My burlesque night out


I was actually planning to have some pictures from my first burlesque event, but... my camera ran out of battery... :(

So I decided i would post some more outrageously beautiful Maya Hansen corsets ( I am now now a BIG fan !) That means that the three corset companies that truly"tickle my fancy" are Fairy Gothmother, Maya Hansen and the adorable What Katie did. And speaking of the latter read this great information I found on their website on how to find the perfect corset for your body.

It was great watching my first Burlesque performance ! We were a large and mixed crowd. Some gals had dressed up in their best vintage outfits. I wore my Stop Staring dress, drank champagne and hollered as loudly as all the rest ! :)

I must say it was a sensuous, funny and truly ( dare I say it ? ) feminist experience, as each lady unveiled only as much as she wanted to, as well as there were all kinds of bodies. It just reinforces my desire to eventually try myself ! :)

Also if you ever pass by Stockholm be sure to visit Pompom Parlour


Everything in the shop is exquisite and cheek-in-tongue fun ;)


There´s everything from retro make-up products from Paul & Joe to great corsets and lingerie

To more adventurous pieces... This is a kind of chair for two ( and no, I will not explain further ;)

They have so many beautiful objects like this dazzling Swarowski little burlesque ... whip. I end this post with a picture of Burlesque Queen Dita von Teese ( and as you admire and envy her tiny waist, remember what you have just read... )
