FOUR THINGS RIGHT NOW
(Or, to be precise, four things earlier today. I'm in the harbour right now.)
I like to give myself a little extra bit of weekend; take another Sunday morning those Mondays that I'm going to the evening shift. And so I did today - made a grat breakfast (soured whole milk (viili) and blue berries are such a good combination that right now I can't think of anything better!), took it easy, resulting in having to rush and stress like crazy later on in order to get done what needed to be done before work. Sigh.
The more the better - I burlesqified these heels for our new routine. And four more pairs. (It was fun the first two-and-a-half-pairs, the rest more painful. But, still more to come; more to be done!)
One of Kerttu's photos, with us Itty-Bitties swimming, is on the cover of 6degress. The article is about burlesque and the upcoming festival.
Meanwhile, the dog is smoking in the blue room.

THE FAIREST OF THEM ALL
The Helsinki Burlesque Festival 2011 started today with the opening of Kerttu Malinens burlesque themed photo exhibition. She has been taking pictures on and off stage, backstage and on various locations for a couple of years. 
The exhibition is at Jukka Male museo in Kaapeli.
Lola Vanilla and Lola Vanilla.
Tinkerbell and Tinkerbell.
Fiona and Fiona.
Me and me! From this shoot.
Fiona and I were both wearing lots of glitter and sparkle.And she was also wearing a hat of her own design, of course. I wore a vintage gold lamé dress that I got form my grandmother. And my sparkling shoes too, may I add. Like I said, lots of sparkle.
There are so many amazing photos, so I really recommend stopping by!The exhibition is open from 30.1 to 27.2, nine to nine daily.
The master herself.

SHOOT!
I've had a weekend filled with photo shoots and also managed to sneak a show in between. Now it's time to sleep a bit, phew!
First we had an shoot with the oh-so-magnificent Atelieri O.Haapala, inspired by old erotic postcards.
Jackie mesmerizes backstage -and I have rubber arms as usual.
(Backstage and set pics by Saara Salmi.)
Today (or, yesterday by now I guess) we had an amazing late night water shoot in Yrjönkadun uimahalli with amazingly talented photographer Kerttu Malinen, who we will work with some more later on too.
Afterwards. Very wet.
Camera covering very glitter-heavy eyelids.
There will be a third fabulous shoot now on Monday night, butI think I will have to let vanity loose and family win and celebrate the Indepedence evening at home with Eddi and his boys.
