Got these lovely images back from Tigz Rice featuring my nipple pasties….. which you can find on my Temptress of Waikiki shop. The range on there is very small but if you check the gallery you will see i have done LOTS of pasties and i still them but mostly bespoke as it’s mostly burlesque performers who buy them and they tend want them to be unique and bespoke so they don’t look like everyone else! :) 

Here is Kitty Liquor in her Pearls & Swine: Temptress of Waikiki nipple pasties and c-string:

2012 has already proved to be the best year of my life! I am being presented with incredible opportunities some i can talk about and some i can’t as i want them to happen 1st! :)

I am seeing real results for all my efforts. Finally all the seeds i have planted over many years are turning into the most wonderful flowers! I have been collaborating with some very very talented people on shoots, i have had press, been contacted by serious high fashion magazines and TV in different countries (!?), got incredible feed back from customers, created new work i am very very proud of and i am in a state of inspiration that i can’t contain! I feel like the luckiest girl in the world…. 

I have met an incredible Manchester photographer called Layla Sailor: www.laylasailor.com i have just done my 1st collaboration with her. Her style tends to be very arty which i really like as i am interested in creating art with other people using my work:

I am going to be looking at setting up a studio as i have been working from home for the past few years and my spare room is no longer enough space for my business. This is a huge leap forward personally and in business…. you need quite a bit of faith when moving your business up to the next level.

I am in the process of redoing my website which is somewhat frustrating as i have so much more interesting stuff happening right now but i am hoping that this is the last website i will be doing for a few years! 

I am very good at keeping my Facebook page updated with my latest news: https://www.facebook.com/PearlsandSwine

I won’t write more though i have so much more to say and show but i don’t want to overwhelm you with too much jibber jabber!
