Interview with Khandie Khisses



Hello ladies I had the pleasure to interview Khandie Khisses!
This lady is a great Role model to any person reading this interview

Queen of Burlesque' - Editor of BleedingCool.com, Fixe Magazine and Brooks Theatre.
Voted into The Top 50 Burlesque Stars of the World (2009, 2010, 2011 & 2012).
Placed in Top 20 Burlesque Performers in UK 2013.


WARNING
*a few funny moments ahead that will make you spit your tea all over your computer which happend to me while doing this interview!! 
Read &Enjoy!!!






1-whats in your make up bag?

GUM! I always get a mouth drier than a desert before performing so I always have a packet hand.

Mascara -  I am naturally *ginger* eek and so have the palest of eyelashes. Thick black mascara is my weapon of choice. 

Rice powder - no shiny face for me.

Kirby grips - you gotta have those.

Lipstick - whatever colour I am wearing that day. Probably MAC and probably something garish. I do love Candy Yum Yum layered with Rebel at the moment.


2-your a performer! How long does it take to create outfits?

Its a bit of a hard one to tie down. I can create a costume in a week, piecing together existing costumes or like my most recent one, take 6 months. 


3- your heading to a music festival please pick your top 5 luxury items?

SUNCREAM! Adults have no excuse for sun burn, plus it can double up as moisturiser. Mascara. Chewing gum (stinky breathe is a NO NO). dry shampoo - no greasy locks.  Lady wipes. I dont want no dirty fanny or stinking crotch from 3 days in a mud slide festival LOL.


4-from tthe pictures you post, you must love fashion!? Please pick 5 of your favorite day or evening outfits?







The first one is me off to a meeting. I actually wore this sequin skirt to death! My shape is hourglass so I always try to highlight my waist.

The second I was off to work as a photographer for the day so I needed to be comfortable but as the shoot was outside, jacket was essential. The short sleeves help by not being too constricting. Plus who doesnt love faux fur!?

The third I was looking over a show I was curating. Hence the hipster look. This dress is my favorite dress up/down number. My cat ear hat was an impulsive  buy. I have yet to regret it.

The fourth is a £5 dress i bought at a vintage fair. its a 60s number...it needed ONE stitch so I snapped it up and I adore it. Those heels are a Tesco's sales bargain for all of £7 hahaha. BARGAIN.

The fifth is my rather naughty outfit. I work it to teach burlesque. Hotpants are perfect for teaching but not for shopping in tescos after. I love the cutesy preppy side of this but lets be fair, LEGSHOW!


5-whats your favorite fragrance? Any Viv Westwood for the day but onstage I wear Black XS.


6-whats your daily make-up routine? Moisturise like crazy. Eyebrows, eyeliner then mascara. Moisturiser is key. Never forget it.


7-pleas pick 3of your favorite performance outfits and why? 



My newest one. It took ages to come together and is worth every second of that wait. I adore it. Its feminine whilst maintaining strength. Plus I feel bad ass in it. Georgina Brown made this one. She knows her cage bras! I feel awesome in this outfit. 

My second was a costume that has spawned a life long friendship and business relationship with Vintage Lynndy Loo. This costume has changed its purpose over the years but I utterly adore how Lynn (owner/designer/demi goddess of Vintage Lynndy Loo) knows how to fit a corset to my shape. She is sensational. The costume is as perfect today as when I first took ownership of it.

My final piece is another Vintage Lynndy Loo costume but this one is especially close to my heart. It launched a whole new world for me: acting. I wear this costume in two films by Alan Moore and Mitch Jenkins: Jimmy's End and His Heavy Heart. Its a Lynn special so fits perfect but it is my first corseted bodysuit. Painful if you want to get out for the loo but worth it. I spent 16hrs a day for a week in this outfit. I love it. Special pride in my costume room.

Baby Items I Don't Buy | minimalist lifestyle

Living in a small space we found you don't need half of the things all the parent magazines tell you. You have to work with what you've got and we've saved space and  money by doing it this way.  A baby monitor We have never owned one because we are one door away from the bedroom to the front room we check on our children regularly, i don't see the point in having one in a small flat. If you're in a big house then I completely understand and I would do the same too If we lived in a bigger place.  A changing table We have always used a changing mat followed by a basket full of nappies, creams, wipes, cloths, etc and stored it away for easy access. Changing tables are a large item to have in a small home and as much as I would like one, a baby changing mat does the same thing.  Formula heating machine I've breastfed and fed my children formula and one thing we don't need is a chunky machine to get the formula mixed and hot. We can quiet easily stor...
