Bunker Hill - Red Riding Hood & The Wolf

I have a brutally sweet tune from Bunker Hill, for you guys this Saturday!! I'm gonna walk the hoover and do some cleaning, but I need some inspiration.. What's not better than having some music to the work?

We're also closing in on Halloween, time to warm up with Red Riding Hood and The Wolf! One of my favourite fairytales..;) Do you have a favourite?

Friday Tune - Don´t Wanna Leave The Congo

Lets kick off the weekend with this fab tune from the The Valiants, with Don´t Wanna Leave The Congo!! Don't you just love the jungle rythms, mixed with a good dash of ol' rock'n'roll?

Turn up the sound and let the music fill the room.. Kick off your shoes, lean back, relax and let it sink in; yes, it is weekend! Finally, at last!!

Wish you all a lovely one;)

Monday Blues - Lavern Baker and Voodoo Voodoo

An other late shift at work, looking like the whole week will be the same.. Blah! Talk about Monday blues!! Brought my jewelry parts, the thought was that I could get artsy and crafty, while waiting to go home. But so far, I spent most of the evening surfing around on the big web.. Usually how it goes, I loose focus in this dry office air. Yes, blame it on the air.. And everything else in here.

It's so boring to sit here. Want to go home. Home to my sick husband. Make him tea and kiss him well! Make the cold go away.. Soon, be patient. I'll be home soon.

Gotta get those jewelry parts out and pass time, it will go quicker. Just a quick look on facebook first, and lets see what's going on on Etsy, for the #"¤% time today... Home, sweet home!!

Some good ol' roc'n'roll with LaVern Baker, to pep up this Monday blues!

-Hey, I think it helped;)



The Queen of Rockabilly

Here's a wonderful piece of rock'n'roll history for you guys! With the song Fujiyama Mama, from the rockabilly queen Wanda Jackson. Isn't she just the best, I love the sound of her voice! It's so raw and powerful!! Just what I need today, after a long day at work and still going on;)

Tell me about your favourite artist, or maybe a favourite tune from the old days?

  

Friday Tune - Red Hot

An other Friday tune coming your way, here from Scary Mary's. This time I'm giving you Billy Lee Riley with Red Hot, a steaming hot rock'n'roll song from the mid 50's! It seems impossible to sit still when I hear this, it makes me wanna dance around on the floor like a nutcase. Who cares if the neighbours can see me?

Friday is slowly ticking over into Saturday in my part of the world, while some of you still have some hours left. Where ever you are and what ever you are doing, I wish you a great Friday and what's left of it;)

Get That Vavavoom Waist!

How to get that hourglass shaped waist, that you see on the photos of the glam kittens back in the days? A girl might need some help sometimes.. Just like they needed back then. Especially under those sexy, but tight wiggle dresses and playsuits! Why not complete the pinup look with some gorgeous waist cinchers, which also keeps the tummy flat all evening. If you're like me, you don't like to skip a meal, just to make sure that the tummy won't poof!

Check out these lovely waist cinchers from BabygirlBoutique.. They'll make sure that the waist is cinched and the tummy is tucked all eve. Not to mention, no annoying line from your panties around the waist under that hot dress;)



Vintage Treasures

On my latest treasure hunting I stumbled over these fantastic goodies on Etsy!! All through the wonderful 50's inspired blog, Little Rascal which i have been following lately.. A swedish Rockabilly doll living in England, blogging about her life, fantastic vintage finds and her creativie hats, clothes and other accessories.. All my new treasures were found at Little Raskels Etsy shop, Rascal Kosher Design & Vintage:)

Cute 60's fauna vase

Vintage wicker bread basket for those late, american, Sunday breakfasts..

Awsome 50's handbag for my red lipstick and deadly sharp ice picker

Amazing hairdoes

Promise to work wonders!! The hope is that my hair will be just as awsome as Dita's after applying the rat and styling it..:)

Concert On Caven

Still recovering from an other awsome night with great people and fantastic Rockabilly music, at Caven Rock'n'Roll Club!! Caven is a private rock club and club house, founded by the Razorbacks in 1989. The club house is located in a bomb shelter in the mountain, close to down town Oslo. Funny how silent it is from the outside, with no visible signs of any club really. Maybe except from a smoker or two.. Anyone passing by probably think it's nothing there. I would say it's one of these places you have to know about.. Stepping inside the huge iron doors that's bolted to the mountain, life, music and laughter hits you in strong contrast to the silence outside. Fantastic people, cheap beer and Rockabilly music! What more to ask for, all ingredients for a great party!! Best of all is around three o'clock, when the ashrays hits the tables, people loosen up and the "afterparty" starts. Then it's open till there's no more beer and the last person stumbles out the heavy doorway. To quote a friend "Caven is magic".. Couldn't agree more;)

It's allways fun at Caven, Saturday was no exception;) Toni & The Tomcats rocked the socks of everyone, then more awsome music from the DJ after the band! While my husband danced all night, I concentrated on being social, snapping photos, smoking my party smokes (which I can hear on my new, sexy voice today) and drinking, then came strong out on the dance floor at the end:) haha

Me & my man
