How do we dress?
How do we dress?
We dress up as flashy and festive as we want – with each member expressing herself in her own unique way! 💃🏻
Our gowns are from thrift shops, borrowed from a friend, old prom dresses. We embellish our outfits with sparkles, fake flowers, feather boas, outrageous headgear, whatever.
And of course, we all wear WINGS of some sort: butterfly wings, fairy wings, Isis wings!

BE THAT WOMAN
BE THAT WOMAN
Be the kind of woman you want to call when things go wrong.
Be the motivator, the encourager of dreams.
Be the kind of fierce friend you want to have yourself.
Love your girlfriends deeply, they are your sister warriors in this world and only they know just what a crazy, hormonal ride womanhood really is.
Be loyal, love hard.
Be a soulmate, be a sister.
Be strong, be kind.
Listen hard and laugh lots.
Tell the truth but keep the secrets.
Big up everyone you meet.
Kind words travel endlessly.
If you can’t say anything nice don’t say anything at all.
Spread the sparkle of a smile and a compliment whenever you can.
There is room for us all to be happy and successful.
Lend a hand if you’re there already.
Pull your girls up.
Push them if you need to.
Straighten each other’s crowns, spot the lipstick on the teeth and the loo paper on the shoes.
Avoid the drama, smile at the haters, they’re actually admiring you from afar.
– Donna Ashworth
