Trash Chic: A guide to ultimate fashion


What I have learned in Hollywood is that there are two kinds of people, the chic and then there's the "Trash-Chic." The definition of Trash Chic is something that has been around for a very long time. It wasn't until now that someone, like myself, has named this genre. This style is very flexible and tangible for everyone. Beauty." In the words of Dolly Parton in that all-time fave, Steel Magnolias...repeat after me: "There is no such thing as natural beauty!" You may want to add a southern twang for authenticity! I'd like to warn you "It takes time to look like this:" (insert photo here)

I have dedicated my knowledge to teaching women, and men the ways to achieve a "Trash Chic" look. Here you shall discover what it takes to be a part of this underground movement in fashion. Every area of art has taken its lead from a secret, underground culture. This style has been around since the begining of the word tacky. John Waters can be noted as one of the founding fathers of pure trash chic. In the 60's he revolutionized Hollywood's fashion with his intricate, taste-less costumes. Divine strutted her big ass in some of the most horendous "Big Girl" outfits. I loved 'em all!

Edith Massey was a goddess of all the "Trash Chic." She was better known for her role as the "egg lady" in Pink Flamingo. In it she out did all wanna-bes in a girdle that didn't help much! Edie can be noted for her excellent use of the essential cosmetic, liquid eyeliner, which comes in a variety of colors. Black is the must have of all trash chic pupils! I repeat liquid eyeliner should be #1 in your bag of tricks! Can you say liquid eyeliner?
