What's Up Our Skirt?
In 2023, Lali Safavi, Diane Pappafotis and Pamela Bausher created SkirtSoFlo, a magazine specifically for South Florida's LGBTQ women. Woman-owned and operated, our mission is to shine the spotlight on the contributions that our LGBTQ community makes to the arts, literature, music, food, business and life that we see all around us each day. We do this to connect and uplift our South Florida women's community, and to celebrate gay South Florida as a mecca for arts and culture, as well as sun and fun.
SkirtSoFlo has been a labor of love from its inception. We are a core group of volunteers who create, produce and distribute the magazine monthly, and offer it free to the public. Our support comes solely from advertisers' dollars and donations. We only ask that you support our advertisers as they support us and our community.

Hello Skirt family! With Miami Art Week around the corner, we want to dedicate our final issue of 2024 to South Florida’s women artists. We have loved bringing you the stories of amazing individuals in our community and this issue is the culmination of an amazing year!
With the holidays approaching fast, it’s hard to believe the whirlwind year we’ve had, meeting and writing about so many of you, and we are so thankful for your unwavering support.
As we look ahead to 2025, we are very excited to ring in the new year with a new Skirt endeavor that will deepen our support of women in South Florida’s incredible LGBTQ+ community. Details coming soon!
Wishing you all a happy and safe holiday season and a very happy New Year!
