I'm back on the East Coat and loving it! Just got back from a couple days on the Jersey Shore, I actually got a teensy bit of a tan! I still am the palest lady I know (besides go-go Amy), but less blueish! We got bunk beds put into the back room of the tour bus, all set for our next tour to the Harley Davidson rally in Denver, CO next month! My parents were so impressed to hear I was opening for Foreigner! They were less stoked to hear I'd be at a biker festival, they seem to think they are still dangerous hoods like in a 60s beach movie, hahaha. Here are my upcoming tour dates:

I just put up a couple photos of me on Bettina.ca that were taken after my first performance at the coolest (and only?) vintage bowling alley/punk rock venue, Asbury Lanes, this one is my favourite!



I also added a bunch more stuff to my shop, like tshirts and stickers, here's a pic of sexy Insectavora, one of the sideshow gals in Pretty Things Peepshow that I travel the country with, in my ladies tank:


So stoked to start sewing all the orders I just got in for Coquette Faux Furriers, it's been a while since I've been stationary enough to do that! I just started wholesaling with a new vintage shop in Switzerland, that's exciting!

Hope yall are having a good summer!
