Stripper Shoes for kids....

Well, not really a shoe, but a phone. Not exactly what I would want my daughter talking on....but I want one!
What is really funny is the website says "childhood dreams delivered"
Awesome.

In their defense, it is supposed to be a disco shoe and it does resemble a disco shoe more than a stripper shoe. Still, the picture of the little girl is priceless. It is currently on back order. Hmmm ...wonder why?
Maybe its because of Wendy's review.
....she gave it 5 out of 5 stars


Just like my work shoes!

Arrested for pole dancing in the subway....F-yeah!

I just read this story and went, you go girl...kinda. I mean I respect the message that she is sending....but why didn't she take the tips!?!?
...Kidding!!
I don't know if this was the best way to go about it, but I certainly respect her message and kudos to her for getting the press to bring it to light...that is where it all starts.
Good luck goddess!

SANTIAGO (Reuters) - A stripper who danced on the poles of Santiago subway trains to challenge the prudishness of Chilean society was arrested on Thursday during one of her lightning performances.

Monserrat Morilles, 26, surprised subway riders all week stripping to skimpy underwear, but she refused tips.

She said she was protesting a lack of tolerance in Chile, one of Latin America's most conservative societies where the first generation since the Pinochet dictatorship is reaching adulthood.

"This is just a beginning. We are starting an idea here that will grow and be developed further," she told Reuters as police and subway guards surrounded her.

The professional pole dancer worked quickly all week to avoid arrest, getting on at one station, finding a subway car with no children on it and stripping in time to exit at the next station.

Chilean media dubbed her "La Diosa del Metro" or Subway Goddess. She called her performances "happy minutes."

"Chile is still a pretty timid country," said her manager Gustavo Pradenas. "People aren't very extroverted and we want to take aim at that and make Chile a happier country."

Victoria's Secret...burning bras!!!

Well, not in the I'm a hippie liberating my boobs way, but in the oh my god my breast is on fire with pain and kumquat sized welts kinda way. Youch!
So it seems they had some formaldehyde laden bras that scarred the boobs of miss Ritter and a dozen other gals. At the time of the article the two products in question were still on the selves. But I did a search and couldn't find either...hmmmmm.
Again, as I have said before, if anyone is suing them it should be for their make-me-wanna-rip-my-eyes-out-cuz-I-look-so-horrid dressing rooms.

Here's the article from ABC news.

Holy cow! Strip club gets sued by American Idol.. Really?

This place, Palazio, is the sister club of the club I worked for in TX. I knew the owners and I still know girls who work there. It is also where we go on our field trip. Sooo funny. They are getting sued because they are running a weekly amateur contest called stripper idol.
Does AI not have anything better to do with their time?

This article was pretty funny too
http://www.quickdfw.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/localnews/stories/011209dntswidolsuit.1b7075f9.html

It's been a while

Well... I've been busy!
I've been wanting to post and tell you so many things!
But I'll start with this. I recently ...well, 2 months ago, had a lady contact me. She wanted to take weekly classes to learn how to be an exotic dancer. My first reaction was please let me discourage you. The business will take so much out of you. It will make you hate yourself. Don't do it! I get a lot of calls .. girls wanting to dance. I tell them the truth, what it did to me. How all of the girls I know who are retired feel the same way. Also, we don't teach aspiring dancers. It is a different skill set, different moves. Our clients are dancing for their loved ones so they can touch, they don't have to have a fake name, they don't need to know how to sell how to figure out what the client likes in order to sell more. Its much easier!
Anyway, she got very upset. She said she was a former cop , she was writing a book, which she said she wasn't even supposed to tell me about, she said she had been violated before, that she hated men, that she wanted to get back at them by writing this expose. I tried to tell her that if she hated men that business was going chew her up and spit her out. I begged ...please try to find another way. She said if I didn't teach her she was going to write a bad review on citysearch. I said, fine, I'm not concerned about that. I want you to understand what you could be getting your self into. We continued to talk for over an hour. She said she didn't want to study with us because I had discouraged her. I said I was sorry, but it was what I believed and if she was really serious that she should contact us and at least we could give her some pointers so that she could get in and out with the least damage possible. And that even if she didn't choose to take classes that if she decided to dance and ever needed a friendly ear that I would be there for her.
So today I see this
http://austin.citysearch.com/review/45829650/3767301

Wow.
So I wrote this
http://austin.citysearch.com/review/45829650/4088253
I was so angry at first ...then just crushed. I am trying so hard to do something good. To take a bad experience and do something good with it. Something positive.

