Welcome to Litsy!

#SeptemBowie #day18 #JeanGenie Playing catch up on challenges.This is the first book that comes to mind when I hear this song.Set in the mid 60s it's about the rivalry between two gangs of young boys, the Greasers & the Socs.When that rivalry moves into bloodshed and murder, Ponyboy & Johnny, both Greasers, go on the run with the help of Dally, another Greaser. It's a sad book with a lot of death & loss, but also loyalty & hope. And lots of denim!

As a fan of Project Runway, I love Tim Gunn's gentlemanly ways. I just knew that he would have something to say about jeans! "The basic denim wardrobe requires two fabulous pairs, one for dressing up and one for running around. If you wear jeans every day, of course, your collection should be larger. However, we feel that even the most ardent denim lover does not need more than ten pairs." #septembowie #jeangenie

Those are jean shorts that Gene Belcher wears, no? #jeangenie #septembowie

The best I could do for #jeangenie #septembowie

Bowie is the Reading Genie in his blue jeans on this ALA poster. Too bad he's reading Dostoevsky and not Jean Genet!

I'm thinking a #jeangenie must have made these pants.

#septembowie #jeangenie Thanks @batsy for reminding me of Genet!This little gem of a book,only 67 pages,written by Choukri in conversation with Jean who he meets in the streets of Tangier, translated by Paul Bowles👍with intro by William Burroughs 👍.Love Thief's Journal and Our Lady of Flowers and that Fassbinders ❤️last film was Querelle .

#Jeangenie immediately made me think of my good friend Ignatius and his stint at Levy Pants. I just love Ignatius and will use him for any possible prompt. #septembowie

I love Anderson Cooper. I used to watch him on Channel One in homeroom in high school!

His mother, #JeanGenie Gloria Vanderbilt, has had a fascinating life. I thought this was a great audioread.
