I learned Friday the Bettie Page Died. I actually took this news so hard that I was mostly unable to write about her and chose not to think of it, as a way of dealing with this loss. Even now, days later, I feel tears fill into the wells of my eyes. I think, for the most part, it is the lack of happiness that she faced, that is the part that saddens me the most. If anyone knows anything about her life (out of the spot light) they know that she was in a constant struggle to be faithful to her…

I hate the cold. But I live in Chicago. Born and raised actually. My friend tried to convince me to move to Vegas with her as a means of escaping the windy city. But I turn down every chance
Dont get me wrong. There are really great things about Chicago. The Lakefront. Deep Dish Pizza. Theatre (jERSEY bOYS is wildly popular, here) Even my great neighbor hood, Wicker Park. But I wanna see what else it out there.
I gotta say, I am really into this Pinup Lifestyle and i feel…

If there are any (Amateur or Professional/Experienced) photographers in Chicago, Please let me know because I cannot seem to find you here.
I have wasted a lot of time with Photographers who work to show me how professional they were only to be disappointed in the lack of professionalism in the quality of the work. From the untrained use of light to the lack of respect to me as a customer in a working professional relationship.
Don't get me wrong: as a beginner, I like the…

I sit here, very satisfied from the Thanksgiving Dinner I spent all day preparing and I realize my appreciation for $500 insurance policy I have purchased for myself.
You see, I have "installed" within my body, the most valuable invention of the 21st century. I have an IUD. For those of you ignorant of its majesty, I will fill you in. An Inner Uterine Device (IUD) or Mirena (It's Brand name) is a placed inside of my uterus and when a foreign object (i.e. sperm) comes swimming…

I used to spend a lot of my time with my grandmother because she was a housewife and she babysit me, especially in the summer when school was out. She would do her house work and I would dress up in my best clothes and use her dishes to have a fancy tea party. She would encourage me, by teaching me to make a menu for my tea party guests (or my cabbage patch kids). Then she gave me the idea that my guests may enjoy some entertainment. Then she did a spiffy little dance move. I later found out…

Okay so I am wondering where are all the Windy City (Chicago Based) Pinup Girls? Fans? Stylists? Makeup Artists? Clothing Designers? Accessories Makers? I think we should have some kind of networking Get-together. I would love to see who here would attend. Would you guys attend if it was at a bar like a social mixer and we met and exchanged business cards or whatever. I don't mind organizing it. I'm curious would participate if I did.
