So many wonderful, talented people in our town got recognition t

oday for their hard work! Angel and I had no idea that we were going to be the cover girls for the Best Of issue. Imagine my surprise when I saw my face grinning back at me while buying my morning cup of coffee!!

Read the full article here, which is a good read, even if you don’t live in Austin. Oh, and here’s our award: Best Reason to Learn the Charleston:
The last Great Depression has this one licked for fashion. So for those of you with steak-house tastes on a soup-kitchen budget, once a month, the retro-chic molls and brunos of Vintage Vivant, lead by mostest hostesses Angeliska (Gadjo Disko) and Amelia (Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School) break out the Dutch caps and fedoras to turn Swan Dive into Austin’s finest gin mill. The bluenoses can pipe down – even if you’re a cement mixer on the dance

floor, this is the finest way to hoof away this trip to the poor house.

Congrats to our friends & local haunts: Coco Coquette, Charm School Vintage, Swan Dive, Dennis Campa with Adventures in Sound, East Side Show Room, Minor Mishap Marching Band, Justine’s, and Queer Bomb for their wins & for keeping Austin so special!

Our next party is on October 30th, featuring music from The Vintage 15 and burlesque by Sassy Delure.
