Hookah Bookah

On Wednesday, I had my first, and pretty much my only shoot in Vegas. It was for the soon-to-be-live http://www.sultrysmokingstarlets.com/, and this was actually my fourth shoot for the site. The site is owned by a really nice & easy going guy, Larry, and since I don't smoke, I sit around & smoke hookah for him. It's pretty neat, and a lot of fun! This shoot lasted 3 hours, and I have to admit, by the end of the shoot, I wasn't feeling so good. I was lightheaded & a bit nauseous. I drove myself there, and I actually contemplated having my friend drop off Eric so that he could drive my car home, but I figured by the time they found the studio, etc. I could just get myself home, which is exactly what I did.

Whenever I made it back, the house smelled sooo delicious! Tess had made a pot roast in the crock pot, and it smelled so good! I still felt shitty, but I figured food is what I needed, so I tried to fix myself a plate. I tried & tried, but I just couldn't do it. I felt terrible & so pathetic, lol, so I cried to Eric & he fixed my dinner plate for me & brought it to where I was sitting. What a sweetie! I finished eating, and him & I went to the store to pick up some ice cream. I went to bed at a pretty decent time that night, but whenever I woke up the next day, I felt so shitty & my head was pounding. Sidney gave my some ibuprofen, and I fell back asleep until 3pm. Yikes!! It wouldn't have been so bad, except that today was the day that I wanted to go to the corset shop :-( I got up, had coffee & quickly got ready. Eric had a shoot with Caroline Pierce, and she arrived in the meantime. She is such a cutie, and a sweetheart!

Anyway...... I made my way to the corset store, http://www.badattitude.com/, in case you wanted to check it out. I found this place by accident when I was in Vegas last year, and I was so impressed that I have since made this store a destination location whenever I'm in Vegas. The owner of the store hand makes the corsets & the craftmanship is so superior to anything else I've ever owned. Sidney's friend Amber was working (yes! discount!) and she re-measured me and re-fitted me. After trying several styles on, I decided on 2 underbust corsets. One in hot pink, and one in a beige-y taupe. I originally wanted a new overbust corset, but I needed something custom made due to my tiny waist and large ribcage (ahem). I was all about instant gratification that day, so she wrote down the measurements, style & fabric swatch for me so that I could order it at a later date.

Here's a pic of Eric rigging me in my beige-y corset.

Here's the hot pink one...

After the corset store, I quickly got my nails done & made my way back home. We went out to eat, and then whenever we got back, Eric said that he wanted to shoot the custom clip that we had to do, so that's what we did. It was an hour long gag custom, and I am glad that we got it out of the way, lol. We actually did a little back story, and I was a door to door vacuum salesperson. I was trying to get Eric to purchase the Sucks-a-lot 3000, lol. I'll post it to my group whenever he puts it on his store. Too funny!
