I haven’t done a contest in a few months. It’s time. Inspired by Rechelle & April’s recent Grey Gardens fashion show…I’m throwing out the task of taking a STAUNCH photo of yourself. Dress up like Edie or just project your inner-Edie. Big Edie. Little Edie. Any Edie will do. Just make it STAUNCH. There is a First Prize and a Second Prize.
If you’ve no idea what I’m talking about…rent Grey Gardens or watch some clips on You Tube.
and perhaps the best…
and the STAUNCH segment:
What are the prizes? Not telling – cause I’m mean – but will tell you that they are super-fabulous and have a retail value in excess of $125 buckaroos. First prize is worth at least $100 and Second prize is worth at least $25. Now, get your staunch-on. Send me ONE picture no later than July 3rd. All photos will be posted on July 4th and the winner announced then. Tal is going to pick the winner of course. Anyone can enter, but the prizes must go to US residents since I’m too lazy to stand in line at the post office and fill out forms.
Now…get on with it already.

Hey…even the Fiance and my Mom get a bit Staunch now and then…
I’m updating my Links list so look for groovy new links to these blogs:

Love the bringing together of the edies! yay for wee beanpaste and i love upstate together!
Oh My goodness the contest just started and there already is a winner.
Who can compete with BeanPaste’s very little Edie.
Geeeeawd! I didn’t bring home the fur coat! How am I supposed to put together my costume of the day? I think I’ll go find some fabric to wrap around my panty hose on the outside of my shorts.
Fabulous! Already an excuse to slip on that orange dress again!
The Fiance looks like a fortune-teller. A nice-looking one.
Beanpaste’s Littlest Edie really takes the prize. The cutest Edie ever.
I’m staunch and have over 100 ugly bridesmaid dresses, but I don’t think anyone can out do Rachelle in her Gypsy Cadaver pose.
Sorry I haven’t posted…things have just been suckin’ lately. I’ll post whenever I can think of something that doesn’t sound like a belch from the bellows of hell.
EXCUSE ME…Former Martha Stewart employee who email’d the Fiance today…email your damn Staunch picture. Please.
