Roxy Rhinestone is one of Ireland most established Burlesque performers and has been performing nationally and internationally since 2005. Her performances combine elements of classic burlesque with a modern comic twist. The good news for those of you interested in learning some skills of a sultry-shaking-it nature is that Roxy will be passing on her knowledge of performance and tease in a 3 hour workshop for beginners!
All props will be provided, except nipple tassels (<one of my most favourite sentences on this blog ever!!)…. So if you have some bring them and if not there will be some available for sale at the class at prices from 20 euro upwards.
The class is on this Saturday, 28th August , starting at 10am until 1pm and will cost 35 euro per person.
Places are limited so book now by emailing Roxy at roxyrhinestone@gmail.com
If I wasn’t working at the Ultimate Girls’ Day Out in the RDS this weekend, I think I’d toddle along myself!

I have been meaning to post about Conor Nolan and David Wall for around a year now, ever since I saw their incredible work for Circus store. I love their typography and, yes, to sound like a complete nerd, how clean their work is..I also love the pixellated diamonds in the last image, which was part of a campaign for Red Bull.
Conor studied in the National College of Art & Design, Dublin and Elisava Escola Superior de Disseny, Barcelona, graduating with a first-class honours degree and commendation, while David studied in the National College of Art & Design, Dublin and Lahti University of Applied Sciences, Finland, graduating in 2002 with a first-class honours degree. Since they founded a studio together in March 2006, the focus of Conor & Davidʼs work has been to create thoughtful, rational, content-driven graphic design for print and screen, for a wide variety of clients including Open House Dublin, Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane, The Irish Museum of Modern Art, The Model Arts and Niland Gallery, The National College of Art & Design, National Campaign for the Arts, Irish Architecture Foundation, Architectural Association of Ireland…jeez…nice line up!
Check out the rest of their incredible body of work on their website <here>

I’m not doing Fancy Friday til tomorrow. I’m all worded and image sourced out and I like to think about things for a bit before attempting to put them in to the words that will get my rambling thoughts across. I also want to be sure what those rambling thoughts are, as they have been changing a lot this week - it’s been a very interesting time in my little life.
So I admit defeat. Here is 10, 11 and 12….. 13 will be Fancy Saturday.
Thanks for joining in any way and next Friday 13th I’ll decide to do it BEFORE 1pm that day and have stuff prepared! Or not. I might just ignore this date for ever more. : )

I like the scribbles, the font and the look, the posters, the cross.
The cross could potentially become a wet afternoon’s project.

Incredible shoot from the archives of Dazed & Confused magazine. There is something about the slick evil feeling from black feathers that is just a bit of a thrill.

Thank you Stereomood , for introducing me to Maxence Cyrin. He’s a French pianist who’s covered artists such as Justice, MGMT and My Bloody Valentine. I really like his version of ‘No Cars Go’ by Arcade Fire and absolutely LOVE his version of ‘Where is my mind..’ by the Pixies.
As for Stereomood - as Biggie would say if he mixed up the tenses of the lyrics of ’Juicy’… and eh…if he was still alive : “If you didn’t know, now you know.” I only just discovered it via ‘Luc’s Chlif’ and I don’t how I lived without it before now. Well, that may be unnecessarily dramatic but it is pretty amazing. I think I may have had too much coffee today.

I’m slighty in lust with the defragmented approach to shoots at the moment, would love to do stuff like this in the new studio. (add us on facebook >here< if you like!)..images above from Fashion Gone Rogue.

I would quite like to recreate this George Washington meets an aged Diana Ross look for a shoot in the new studio (which is opening on Friday - scary biscuits.)

I just love Moselle’s photography, and no, not just because we did some shoots together! I think she is just incredibly talented, with a serious appreciation and understanding of capturing colour and interest in her images. I think these three are my favourites, but it’s very hard to choose! See more of her work >here< and >here<

I do not need any more prints - but this one from Studio Violet is just too dinky. I think I’ll put it in the bathroom of the new studio…
It cost €27.00 including shipping >here<.
