Saturday Night Fever

Last Saturday night THIS happened:
I went from housewife to disco diva.
It's not every day I get to rock and afro and platforms (and its a damn shame) but at the Ugly Disco this type of attire isn't just accepted, it's encouraged.  The more outrageous, the better, and all of the proceeds go to charity.  Win-Win.  

God knows I love to dress up.  As a kid, I won the costume contest at the Ringwood Firehouse every Halloween.  The kids on the bus started teasing me saying that it was rigged and that they knew my uncle was the judge.  Neither was true. I just had the best costumes EVER and when this girl has a costume on she gets into CHARACTER.  You put a Southern Belle outfit on my six-year-old self and you better know I'm rocking a southern accent complete with a Scarlett O'Hara "fiddle dee dee" to boot.  When I was dressed up as Nefretiri and you thought I was Cleopatra, I not only corrected you, but also quoted lines from The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston.  I'm a winner; a dress up winner.  Just ask the kids on bus route HB-2.

At thirty, things aren't much different.  Throughout the course of the evening, I definitely heard myself say (out loud and on instagram) "Step aside Foxy Brown, there's a new 'fro in town."

But honestly, can you blame me?

I mean, check this out:

We're like twins for crying out loud!
All proceeds went to benefit Golisano Children's Hospital, a cause near and dear to my heart.  It was a great night for a great cause and I'm already planning my outfit for next year...

Let me leave you with the infinite wisdom of those wise philosophers otherwise known as A Taste of Honey:  



"If you're thinkin' you're too cool to boogie, Boy, oh boy have I got news for you
Everybody here tonight must boogie
Let me tell ya' you are no exception to the rule
Get on up on the floor
Cuz we're gonna boogie oogie oogie til you just can't boogie no more." 


Peace out,

xoxo

Lame-o

So, the truth is, I'm running a yard/bake sale for MOMS Club of Fairport to raise money for Golisano Children's Hospital tomorrow and Saturday.  Since I've been setting up all day today and will be working the sale all day tomorrow, I can't promise any exciting content...at least not until Saturday.

You see, Friday night I am making my runway modeling debut at Blue's Pre-Launch Party (in a wedding gown no less).  Please pray I don't fall down!  I'll definitely be blogging about my experience in Saturday's post, but as for today and tomorrow, you're going to have to deal with content that I did not write.  I know I know.  Lame-o!

So today, I rip off Rachel Zoe (God love her).  Keep in mind that I am only borrowing content so that I can raise money for charity.  (That makes it all ok).  If you would like to donate to Golisano Children's Hospital click here:  I'd love to help!  For those of you who actually read this blog for its fashion and beauty content, here is today's Zoe Report.  Enjoy.
