Bombarding The Bride

“We got married in a movie theater. We gave the guests popcorn to throw instead of rice. Knowing my friends, I should have expected this.”

Cowgirl

“Back in the days of glamour shots, a friend and I decided to surprise our husbands with some photos of ourselves. When we got to the studio, I saw this hat and jacket and thought, ‘my husband’s a Cowboy’s fan! He’ll like this!’ Believe it or not, he kept this photo on his desk at work for years. He must really love me!”

The Space Lady And Son

“This is me and my Mom performing on the streets of San Francisco, circa 1994. As you can tell from this pic, I’ve been blessed with impeccable fashion sense my whole life:
✓ Cosby Sweater (before it was creepy)

✓ Knit Elf Stocking Hat

✓ Granny Glasses

✓ Star Trek Keychain Clipped To Belt Loop

Also for anyone curious, my mom is “The Space Lady,” a famous* street musican and “outsider icon.” Her Greatest Hits album was originally released on hand-made cassette tapes back in the 80’s. It was re-released by an actual record label a couple years ago and was named in Vice Magazine’s 50 Best Albums of 2014 and NME’s “101 Albums to Hear Before You Die”

*by street musican standards, anyway.”

Lean In

“I don’t know what this pose is all about. It looks like our backs hurt or we are all going to puke in the next 10 seconds. All my friends say it looks like an advert for a family-TV-Show in the early 90s but I think the photo is from 2001.”

Octo-Grandma

“This is my Googoo (grandmother) in 1980 debuting the spider costume she made. Everyone in our family has gotten to wear this in at some point in our lives (either by choice or a very strong recommendation from the designer).”
