    Cincinnati Union Station

    Union Terminal has been one of my favorite Cincinnati places since I was a kid! I try to make it back when I'm back in town visiting the parents. I miss the ice cream parlor, though...they used to have this amazing ice cream place that still had all of this original signage/decor in it...but...

    An Open Request to the Ladies of the Lounge

    If shes looking for corsets in the NY area, I would recommend Shumit at http://underground-aristocracy.com/ . He made me a gorgeous faille underbust corset and was very reasonable considering the make! Steel boned and fabulous.

    Best beauty decision you've made?

    Dying my hair black! I always had dark brown hair, but that move to black 5 years ago made all the difference! I felt so much sassier and more powerful with black hair! That and cutting back on the sugar and bad carbs! I do allow myself enough cheats so that I can enjoy some bad things now...

    Aw, thanks, all! I love doing this stuff...so much fun...! Chanteuse- the shoes are vintage...the lacy panties are vintage, too (like vintage 60s, you can probably find things like these pretty easily)...and the corset is Agent Provacateur. It's a great one and was on super sale this January...

    I was at the Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend in Vegas last week, and went on the Pinup Photo Safari- a jaunt down Fremont St during a vintage car show! For once, I'm not wearing vintage- but I am carrying a 40s umbrella :) (all photos by Don Spiro)
