“We’re all born naked and the rest is drag!”
This RuPaul quote is true, for fashion and really everything else, as the spice of life is all in how you decorate your home, body and life.
In that spirit, legendary drag queens, “Ru-girls,” podcast hosts and stars of “The Trixie & Katya Show” can add personal shoppers to their long list of accolades.
Trixie Mattel and Katya Zamo have teamed up with Etsy to curate the ultimate shopping guide for your home, wardrobe and for gifting. This comes just in time for Pride month, which began June 1 and lasts through the entire month — although your home can stay festive all year long, as these picks are truly timeless.
“In our curated Etsy collection shoppers can expect to find gay stuff, patterns, and pink, lots of pink,” said Mattel. “It’s important to support small businesses because they like to work it hunty, and because they’re nice and you don’t want to steal from them. It’s like the fish that hitches a ride on the shark and grooms him,” added Zamo.
The Etsy page spans everything from shirts and socks to earrings and accessories and then branches out to home decor, lighting, gifts and more. Shop either Trixie or Katya’s pick, or a mix of them both for basics and statement pieces you won’t find anywhere else. The best part is that each retailer is a small business owner, creating unique and handmade pieces, with many of the chosen sellers also identifying with the LGBTQIA+ community.
Read on for our top picks from Trixie and Kayta and then, in the words of RuPaul, start your engines and let the best shopper — win!
