Do not even think we’re sleeping on Queen Ann, aka Ann Richards, aka 45th governor of Texas and overall spirit animal. RIP.
We don’t know about you, but last Sunday’s Golden Globes felt, to us, at least a little bit reminiscent of last year’s Women’s March–a public display of sisterhood and girls supporting girls. Last January, we put the world (and, ahem, the White House) on notice: We’re here, and we’re not going anywhere. On Sunday night, we added two more words to the dialogue: Time’s up.
That’s the movement you’ve undoubtedly heard about, and we’re here for it. Seeing activists walk the red carpet, getting goosebumps from Oprah’s speech, and basking in Natalie Portman’s shade (yas, queen) warmed our hearts and reinvigorated our commitment to the cause of raising each other up. If you, too, are about proclaiming your membership in the resistance—or just celebrating feminine power—these picks are for you, sister.
Abby Ledoux traded Canada’s border for Mexico’s when she moved to Texas from northwestern Vermont in November 2017 to join the staff at Houstonia.
An alumna of Emerson College’s journalism program in Boston, Abby was previously associate editor of three weekly newspapers in her home state of Vermont. There, she covered everything from Bernie Sanders to the heroin epidemic and won numerous state and regional awards for her work, including the Vermont Press Association’s 2014 Rookie of the Year. She was also an investigative reporting fellow at the New England First Amendment Coalition.
Today, Abby is excited to explore Houston’s vibrant, diverse culture (and shopping scene). Aside from fashion and design, she’s passionate about politics, hip hop and Mexican food. She believes leopard is a neutral and red lipstick can fix almost anything.
