Championed by Mat Fraser - Prince of Paralympic ceremonies - who will be waving his magic wand for the side of good… or is it evil? Do cum and see!

I won a photoshoot with Anna of The Roustabouts and decided I wanted to take along a wedding dress I bought off eBay last year for a wedding themed burlesque act. I didn’t have any photos or video of the act, and the dress takes up a lot of space at home, so I want to put all that white satin to good use. I wanted the sort of dark make-up that usually looks a bit wrong with a wedding dress - this sort of thing, only more creepy.

Images from the shoot will follow.

I love this photo. I’ve always wanted to do a cheesecake style shoot in a kitchen. Have never had a pretty enough (or clean enough!) kitchen to do it in though. One day. (Image via thelingerieaddict)

Spotted this photo of Patricia Arquette in True Romance (1993), posted by vintagegal. Love that movie.

“Amid the chaos of that day, when all I could hear was the thunder of gunshots, and all I could smell was the violence in the air, I look back and am amazed that my thoughts were so clear and true, that three words went through my mind endlessly, repeating themselves like a broken record: you’re so cool, you’re so cool, you’re so cool.”

I visited specialist burlesque boutique Burlique last week. Based in Camden’s Stables Market, Burlique sells costumes and accessories. They will also customise and/or add extra sparkle to pieces for you. Perfect for the showgirl with very little time!

Performing the fan dance and glitter pour finale of my ‘Absinthe’ act at La Reve last night, at London’s Cafe de Paris!

On arriving at the venue, I was surprised to discover that the stage had been moved to the opposite side of the room. Interesting, as just last week I’d been commenting that I thought that would be a better place for it, and suspected that’s where it had originally been when the venue opened decades ago. Apparently I was correct! Go me! ;p
