Fatshionable photos from my trip to Cincinnati

I recently took a much-needed gaycation, splitting my time between my hometown of Cincinnati and Creating Change in Atlanta. I recharge whenever I go home to visit my queer family, and many of them accompanied me to Atlanta, where I was able to visit with people I dearly love but rarely get to be with in person.

Below are a few shots from my travels at home. Coverage of Creating Change in Atlanta — both the fashion and the conference — is coming soon.

This is how Butch Bestie looked when I arrived, painted for Miss Drag You Out at Cabaret. I’m wearing a vintage khaki swing jacket.

“We’re the crappiest butches on Earth. I’m knitting. This one’s a drag queen. And by crappiest I mean awesomest because we do what we want.” — Beelisty

Saying goodbye to Beelisty, as she sports her finest fancy butch style.
