Thierry and Cherry

I like to visit 1995. It was a breaking point in fashion. Here I'm wearing one of my fave looks by mr Thierry Mugler. He's like a super bodybuilder now...

#RED dresses in honor of World AIDS Day

This past Monday, December 1st, aka yesterday, was World AIDS Day. I decided to wear famous #RED gowns from film and pop culture to show my support. You can check them out on twitter @cherry_blonde, or you can wait for me to post them on here during the course of the month. Can you guess the wearers?

 

The main themes for WAD 2014 is "Getting To Zero" and "Closing The Gap". Both themes support the idea of being informed; about AIDS, and your own status which can bring us to the ideal of no new infections and no separation amoungst people.

 

Anyway, so December is by far the reddest month of the year. Apart from Christmas, the whole month is internationally World AIDS Awareness Month. Do your bit to inform and get informed this month and show your support any way you can..x

 

Hashtags to remember: #WorldAIDSDay #WorldAIDSMonth #CloseTheGap #GettingToZero

Cherry and June sitting in a tree...

 

June was chosen for LGBT Pride Month because of the "Stonewall riots" named after the Stonewall Inn which was a gay tavern in New York City. The tavern was frequently raided by the police until the night of June 28, 1969 when the customers fought back and chased the police out. The Stonewall riots are seen as the most important event leading to the gay liberation movement in America.

For more info on the riots, and a bit of a laugh please check out "Stonewall", the 1995 comedy directed by Nigel Finch..x
