It was the sound of a car like the rush of a faucet that brought her back to the road. Headlights arched off the eastbound exit. She plucked the coils in her hair, quickly flattening from the humidity of the fields. Three steps to the edge of the road. She pulled her petticoat straight and brushed along the skirt seams. She pressed the corners of her eyelashes. Perfect. The back line of her stockings bisected each leg from thigh to knee to calf, until disappearing inside her gold peeptoe heels.…

It is with great reluctance that I am advertising this beautiful corset. It always was a tiny little bit on the small side as I could only just get the modesty panel to cover all the skin at the back, I had hoped maybe I would lose a couple of pounds, and I then gained weight before finding out I was pregnant. I don't realistically think I will be able to get into it again.
It has only been worn for a total of 7 photo shoots for about 1-2 hours maximum. It is in excellent condition…

I have been a avid photographer for some time. Mainly static scapes, cars, & trains. This on top of sketching and painting for about 20 years.
In an attempt to move in the direction of pin-up what suggestions could you provide?
I shoot with a Nikon D90[kit lens]. I have been considering a good fisheye, and possibly a wide angle to get up close to the subject while capturing most of it[A common problem when photographing trains]. Any reccomendations?
Is it…

Finding The Right Dress
Matt and I are not your "typical" couple - we love hot rods, pin-up girls, swing music and tattoos...so a typical wedding dress just wouldn't do. I started my search by googling Vintage Wedding Dresses, '50s Style Wedding Dresses, Old Hollywood Style Wedding Dresses, etc. and found some really fun dresses. Here are some fun sites to check out for everything other then "typical."

SEATTLE SNOW AGAIN 02/26/09
So I'm sitting in the ER looking at a blank TV screen with the pain medication starting to take effect, wondering if I will need surgery. This was last Monday morning. Rewind. I had spent the whole evening tossing and turning with massive abdominal pains. It started shortly after my wife and I went to bed, as a strong stinging sensation just below my stomach. At first I thought it was some kind of constipation, but it…

Thanks to the help of some amazing people and a venue that has taken a chance on me, I have the opportunity to host my first show!
Bergamot Burlesque will be a variety show featuring burlesque gals, comedians and maybe a juggler or two. Each show will have a theme and the acts will vary based on the theme...

We are currently opening our doors on Saturdays by appointment. If you live local to San Dimas, CA and would like to set up an appointment, please contact Mandie at 909.599.0715

I am INSANELY excited for Ama and Victoria to get here in March! This is big for me. I am trying not to behave like a psychotic fan. You know, the kind that babbles incoherently and bubbles over with anticipation in the presence of greatness? Oh, WAIT..... I think I'm there already. Crap.
Anywho, thank you Betty Red for introducing me and helping make this a reality AND thank you for the generous donations from my dear ones. You are all AMAZING.

So, I've figured it out.
I'm just stressed. All my zen is just masking it. I've been irritable and cranky and antisocial but needy b/c I'm stressed.
My car still isnt' done, which is annoying, but manageable b/c my fantastic friend, M, has lent me his car. I would be in such a bind otherwise. so after finally hounding J I found out the part still isnt' there which is why he didnt' call. I'm irritated. This is just such a f*****' chore. I’m also irritated b/c I need to…

So, I think I have ultimately decided that instead of spending all my time (and money) on cute pieces for my 1950s / rockabilly wardrobe, I am going to design and make my own. It would more than likely prove to be a lot less expensive, and I would be wearing original pieces that no one else has :)
By the way, Anna and I had our faerie shoot on the 15th. We designed and made 10 different costumes and wings (although two models didn't show up .. thanks guys), and got some outstanding…

When I use the term "manclothes" I refer not to macho ball caps, football jerseys, etc. I would simply like to go into a clothing store and find garments that could possibly be suited for an adult man that may have a modicum of taste. In other words, man clothes and not "I really want to be a hip-hop star" clothes or " I want to look like Ryan Seacrest or the Jonas Brothers" clothes.
For example, the other day I went into an establishment and saw a vest that at first glance seemed decent.…

Sipping hot tea
reminds me of
early morning chats
laughter
sharing common
knowing looks
these times were sacred
something real
Flocks of geese
a brisk breeze blowing over a frigid lake.
Freezing fingers close to frostbite
gripping a hot chocolate
Shaking
maybe from the cold or
maybe from excitement
doesn't matter
A touch here and there
affection
feels more than lust
a stroke of the collar…
