Fly tying haute couture! The colors are fantastic and they accessorize brilliantly with the hook tones. It's almost like you channeled your inner Herb Tarlek, you know, where the belt has to match the shoes, only you did it way better.

It's a Parmachene Belle tied by RuPaul!

...maybe an overly effervescent Tequila Sunrise?

Absolutely gorgeous.

All I can say is, thank God my grandparents raised me in a Dick Curless/George Jones culture.
