Happy Belated 🎈🎁Birthday🎂🍰, Ritchie Valens!
When we visited the Selena🌺 shrine🌴 in Corpus a couple of months ago in commemoration of her 2-decade anniversary, I mentioned how Selena is my cousin’s fave 🎬film🎥, and my buddy pointed out how his is La Bamba.
Trivia: Did you know that the *star* of La Bamba, Lou Diamond💎 Phillips, is Pinoy, like yours truly?
Along with this classic, I got a package💽 that included The Buddy Holly Story, about one of the legends📀 who perished with “Hi-Tone”🎤 in that fatal flight✈️ crash.
My favorite 🎼jingles🎵 for RV, who achieved the 🇺🇸American 🌈Dream, include:
- Donna (who doesn’t like a song tribute to your true 💝love?)
- We Belong Together (which Selena sang a rendition as a child)
Recently, my student (tomorrow’s birthday boy) actually starred in his ’50s📻 school play as Ritchie!

This past weekend, I took my latest photo gig to my fam friend’s 50th birthday party ~ ’50s style! Before I strapped on my cam and shot snaps, I strapped on my suspenders and shot a smile!
Since I seldom have time to shop, much less the money to invest on a full-fledged poodle skirt complete with petticoat
I just created labels from photos of real French poodles who I professionally photographed!
Presenting: my micro mini poodle skirt on a budget!
To complete the look: my high school varsity letterman jacket * my grad ring on a chain * my cat bobby socks * my bowling shoes {Stevies by Steve Madden}
My beloved felines seemed to think that I was looking fine!
My big champ cat is the #BOMBdotCom ~ as in the beautiful #photobomb dot com!
Of course, my furr babies also make the purrfect models!
✌Deuces✌ That makes 2 for Tuesday Beauty!
