so tomorrow I'm driving up to the Armoury in San Francisco. Seems the Kink.com wardrobe dept wants to check out what I am selling. It'll be nice to get rid of my things en masse like that because it'll save a bunch of time but it kind of sucks too. I like knowing that my items are going to nice individual homes & owners. not that the people at kink aren't nice, but well, i don't know. it just seems...
Spotted in the December ‘09 issue of Wmagazine (that one featuring Demi Moore’s missing hip bones), a blurb about Kenneth Cole’s latest socially conscious good deed product: limited-edition black rubber motorcycle boots. All net proceeds will go to amfAR, the Foundation for AIDS Research. (World AIDS Day is December 1.) At $98, they’re well-priced– plus [...]
Black Friday, for those of you not living in the US, is normally the craziest shopping day of the year, the day after Thanksgiving.

Latex bargain hunters won’t have [...]
The Mister International Rubber 2010 weekend in Chicago took place on November 6-8, 2009. The 2010 event was bigger and better than ever. The contest had a change of ownership and location this year, and it was obvious from the start that this was going to allow the weekend event to grow in the future [...]

Dita Von Teese has been ramping up her career with a European burlesque tour, a line of retro lingerie and a new photography flipbook entitled “Dita: Striptease.” But the burlesque performer and fetish model says that she may not be returning to Los Angeles any time soon, thanks to paparazzi and a more receptive audience [...]
Howdy folks! John Leavitt here, back for a super-powerful session of Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School. In our 4th Art Star show, the stunning Darenzia and Nicholas acted out scenes from Craig Yoe’s ‘Secret Indenity“, a new book all about the underground fetish drawings of Superman Co-Creator Joe Shuster. It’s like we brought a whole [...]
Readers of this blog and other fetish blogs will surely remember the untimely death of Los Angeles domina and performer Veronica Hoffman earlier this year.

Meet Miss Kitsch and Dan. A regular kinky couple there out of pure boredom and sheer fun and decided to post one of their videos on YouTube.

Violet Blue has been counting the fetishes in Lady Gaga’s new video: “If you haven’t seen it yet, I highly recommend Lady Gaga’s hyper-fetishized new video for her song “Bad Romance.” The video is way more entertaining than the song itself (which is catchy, by the way), and it’s packed with sex, high-gloss fetish couture, [...]

“In 1997, Mr. International Rubber, a.k.a. Rubber Blowout Weekend, began under the ownership of Cell Block. Much like its counterpart, International Mr. Leather, the weekend includes a competition, vendor market and after-hours events. But according to Schendel (or “Rubberwilli”), who won the pageant in ’03, while the event may have boosted drink sales, it [...]
