Look what arrived in the mail today …

Finally someone with a different take on fine linens. I love my bed. I spend half my bloody lifetime in it. Comfort is imperative.

Every boudoir should have a little naughty. Vice Merchants have just the thing for those that want some downright dirty sheets. The wonderful company,Vice Merchants,  is headed by Brooklyn based artist, Miriam Carothers.

Her illustration work is fantastical and will  greet you with the pleasures of large breasts, arched backs, round bottoms, full lips, a bit of mischief, a touch of humor, and a heavy dose of sex. The beautiful curves and sweeping lines of her illustrations meld into wonderful and wacky images of the female form at “play”. Futuristic femme fatales, topless steamy bohemian girls, bare bottomed motorcycle chicks riding herd, and nudie cutie pin-ups all arrive on paper with a palpable magnetism that pulls the viewer’s eye to page.

Vice Merchants have fused the subversive underbelly of fine art and the world of interior design to create their own steamy rendition of home décor that begins with Poppy Playground, an exclusive collection of stylishly-risqué luxe bedding. And oh my, what a gorgeous set and even better? 400 thread count Egyptian cotton …mmmmmmm….

With Carothers’s art as the inspiration, this design house takes a postmodern approach to sexual taboos and appropriates the forbidden as a something to be celebrated in the objects and accessories of everyday life. Carothers illustrates from posed live models and imbues each sketch with her own artistry creating images and scenes that work as a mural but also have enough power to stand-alone and hold the viewer’s attention.  These drawings are passed on to the design team that will meticulously translate and trick out the illustrations into sinfully sensual prints and patterns for bedding, wall paper, ottomans, curtains, coat linings and much more.

They have Poppy Pink and Poppy Taupe (as above). These are also limited editions which tickles my insides as I love having something rare and unique, especially in the bedroom … jus’ sayin! There are a myriad of ways an illustrator can create and when I saw these I was impressed. Beautiful, sensual fun bedroom decor

Decadance ….

Vice Merchants collections are for the hot blooded, progressive provocateurs’ hidden in all of us, adding a hint of mischief and a dollop of titillation to the doldrums of everyday décor.

She wraps those hands around that pole,
She licks those lips and off we go,
She takes it off nice and slow,
‘Cause that’s PORNSTAR DANCIN’!

She don’t play nice, she makes me beg,
She drops that dress around her legs,
And I’m sittin’ right by the stage for this,
PORNSTAR DANCIN’!

‘goes off to find a pole’ .. that damn mohawk made me horny ‘grins’

… in between classes at uni?

Why impy goes and checks out the yearly ‘Boobs on Bikes’ parade hehe. Every year we have a three day event happening ‘The Erotica Lifestyles Expo’. Boobs on Bikes is part of the promotional gimmick for this event which is on this coming weekend. Boobs on Bikes is a mostly annual parade of semi-nude pornstars riding on motorcycles through large New Zealand cities (in the past, Christchurch, Palmerston North, and most prominently Auckland). It is organized by the somewhat locally famous pornographer Steve Crow, to advertise his activities and the Erotica Expo, an adults-only pornography trade exhibition. It also has stalls ranging from sex toys to clothes to massages, magazines, tattoo & piercing stalls and BDSM stalls.

I took photos of the parade and then ran back to catch a lecture lol. It’s been an 11 hour day away from home today so I am pooped. Enjoy …

Now does anyone recognise this person sat upon a beasty tank?