I guess you can't please them all. I once had a student write this.


I loved EVERYTHING about the class. I originally signed up for the class as an alternative to working out in the gym, and of course, learn how to move. I loved the idea that the classes would be taught by a former exotic dancer. Hey, learn from a true professional instead of wannabes. Having not worked out in 6 years, I was apprehensive about taking the Desire 1A workshop (I was afraid it would be one of those cold, robotic gym environments). I was proven wrong in so many ways. I was given more than I bargained for, which was fabulous. I had an instructor that worked out/danced with the rest of the students (rather than stand on the side and dictate what to do), the classes were set in a super-relaxed atmosphere, no judgments, individual attention was given to each one us, easy-going pace, and sooooo amazingly fun. I am forever grateful for the fact that the workshop gave me so much more than I asked for. I was able to look in the mirror and not judge myself on how fat I was, how short my legs looked, how my gut was hanging out, etc. I was able to look at myself and feel more feminine, sexy, empowered, and more comfortable with my body. I can never fully describe what this workshop has given me or done for me. I loved every minute. I loved every part. I loved everything. I found my niche workout and place for me and am definitely sticking with StripXpertease. My first stop was Desire 1A workshop. My next stops are Desire 1B and Stripper Strength. -Carrie L. Desire I Series NYC

That's why I do it...I hope that that lady didn't end up going to the club. I have a feeling she didn't , because if she did, she would have understood what I was saying.
Yeah, no, I'm sure of it. So there ya go. Maybe my words worked after all.

NEWSLETTER: October 08

October 2008
Hello ladies,I recently read an article that mentioned a link to increasing mental health issues due to the economic stresses of our ever down-sliding economy. My first reaction was, "No s#*t." Of course we are all a little more stressed. And although we are not all going to lose our marbles, this uneasiness is definitely touching everyone. So what do we do? Well, first, we all breathe. One collective in through the nose, out through the mouth. Next we remind ourselves that things could be worse. And then we start taking care of our bodies and minds. It is a fact that stress and poor emotional health can weaken our body's immune system.I too am feeling these stresses and have been trying like crazy to get myself back to yoga. Now is the time to really take care of ourselves. Our bodies are our temples and ladies, if we are unhealthy and sick then we surely can't take care of our families and our loved ones. Sick does not equal sexy! So now more than ever is the time to do something for yourself. Our punch card classes are priced at $20 per drop in class, and until the end of October your first Sexy Steps or Kama Sutra Kardio class is free. In these classes you'll hear great music (stress-buster), meet new gal-pals (stress-buster), definitely have a few laughs (stress-buster), move your body (yep, stress-buster!) and get to wear those crazy stripper shoes (See the article below for reasons to buy.) You can't beat that! Stress free AND easy on the budget. So whether it is with us, your local gym, or simply foot to pavement, get out there and get moving. Take care of yourself and don't forget to just breathe. :)
See ya in class,xoxox-Kimberlykimberly@stripxpertease.com

Stripper Heels Can Go With ANY Costume.
Seriously, they can. Wicked witch, stripper heels. Little Bo Peep, stripper heels. French maid, stripper heels. Pirate, stripper boots. Nurse, red stripper heels...you get the picture. So this is the perfect time to go for it. You now have a REAL reason to make that risque purchase. So get your stripper heels and then build your costume around it.Halloween is the one time of the year that everyone can access their inner stripper, with no shame, timidness, or shyness. So I double-dog dare you to put on that sexy outfit and strut your stuff. And there is an outfit for everyone, and every body related excuse.Find showing off your legs a bit too spooky? Then try Dark Angel. Fishnets can cover up every imperfection, and knee high boots can keep you warm too. Corsets are also great at cinching in your waist after too much candy corn. Want to wear something sexy, but feel like your bootie is a bit ghoulish? Then try this sexy Mafia Mamma costume. This is a great one for breaking the sexy barrier, but not going overboard. Speaking of overboard, a pirate costume like Buccaneer Fantasy is great for going sexy and only revealing a bit of skin on your shoulders and legs. Adding tights and boyshorts will give even more coverage.If fact, there are a ton of hot costumes that let you reveal your sexy side with just a bit of skin. Check these out:Marine OfficerSpiderellaZorro (You can even hide your true identity with this one!)So there you go, plenty of ideas. Let this Halloween be your first step in becoming a little bolder, braver, and more confident. And when you feel sexy, trust me ladies, you will LOOK sexy.Just don't forget the stripper heels! And when Halloween is over, throw those heels in your bag and get your sexy butt to class!
