“I’m bagging, bagging you…” Part I. Stacey Rookhuizen

Stacey Rookhuizen (a Dutch style icon) appeared on The Best Dressed Awards ceremony in a plastic bag as a “water- and humourproof” dress.

That does not surprise me, because using trashbags as clothes is quite obvious (especially for those who’s got latex allergy or does not want to pay for expensive latex dresses). What does surprise me is her bare legs. No stockings or pantyhose! Oh, c’mon! So unstylish, annoying and flat-looking…

Office, pantyhose, high heels. Part I. Obsession

I easily fall in love.

No, not a good beginning. Let’s try again.

As an extravert (in the Jungian sense), I tend to spend much more energy, than my introversive family and friends (who use mine). To get energy back I can sleep, eat, be alone, sport or … spend some time with my positively emotional “activator” – Ethical Sensory Extrovert (aka ESFJ, aka Enthusiast, aka “Victor Hugo”). (Preferably female 😉

No, not good enough again. Who cares about psychology. Another attempt.

She’s a project coordinator from another country. After a couple of phone conference calls, business e-mails and chats I searched for her name on the Internet and discovered her accounts on LinkedIn, Facebook, Picasa, Google+ and a pair of other social nets. Like me she’s registered everywhere. On the photos she looked similar to what she sounded on the calls. Young, long haired, coquettish, giggling, “fashionistish” and easily distractable from work. Nothing special, but … catchy.

Maryna Linchuk in shiny blue pantyhose(?)

In Russian Vogue (June 2008) Maryna Linchuk (Марина Линчук) appeared in beautiful blue almost latex like shiny pantyhose but with no information about the model/brand. There is another photo where she’s wearing a blue Bal Togs lycra/nylon catsuit (custom made).

I wonder if “the pantyhose” are actually “the catsuit”. The colour and shine are a bit different (colour balance?) and I would expect more wrinkles on tights when legs are bent (Photoshop?).

Men in pantyhose, family in pantyhose or Just wear it!

The photo is taken from tights4men forum. The author (Пан Юрий) asks:”Guess, where’s me and where’s my wife?”. But, this is not the question or answer (which is quite obvious, isn’t it?) what interests me.

Twenty years ago I could not even imagine that I will wear pantyhose openly, wear them everyday, much more often than my wife and my daughter and people around together, that I will get pantyhose as presents, that I will swim in pantyhose in public swimming pools, that I will forget that I wear pantyhose, because I got used to them, etc.

One interesting moment. A couple of years ago me and my mother-in-law were sitting in a kitchen both wearing almost the same clothes: t-shirts, jeans shorts and pantyhose.

The bottom line is: Life is too short. Do not wait for the so called “public acceptance”, just wear it!

Stumbled upon on eBay. Purple latex swimsuit

Updated on Aug 20, 2011 @ 04:05:The suit is on sale again!

Posted on Jul 28, 2011 @ 4:42:
What: Latex swimsuit made by Rubberlicious. 0.05 deep purple and transparent latex.

Where: the item (it’s not currently listed, but since there were no bids made, it may reappear again), the seller

Why: Several interesting moments here.

Design. It’s constructed just like a usual one-piece swimsuit. Nothing fancy, no extremely high leg cut-outs, no closed back, no zips, tank top. But thanks to two colours the wearer will look much slimmer. The dark (purple in this case) defines the silhouette, while the transparent latex hides what should not be visible. Very clever!

Gothic festival “Summer Darkness 2009 ” in Utrecht – Part III. Fashion show. “Attitude Holland”

See Part I and Part II.

Publishing the third part before I forget about it for two more years 😉

These 22 photos are from the Gothic/fetish/lolita fashion show by Attitude-Holland. What I specifically like is the wetlook lycra. It also reminds me the “other” matte side of latex sheeting. This is the material I would like to have leotards, swimsuits and zentai suits made from!

Anybody can win a place in the fashion show in the following categories: fetish, gothic, lolita, burlesque/pin-up, emo or whatever the organizer/manufacturer invents. All models are from “the real public”. You can check on the website who won this year.

Gothic festival “Summer Darkness 2009” in Utrecht – Part II

See Part I

Two moments.

First. It took me two years to return to this event and finally sort and process the photos I made there. (There will be one more part). And today (what a coincidence!) I’ve been to the Summer Darkness festival again.

Second. It too me five years to figure out why my vivid photos look so flat and lifeless on the website. And the reason is … oh…. this is soooo embarrassing… wrong colour space!

Now I have to either reprocess all the published photos again, or leave them as they are. I will probably redo only the posts I was going to rewrite/reformat anyway. In this set there are pictures in both sRGB and AdobeRGB spaces.

Black and white sensual stories. Andy Julia photography

Why can’t I just repost a photo or a drawing I stumbled upon on tumblr, facebook, *chan or various forums and shut up? Why am I so curious that I begin to search the source, who the author is, what else he/she does? Why do I spent my time and energy to compose these messages which nobody reads, cares of or gives me money for? Yeah, demotivated again…

OK, some useless details you do not want to know anyway. The author is Andy Julia, a freelance photographer from Paris. Books, exhibitions, on-line and off-line galleries… All that stuff you can find on his website Andy Julia Photography, isn’t it what it was created for?

And the reason why I bothered with typing is that these photos “work“. I would like to be in these clothes, these situations, “to touch and feel”. These moody photos tell stories and … motivate my imagination

What are you wearing? Demotivators of the day

Lady Arrakis' fetish and bondage artSimplicity does not always work like it should. There is nothing simpler than two naked bodies making sex with each other. But we want to spice things up, we need details, attributes, special materials, certain colours, icings to spawn, keep or increase the excitement.

Not bare skin, but shiny latex or nylon. Not just a baggage strap with a ratchet, but neat rows of glossy rope. Not masturbation with your lead hand, but desperate convulsive jerks of self-trussed, self-bound, self-plugged and self-gagged own body. Not an old egg-shaped vibrator, but a multichannel oscilloscope-like device, wires, USB cables, connectors, gel-pads, tri-phase electrostimulation and specially crafted musical files with hands free orgasm symphonies.

No, we are not looking for easy ways… And all that hassle is just for an internal and external erection…
