The New York Times wrote about brides who want to wear pants, aka how you can find clothes that fit you! Brands Tomboy Tailors, Fourteen and Marimacho are featured, as is the Butch Clothing Company but I have to say, this last one hasn’t boded well for a few people I’ve known, my wife included. Just FYI! Try one of the other three.
Speaking of lesbian-owned brands you should support, Sloane & Tate are in this month’s NYLON magazine. Underwear for you and yours!

Tilda Swinton wants everyone to see this photo of her in front of the Kremlin in Russia and read this message: “In solidarity. From Russia with love.” Sigh, she’s so dreamy.
Analousia Valencia is the first out lesbian to enter the chance to be Miss South Carolina. She’s such a babe!
Katie Stelmanis of Austra and I have the same feelings about the movie Side Effects. The out singer said of the film:
And there was like a lesbian moment, and I was excited about the lesbian moment. But it was so fleeting, and obviously not real. Plus, the lesbians betray each other within minutes.She’s also been watching High Art and the riot grrrl film Don’t Need You. Why aren’t we best friends yet?
