what's a boychik to wear?

So, I realized that Dyke March should be an opportunity for fabulosity, thanks in part to [livejournal.com profile] wookiepocket's post about getting dragged up as Betty Crocker for the stuff around her neck of the woods. Um, all I can come up with is fairy wings, which I don't have. So if anyone has a pair o' wings I can borrow (preferably gossamer, rather than fluff), let me know. Or if anyone is super crafty and can tell me how to make them, that would work too.

I worked 11 and a half hours today and I feel like I'm gonna pass out. Since I know that I won't and will likely stay up for hours on end, I made myself a wicked strong g+t to nurse. No one drinks that fucking old bottle of Tanqueray besides me, anyway.

Ayy, I need to get up and do another 12 hours in 10 hours. Blah. I'm gonna call my girlfriend, and dream of wonderful costumes for next weekend. Any aspiring-glam people should help me think up outfits.

I have no suggestions, except: lots of glitter! And possibly body jewelry. You know, the sticky kind? Good luck. ;)

Queenspiration? . . . though I see you as more of a glitter queen than a straight up drag queen. Then again -- if you do really obviously, ridiculously over-the-top DRAG drag, not just femme drag, you may be more likely to pass. As a drag queen. This has worked for some people I know!

Maybe it's worth a try.
I've got all the glitter and shit ready for the wings but I don't have the spatial concepts to know how to make them. Also I'm nervous about being perceived as a girl. Oh fuck it. It'll be fine, right?

Body jewelry!?! And man, I had just decided not to get my tits pierced ;).
Now I'm wondering, if all my props are gonna be wings and dick, what the hell am I gonna wear?? And shoes? I can't wear boots with shorts...

(ps- thanks for the drag link. maybe I'll do false eyelashes, if I'm feeling like it. Last year I went topless and it was good. I don't know this year. Also I have a silly question for you which I will email. love, me.)
