay kid in Edgefield , SC or Olney, IL or Gadsden, AL and you go the the President's web site and see this:

Civil Unions Begin in Illinois

Illinois citizens can obtain civil union licenses beginning at 7:30 AM today.   The lines in front of the Cook County Clerk's office in Chicago began forming at midnight and Lakeesha Harris and Janean Watkins (pictured above) were the first in line.  Congrats ladies!  Cook County has a "special gift package" for you!  DuPage County has no special gifts, but expects large numbers of people on the first day. 

As yet, there is no word on Richland County, but my sources report that gay white squirrel couples began to form orderly lines in front of the courthouse in the early morning hours.      

Ruffles, Silk And Jeans...Why Not?

How can I wear ruffles in a boho hippie way?

Frequently reserved for a younger audience, this season ruffle details are given a sophisticated spin that will work in any woman’s wardrobe. Here my boho hippie chic look! Ruffled silk dress paired with destroyed jeans. The style is subtle enough for the office, while adding the right amount of flare for a casual evening ensemble. I've styled this romantic dress with vintage blazer/clutch, and  super modern sandals.
