I’m really bad at remembering to post

House stuff is moving along nicely, hoping to wallpaper atleast one room this weekend and get the hardware up in the bathroom.

In Latex-y news; I ordered a ton of Radical Rubber sheeting, 1/2 of which made it here today before Fedex realized it needed some paperwork from me. They are currently holding my second box in Tennessee. I lent some of my pieces to Miss Mischief, excellent pics in return. And I have a ton of Collaborations and paid work to do this month and moving thru July. Project Cat Fight is first on my list of Collabs, then a bunch of other projects, Hopefully a Magazine Publication *fingers crossed*

Building up steam

Is harder then it seems! I am successfully tackling organizing the house, in so much that most of the boxes are unpacked completely or are hidden from site…cheating a bit I admit but most of its books and I’ve no book case yet.

Last week has been messaging people, organizing an RR order so I can work on Secret Project and finally bring to life the sketches in my book. Watch out world! things are coming soon!

And….Break!

So in other news I need to pack everything up for a bit. I have things going out on loan but for the next month or so I shall be unable to do much physical creating.

Why?

Cause I’m getting a house!

That’s right, No more apartment living for this girl! No longer will neighbors vacuum up stairs at odd hours and stomp around in heels/boots for many a pacing hours. And never again will I hear things be thrown at the adjacent wall when the super bowl goes sours or try and decide what that strange yiffing noise is. Best of all never worrying about an annoyed landlord! I can paint, Sing, hammer holes, ect when I want, how I want, and where I want!

Also really hoping to snag some artist space for the making of latex, the new town we are moving to has pretty good rates for a full year. *cross fingers*

Many more pieces and creative Collaborations coming up but I’m on gluing Hiatus as of this weekend ;_;

I leave you will a silly shot I was really hoping Geeks are Sexy would use

Pics galore

So pics are up from the show! I picked out my fav of course and played around in PhotoShop.

During the prep for the show we got some great news too, WE GOT THE HOUSE!!!

Large amounts of happy dancing, and screaming ensued

That does however mean in about 1 week, Rubenesque Latex has to go on hiatus. I am hoping to get artist space and move out of the house really giving this a chance to get up off the ground.

Here’s a small smattering of pics from the runway


Two week wrap up!

Well that was a crazy 2 weeks. Started off with the RI Fashion Flea (which the pics are up btw, here Just click on 2012, and my Banner) The show was nuts! I have so many things I would have done different in both positive and negative. So with all my new found experience I’m going to be writting up a New Designers Guide to the Fetish Flea’s Fashion Show. Might even end up as the thing given to new folks as Jim pretty interested in the idea.

The following weekend was the Fashion Show at Dark Odyssey Winter Fire way down in DC. We went down early and stayed in a very ritzy hotel. They had an espresso machine and a wine tasting down the lobby and upon leaving we got chocolate lolly pop. Very Classy ^.^

Ended up with 4 models and co-oped a 5th the day of. This was the first year for the DO show in like 2 yrs, so there were some bumps, but overall really awesome. I think the best part was showing my stuff next to Klawtex, a really talented Designer/business owner in NY. Reaffirmed in my mind my stuffs pretty rad to just a very different look and feel.

And SO then we came home, and found the person watching our Cats accidentally let them out.

Now we are pretty typical lesbians in the sense our kitties are our babies, it was good the guy found the smaller kitten but our first adopted the Maine Coon was still no wear to be found. almost 2 days later he was found, we had plastered the area with posters, and stuffed them in everyone mailbox, and as it turns out our Kitty Had wandered into someone’s office building 0.o The poor guy he snuggled up on almost had a heart attack because really who expects a cat in their office building. He brought him back and its so nice to have him home. He smells pretty bad tho, someone needs a bath.

Tomorrow I will have pics to share!

Fun photoshoot shot

Well I ended up so busy at my shoot in January I never managed to get and backstage shots. Thankfully Nyxx and photographer Tammy were fab and got some fun shots for me.

Now that the Fetish Flea fashion show is over I can get the gallery up so pics can be all up for all to see.

I’m also going to write up a New Designers guide to showing at the Fetish Flea. It was a great experience but it was very hectic. Things like parking, timing, dates and just overall notes to help ones show go smooth. Once doneI’ll send it on to the the Staff and maybe they will use it for others.

Today is also a big day because I submitted my first pics for web publication ^.^ Hopefully the folks at Geeks Are Sexy will like them enough to blog them.

Its all pink

With Savannah Sly Gotta love her encased in Latex
The Pink bathroom set is just lovely, I love when a new one finds its way into my inbox ^.^

Just a few more days till the Fetish Flea Fashion show, and barring some accessories I think I am in good shape to make this all work. After that Nyxx will set up the gallery and I can post up images!

Dark Odyssey Winter Fire

SO I’ve already talked about the Fetish flea fashion show, I was really excited that Princess Kali of Kink Academy was going to be walking in my show there. Sadly she is crazy busy on Insanity Tour pt2 gathering some awesome new content for all you kinksters out there. But she made some emails and got me a spot in the Dark Odyssey Winter Fire Fashion show!

This is a great opportunity not only because it gives me some more exposure but I will be using all new models which means more people will be wearing by designs and getting an up close look and feel.

But tomorrow I have a fashion show shoot( w/ Rubicat photography), hopefully all my models can make it there but its gonna be a blast anyways!

on the Mend

Finally got myself into see the Dr, was delayed by the Long weekend. A weeks worth of pills later and 2 days into that weeks worth and I’m starting to feel better. Better enough to start doing finishing touches on my line atleast, so adding cuffs, applique, setting grommet holes ectect

Sickness has made me put off final fittings for my models which is annoying, some of them live farther then I can get easily and I need to figure out how to make that happen. Not that that I doubt m skills, but bodies are not always shaped the way one expects, and that part of what I want my line to represent. The fact that bodies are not perfect and that ok!

I have about 8 days to finish everything and Finish the whole lot before the shoot on the 27th.
Tick..
Tick…

Brain worms

I think I caught the plague.

Seriously, for the past week I’ve been stuffed up, achy, migraine-ish and all around just miserable. To the point Dipping my brush in paint was actually to hard for me to do. Not enjoying this in the least. Never mind the negative effect its had on normal work(4 sick days and counting) and my production of my line. I was hoping to have everything finished this weekend so I could enjoy doing embellishments and applique. But the thought of Hammering in Grommets has been beyond me.

Minor model switch ups, sickness, and working on finding music is all the work I’ve been able to do. I am blessed with a great partner that use to DJ so this very cold Sunday she is mixing tracks for me. The use of Metallics in my line has lended well to using Dubstep for the runway and should be pleasantly different from the rest.

Oh! and Its official now! My logo is up on the web for the show!

I really like my logo is clean and crisp.

12days to finish everything off and do a pre-shoot. I’ll be sure to post of some behind the scenes shots ^.^
