"Oh, THIS is the Outside of the Dress?!? Ohhhhhh..."

Happy Birthday to one of my favorite individuals on the planet, Mr. Tim Gunn.

From his unique use of the English language, to his unbelievably perfect sense of style, to his catch phrases that have made their way into my everyday life...

"Make it work!"

"Don't bore Nina!"

"Where's Andre?"

...he is truly one of a kind.

And I just learned a new Tim Gunn Fun Fact...

"One of his earliest run-ins with drag queens involved J. Edgar Hoover cross-dressing as Vivian Vance
(I Love Lucy's Ethel Mertz)."


I not only envy Tim Gunn, I want to be him!

I love Tim Gunn, too. I met him at a book signing last summer. He's very nice in person.

I'm sure Mr. Hoover was going for "Marilyn Monroe" and just GOT "Vivian Vance." Bless his enlarged old heart...
