So, a night and some rest in Reno and we're finally heading out to the playa! Can't wait - I'm so excited! I did forget my ticket in LA though which sucks but I'll just have to get another one at the gate, no turning back now! No reception out there so see you next week...

We're leaving in 2 hours ago (yes, I know I'm late) and I'm still trying to figure out why I need 8 pairs of boots at Burning Man while realizing that I need at least 8, maybe 9!
Well, this is what it looks like when I get ready for Burning Man....
I did cook burgers in the middle of the night - WITH MY BM HEADLAMP ON! I glues on Swarovski crystals until 6am and I made sure my gas mask worked!
I really do get to see some outrageous shit and I sometimes wish I could write about it all but I would rather be alive actually so I won't. But this is a long time ago so should be safe if I just wrap it nicely. I came to think about this incident while packing for Burning Man since a few of my outfits are with wigs.
I once had a very well known person (not your normal celebrity, someone very influential in society) dance to Britney Spears "Gimme more" like his life was on the line thinking that was what got me going (he thought so cause I told him I guess). And that's not all, he was wearing a blue wig doing it!!! Everyone thought he was fucking nuts and if it hadn't been for the fact that we were patted down for cameras before we entered the party I for sure would have shared the moment with you.
Well, I did have a shot with him afterwards but that's all he got. He should have known better - I prefer Xtina.
This is actually from a night out in Sweden a couple of weeks ago but I realized when looking through the photos how incredibly blessed I am with my friends. When I'm home in Sweden it's always near impossible to give everyone enough time so the fact that people work around my schedule is both awesome and I guess necessary.
My favorite couple in the world, Annelie and Alex (remember their fabulous wedding in Cannes last year) were in from Geneva and invited me over for dinner and a night out. And guess what - they organized so we could have exactly what I craved - unpeeled prawns, lots of sauces and an out of this world watermelon salad Alex made. Thank you so much guys, I love you!
As if this wasn't enough, my cousin Malin flew down from Stockholm so we could hang out - that's what I call making an effort, I never would have made it up there. And guess what, there is more. Lina traveled to come as well (she was in the country from London anyway but far from the party). Oh, and she gave me a massage when she found out I had a headache, that's true love!
I had a night surrounded by loving, amazing and of course, perfectly crazy friends and I just can't tell you how much fun I had.
A few weeks ago there was this out of this world event/party/experience/I'll never be able to explain how amazing, fun, special and beautiful it was/ thing called Burning Lamb that I went to and it all started with a cowboy party at a local bar.
What is it with cowboy hats that makes everyone so hot?! I love them. And for some reason it seems like wearing a cowboy hat comes with the immediate right to misbehave, do extra shots and wear shorter skirts than normally, so now I love them even more.
I was too much of a pussy to get on the bull (seriously, anyone who's rode a bull barelegged or in a skirt knows to never do that again, the bruises on the insides of your thighs just attracts the wrong kind of guys for the following two weeks or so...)
Enjoy the day, I'm getting back to making costumes for Burning Man, only a few more days and I'll be on my way!

That's one hot combination. Sexxy.
One hotter than the other, we're lucky girls.
Bonus with gorgeous Nadia as pocahontas!
Not to be eaten. We only eat lamb.
That's the way to ride a bull Benna! Always fabulous.
I know it's just a back but Tammy's back is hotter than most.
Jill and Gage doing the "hot/cutetogether/sexy thing again.
A Sinner needs constant stimulation not to get bored and I have the most fabulous people around me who have gotten the message loud and clear. What was supposed to be a morning coffee and possibly a power walk ended up being a beautiful day not only on one boat but on two with champagne, baby seal watching and an ass massage. The evening wasn't too shabby either with a sushi dinner at Katana's where one of way too many dishes was Kobe beef with 24 carat gold (anyone knows calorie content for that, sounds rich...) and more champagne of course.
I really can't say that I like the word Cigarette but the boat was fucking hot (the owner happens to have facial hair so no worries, I behaved all day!) and yes it was fas,t but my favorite part of the day was still at the gas station, I can't tell you why but it's something charming, brown eyed and handsome...

Girls in the back.

Comment by Joy Wednesday August 25th 2010 at 09:43AM How much did the Sushi cost?!
Reply by Stiletto Sinner: Hmmm, no idea love. But he was still smiling when we left the restaurant so couldn't have been that bad, or I was just really good company. xx
Can you call them that? Superkids? Sounds like someone who would squeeze into their mommy's catsuit, wear a cape and go around the block fighting crimes (as in getting cats out of the sandboxes and making sure everyone recycle their plastic bottles) but no, not this one!
Me and Sonia were at an incredible party at Shelter Island yesterday and met this amazing young boy who had six adults at a dinner table blown away by his knowledge, business plans and behavior. I saw how his mother couldn't keep up with her brainchild, which at first was somewhat disturbing until I realized that it was impossible to keep up with him for all of us. It did not matter what he said, there was an instant "is he for fucking real" reaction immediately.
His name is Ryan and I think he's twelve years old, getting his first movie financed, ready to take on the world. And you know what, not an ounce of attitude. Another experience of me realizing how I should just get over myself cause there are lots and lots of people out there way more amazing than I could ever have imagined.
And since I'm so pointless (love it) I'm just gonna be stupid tonight and drink shitloads of champagne and tequila and dance until my 6am flight back to Los Angeles.
Just a random photo cause i look awful in real life right now!!!
Yesterday was one hell of a roller coaster day. Happy, sad, excited, presents, busy, yoga, tears, failure, sun, love, disappointment and much more.
I just couldn't get myself to pack for New York and 2 hours before my flight was about to depart I was still not even started. Well, 2 and a half (thank u Delta for the delay!) hours later there was a very flustered Stiletto Sinner putting her eyemask and neckpillow on in perfect preparation for a red eye flight!
But seriously, I think the staff at LAX were fed happy brownies or something cause every single one from curbside service to security were singing, playing games and generally making me and all the kids happy. No more funkiness and I'm ready for New York!!!
In two weeks I'll be biking around in the dust, perfectly ok with only having a quick shower every day, using portapotties and having no cell phone reception while wearing nothing but crazy costumes all day long. So right now, most of my waking hours are spent creating these costumes and my house totally looks like God knows what with glitter, feathers, skins, sequins, hats, utility belts, rhinestones, fur, glow in the dark toy shipments, chains, beads, boots, googles, wigs..... yeah, all of it. It's so bad I can't see my bed anymore (great excuse to go spend the night somewhere else, right?)
I'm just putting up a little teaser pic so you can enjoy the best outfits later. xxx

I might have thought I'd love to have the President of the United States for a visit. Well, that was wrong. It was not fun trying to get from one side of LA to the other today and I quickly came to the conclusion that the president traveling around is mostly annoying and definitely doesn't make this country run any smoother.
I therefore think he should do more holidays in Hawaii, adopt another dog in Washington DC, support the troops in Afghanistan, hang out with his family in the Hamptons and maybe go check oil spills in the south and Sarah Palin's sorry ass in the north, all as long as he stays away from creating major traffic disruptions when I'm about to celebrate a successful costume fitting with a bottle of champagne!
