The Virgo Birthday Extravaganza!

[ 11 September 2008 ]

Gala Darling & Nubby Twiglet present…

You're invited!
Amazing flyer by Star!

That’s right! This Saturday, we’re throwing a huge birthday bash & Virgo wedding extravaganza in Central Park! I’m turning 25 on Saturday, & Nubby is the big 27 the day after — what better reason to throw a fabulous party?! Come picnic with us!

There will be plentiful cupcakes from Sugar Sweet Sunshine (best cupcakes in the city, & trust me, I’ve done the leg-work!), balloons, a lewd cake, riotously good times & of course, lots of awesome people! We’ll all be dressed to the nines, shocking passers-by & generally not acting our age!

All of the “lady blog” crew will be there — me, Nubby, Gilda, Doe, Star & Marie (the latter two are coming all the from the west coast!), as well as a bunch of our favourite New Yorkers! Our friend Bianca Alexis (who took a series of Nubby & I on the roof of my building when I was here last) will be acting as official paparazzo, so get ready to POSE!

We’re going to go on a carousel-riding mission later in the day, too…

You’re all so, so welcome to come along! We’d really love to see you there, & have you celebrate our birthdays with us!

Can’t wait to see you!

(Strawberry Fields is situatued on the west side of the park, spanning from 71st to 74th Streets. Here’s a map!)


Super-love & cupcakes,
Gala <3

  30. I wish I could go! It would be so easy for me- except I have dance and then my friend’s birthday party to go to later.
    I’ll be there in spirit- dreaming of cupcakes and meeting gala and nubby while melting away in dance class…

  34. Congrats!

    and happy birthday Gala and Nubby!

    <3 Brooke · Sep 11, 02:49 PM · #

  35. I’m there! Perfect excuse to wear my gorgey bright purple silk dress.

    <3 Vicki · Sep 11, 02:53 PM · #

  36. you two remind me of my bfffffff and i! we are both cancers with birthdays on the 19th and 20th!

    <3 Maggie · Sep 11, 03:04 PM · #

  37. I think you said somewhere (I think on your twitter account) that this might become a yearly tradition, is that true?

    Because I’m only an ickle 16 and have no funds to get there and probably would have to be in school even if I had the money D=

    Anyways you guys are fucking hilarious and amazing for making a “joke” into a huge party in NY. I’ll be attending in spirit! And I expect as many photos and videos as humanly possible to be made during this. Make sure on your honeymoon not to get to crazy =P

    <3 Valentina · Sep 11, 03:42 PM · #

  38. Nubby Twiglet is so hot that even a flyer version of her is achingly cool.

    Loving that the belt and licorice strap shoes are making a cameo in the pic!

    <3 Vane · Sep 11, 04:29 PM · #

  40. I am less then 30 minutes away from this and yet I have to work, which is terribly sad. Have a wonderful time, and happy happy birthday!

    <3 Ayesha · Sep 11, 04:34 PM · #

  41. Damn! Happy happy happy birthday for then from a fellow virgo (though sadly one a few too many countries away from attending the party!

    <3 Hannahbee · Sep 11, 05:16 PM · #

  42. woaah, it will be awesome, you’ll have the best time ever :D! I hope I could go, but meh (I would need about 1000 dollars just to fly there!); post lots of pictures about it! congratulationss :)

    <3 fran · Sep 11, 05:23 PM · #

  43. that picture is simply amazing! the detail is beautiful! Even has your tattoos, amazing. Wish I could be there. Maybe if I spent about $300 dollars on gas and got up really early… Oh well, I can’t wait to see the pictures. Happy birthday!

  47. You and I share a birthday! I’m in New Zealand though, does that mean I get to celebrate it earlier? Have a fantastic day! I’m having an ice cream (of which I have made 15 varieties) party!

    <3 Neptune · Sep 12, 02:09 AM · #

    <3 darshana · Sep 12, 08:02 AM · #

  52. Ms. Nubby’s birthday is apparently the same as mine! Whoohoo! Sadly, I am a billion miles from anywhere near you guys, so I shan’t attend. What a shame. Have fun and great birthday wishes to you both.

    <3 Batopus · Sep 12, 11:15 AM · #

  53. you two are out of control. what a flyer!
    :)

    happy birthday to you both!

    <3 lady coveted · Sep 12, 11:17 AM · #

  54. I’ll be there, I’m really excited. It will be surreal. I’m even taking a crappy old dress and turning it into a hot pants jumpsuit in anticipation.

    <3 Ipsum · Sep 12, 01:13 PM · #

  55. I’ll be there and i’m even bringing my friend sarah and maybe my mom! haha :]

    yayayayay excitementtt!

    that invite is so hilariously cute and gorrrgeous!

    <3 Nikkidee! · Sep 12, 02:03 PM · #

  56. Aw, Gala, I so wish I could be there! I’m not from NYC but I’m visiting and Saturday is my last day here! I’ve booked myself a table at Dr. Sketchy’s and that starts at 3pm so I doubt I have time to make both events :-( I had been hoping to catch a glimpse of your pink head while I was here! And now to know that Nubby and Star will be there as well! At least I can add Molly Crabapple to my list of celebrity sightings in New York! :-D

    <3 Katoo · Sep 13, 03:49 AM · #

  57. hey gala, i’m seriously bummed i can’t be there to celebrate, but i can’t wait to see all the pictures! have fun and happy bday to you and nubby!!! :D

    <3 nerdyspice · Sep 13, 04:06 AM · #

  58. i will try my hardest to be there. i just need to figure out what to wear.
