Deborah Gibson, Spangly Hot Mess
By Manolo the Shoeblogger
Manolo says, remember this, from ten years ago?
Why did you finally decide to change your name to Deborah?
When I called myself Debbie initially, it was because everyone else was uncomfortable calling me Deborah. So I went, “Well, let me make everyone feel comfortable.” But I didn’t feel comfortable because anyone who’s ever known me has always called me Deborah. It’s kind of where I feel I’ve reached my limit and I want to say, ‘You know what? My name is Deborah.” I just feel it’s more representative of what I’m doing now, and the whole thing that goes along with getting older, being more comfortable with yourself.
Apparently the name ‘Deborah’ is more representative of women who look like they have careers performing show tunes on board discount cruise ships.

Fedoras do NOT go with formal shorts. Nothing does, of course.
But, honestly, could she not have busted out the magenta lip gloss? If you’re gonna go for it, bloody well GO FOR IT!
