Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 Robynn Van Patten... the woman with the looks and the body to turn a gay man straight! LOL That's a hell of a compliment there Robynn. And I'll bet you really were all that too! What a great time... Ron Robynn's milestone So last night was the annual SF AIDS gala for the s. I went last year, wearing a size 20. Last night, I wore a size 8. And here's the thing:The theme was "Rubies and Rhinestones". My dress was red, and skimmed along every curve. Very 40s movie star. It was strapless and had a little asymmetrical teardrop buckle on the side, gold with rhinestones in it. Ruby red. I bought some vintage jewelry, clip on earrings, a matching necklace and a beautiful matching bracelet. It fit my wrist, which was a miracle (because I have the wrists of a Russian peasant woman.) I had one of those short, white fur stoles (not real, I like animals too much). I had my hair done like Rita Hayworth. I had fake eyelashes on. I had a little gold vintage bag, and strappy gold high heels. was in a tux with a ruby red bowtie.I got more compliments! All the gay men (who tend to love me anyway...probably because they know I adore them) were telling me I was FABULOUS...several told me that they were going to have to rethink being gay altogether. This gay couple came up and flirted with and tried to speak French to him. They asked him to take a picture with them...and I said, "Let me take the picture, I'm good at that." Finally, they realized I was there...and one of them said, "HOney...you are obviously good at EVERYTHING you do!!" I laughed and said, "Why do you think that?" And he said, "Look at you in your gorgeous red dress, perfectly put together...all Rita Hayworth 40s glam movie star! Only perfect women with total confidence could carry that off the way you can!!!" And then he turned to his partner and said, "Can we keep them BOTH, please?!" It was hilarious! And great for my ego.SO, I was FABULOUS. In a red dress that hugged every curve. In a strapless number, for goodness' sake.What a difference a year has made!!!Much love,Rita...oops, I mean "Robynn" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
