Miss Pin Up Australia Queensland Heats Video now up!

Well... I thought it might come back to haunt me but it's not too bad! Here is the video from Tattooink.tv who filmed the whole Miss Pin Up Australia Queensland event.


You can see Marilyn McSweetie at 2:30, 4:07 and 7:50 minutes in the recording. It was a lot of fun! Quite happy to see my pink dress in action... didn't get a photo of that one yet!

Market Displays

I thought I'd share a few pictures of what I had planned for my market displays. Unfortunately my most recent market I was to attend didn't go to plan and I was bitterly disappointed and had to go home. I am looking into doing 3 more markets this year.. hopefully my first of those will be successful and not a shambles!

Miss Beckiejo Jolley on the Today Show

The Today Show interviewed the lovely pin up gal Miss Beckiejo Jolley this morning. Here is a snippet of a recent news article as well...

A Melbourne mother of four who dresses like a 1950s pin-up girl everyday is preparing to compete in a National beauty pageant celebrating old-school glamour. Rebeccah Jolley, 32, says being ladylike is a way of life and wears 1950s vintage clothing both at home and when going out about town. She will line up on Friday against 20 other vintage belles in the Miss Pin-Up Australia contest. Like most pageants there will be daywear, eveningwear, swimwear and talent categories. For the talent category Rebeccah says she will perform a sketch from 'I Love Lucy'. 'I'm quaking in my girdle,' she says. Whatever the outcome, she won't be ditching her heels for flats anytime soon.

Miss Pin Up Australia 2010 - I Got In!

Well as a last minute dash I got accepted into Miss Pin Up Australia - QLD Heats on this Friday night! A big stress to get all the accessories sorted but luckily I already had my outfits planned. The competition celebrates everything 50s and I have chosen a collection of day wear, evening, swim and lingerie that reflect my take on the competition. After modelling the outfits there is also a talent section and I will be performing a 50s song. It is an exciting time and also nerve-wracking! I will keep you posted with results for Marilyn McSweetie and Peaches St Claire from the evening. My outfits that will be worn have been inspired by the gorgeous Bettie Page. Two dresses are exclusive to Bettie Page Clothing.
