Many things have happened since my last proper update, from dinner with the Queen (well, a Queen lookalike) including a drive in a pink limo, to attending the Bizarre Ball (wishing that I hadn't done), to dancing around with Balkan Beat Box.
But first, in regards to my last post, heres a photo of myself and Aurora at Lolita in Wonderland II, taken by Pat Lyttle.

An acquaintance of mine has recently published a book with lovely glossy photos of modern "club kids", which is available here. There are some rather bizarre looking chaps on the back cover....
....we also attended the book's launch party!

On Saturday evening we dragged ourselves into Shoreditch to see one of our favourite bands, Balkan Beat Box. Neither of us were feeling at our best, however BBB's music is just so good we had to dance. I saw them for the first time last year, and can say they are one of the best live acts I have seen - I recommend checking out their music (here is a link to one song to get a taste)!
We were right at the front for the whole way through and, as usual, in the encore, they pull people up onto stage to dance. However, as usual, there are extremely excited women in the audience that tend to use me as a ledge to push themselves up with! People started pouring onto the stage, pushing me out of the way, until the singer, Tomer Yosef, grabbed my hand and pulled me and then Mark up. There were far too many people on the stage, so we were shoved to the back, but it was still an experience! After the gig, when we were dancing to the DJ, Tomer came up to us and told us we looked different, and that he remembered us from last year - it made my weekend!

As if that wasn't enough, I'm working with the amazing Tea, shooting images for her company's (Sacré Coeur Jewellery and Adornments) website, and with Amelia Arsenic, for her new tshirt line!
