Remember years ago when I was in that bikini contest? It was all online voting? And I owned the shit outta that contest! All because of the love and votes that I got from you all! I won $500 at a time when I really needed it...we had just moved to LA from Philly and had to repair our transmission, I hadn't been able to find a job at the time...it was rough and it was a much needed victory!
Well, now I'm in 2 online voting contests and thankfully it's a much better time in my life! I'm doing this mostly for fun...mostly and I'd just also really love to perform in the LA Burlympics and I'd LOVE a crown and sash so I wanna get into the Ink N Iron pinup competition! Woosh...that's a mouthful!
So, I'm here to once more ask for you love and votes please help me out and have a bit of fun while voting for me! And if you would like, please also tell your friends! And come see me perform, darn it

Hey!!! I'm in the running for the Ink-N-Iron pin up pageant! And I'm on the first page! I hate asking for votes, but the last time that I did I won the award for "Most Sensual" at the Dallas Burlesque Festival!!! You guys and gals helped with that! Thank you again
So, I'd like to ask you again to vote if you see fit and spread the word as well.

I've not been to Ink-N-Iron yet and I'd love my first time to be as a contestant in this awesome pageant!

So, here's the link: Ink-N-Iron Pin Up Pageant

Now, like my usual posts, here are some pictures!!!

It's that time again!

I've been busy as usual with work, classes and dancing up a storm! The holidays were wonderful! We went to Hawaii right before thanksgiving. First time and we fell in love!

Most recently, I was accepted to perform at The Dallas Burlesque Festival and I am beyond ecstatic! Some of favorite performers are from Dallas! Such an honor to share the stage with these amazing performers.

Even more recent than that...we've adopted a little pooch! She adorable and super sweet! My kitty baby Ally even likes her

So, as I like to do, here are some photos of what's been goin on!

















I also did a burlesque legend tribute calendar!










Dallas! Here I come!


Making minor repairs on the costume and new dance moves to the act!






Now for the part that I hate...I am gonna ask you to vote for me in The Dallas Burlesque Festival if you feel that it is fitting!
I thank you in advance!


Vote for me!!!

I'll be posting pictures of my Dallas adventures!

Ps: please let me know of any vegan Dallas recommendations!!! I'm absolutely gonna check out The Spiral Diner!

I really need to update My vegan recipe blog!

I've been caught up lately trying to build a new burlesque act around this great instrumental song! I have an idea for the costume but I don't know if it fits this song that I really, really want to do, but I can't think of a costume that really goes with the song! Ugh, does that make sense?

I need to get some inspiration!

Ps: I am trying to book a mini southwest burlesque tour and people I've contacted have been kinda flaky...I don't know why I'm surprised...

I'm trying to do LA (of course), Vegas, maybe Arizona and New Mexico, Texas and New Orleans. I really hope I can make this happen...I'd love to have it in the spring and I'd love to meet some southwest SG peeps!
