And how do you Burlesque? - Saturday's Feature

The movie Burlesque was great. I loved the dancing, there was a decent storyline but it was lacking strong, heart throbbing tragedies. It had the potential of being a stronger movie, but who cares - we were there to watch the dancing and the leg kicking.

The movie reminded me of two favorite Shops and what they had to offer.

What movie you say? Well here is a clip of one of the dances. Christina Aguilara is the Main Character in this movie.




With that said, I'm sure you know exactly the kind of things I'm about to show you!



I have never seen Greeting cards quite like this before, and they are certainly hard to forget. All of the cards are made of new and recycled materials all put together to make sassy dresses, masks and handbags.

Here are some to catch your breath!!

Diamond Princess



Breakfast at Tiffany's



Are they not gorgeous? These are great greeting cards for the women who appreciates and loves vintage, or perhaps someone who just watched the movie Burlesque!

Check out her site for more great greeting cards. This is just a small sample that does NOT do the Shop justice!

Byslvar's Boutique Greeting Card Shop


The next Shop is for those with daring and sass. Nothing is more like the movie Burlesque than Burlesque costumes!!




Crash a Bachelor Party with your girls all dressed up in Burlesque outfits with the Bride taking the lead? That's the FIRST idea that came to my mind when drooling through Olgaitaly's Shop. Then of course there are Costume Parties, Halloween, Cosplay, and a whole bunch of other things. Perhaps a Burlesque Theme Wedding?


Black Iris



There isn't just the costume themselves, but there are also handmade accessories too! Check out this great, rich red plume headband.




Circus Corset



Alice in Wonderland


Are you drooling yet? I know I am! Check out these shops, they are amazing!
