Welcome to my website and all things DeCarlo! I am a writer, actress, storyteller, and online clothing seller! And I have an alter ego, The Mad Fashionista, the second-most feared woman in fashion, after Anna Wintour!
My live show, "DIARY OF A MAD FASHIONISTA" ran in New York through Febuary and March 2008. receiving major media coverage! On February 28, 2007, there was a profile of me in the New York Times (link below), and on February 29 a review of the show on Glamour.com! Kirk Shannon-Butts gave the play "an enthusiatic two thumbs up!"
My next appearance as the Mad Fashionista was at: The world famous MANHATTAN VINTAGE CLOTHING SHOW & SALE, Friday April 25 and Saturday April 26, at the Metropolitan Pavilion!
There were over 85 top vintage and textile dealers there from around the country! I was there as the guest of MATINEE NEW YORK, a top vintage dealer.
I sold my own PLUS SIZE vintage clothing, the absolute BEST of my collection! It was fun and exhausting, but I got to meet some of the most important fashion folks in New York and sell some gorgeous vintage clothing!
There's more Mad Fashionista in the works, so stay tuned!
What else is happening in Summer 2008?
Almost too much to mention! In addition to my Ebay store, I have opened a NEW venue on Specialist Auctions:

There, the discerning buyer will discover fine fashion from the 1930s through the 1980s, plus beautiful contemporary clothes, fine jewelry and accessories! Here Is The RSS Feed For My Gorgeous Store! See all of my items for sale
And there are new creative projects for the Fashionista in the works! For starters, here is a "Flashdance" parody, starring the Mad Fashionista!
"Diary of A Mad Fashionista," my blog, has received over 30,000 hits and has a world-wide readership.
I also have a MySpace page (doesn't everyone)? Actually, I have two, one as myself and one as the Mad Fashionista. I use both pages to showcase my Ebay and Specialist Auction stores, where I sell gorgeous plus size clothing, both contemporary and vintage.
Meet BUCKY THE WONDERDOG, my miniature pinscher and the Ruler Of All He Surveys (except for the cats). Bucky helps me run my online operations, including "Elisa's Bodacious House of Style," where I sell beautiful, sexy plus-size womens' apparel, both contemporary and vintage, and vintage jewelry and accessories!
As a large lady myself, I know how hard it is to find clothes that don't make me look like a) a huge dark blob or b) a giant toddler.
