Hi everyone!
two very nice news already:
Someone spotted me in a tv commercial for Jolie magazine on RTL. I have not seen it myself yet, but it seems they display my double page! I keep switching through programms to find commercial breaks - no luck so far :-D But once I have tracked it down I will make sure to share it.
I LOVE the Blog "Bobbins and Bombshells" and now Iam a part of it! Check Karens Blog now. You will enjoy her posts and the beautifull editorials she collects worlwide and shares with us so you better suscribe to her blog or you will miss out on great things!: http://bobbinsandbombshells.blogspot.com/2010/04/retro-looks-in-modern-world-jolie.html
Things are wonderfull & Iam loving it! And this is just Day 3 after the release!
Hugs,
Sari

Wer, was, warum?
first of all apologies to my English speaking fans, friends and blog-readers, this post is in German. Due to my release in the German fashion magazine "Jolie" I do a special post for those that might hit my blog and didn´t know me yet ;-)
Lieber Leser, wahrscheinlich sogar eher: Liebe Leserin,
bestimmt bist du in meinen Blog gestolpert, weil du mich in der Jolie gesehen hast. Da du daraufhin beschlossen hast, meine Homepage zu besuchen, gehe ich davon aus, dass du etwas über mich erfahren möchtest (wenn nicht, hoffe ich, dass dir die Bilder trotzdem gefallen haben ;-).
Wer bin ich? Was bin ich? Und warum bin ich? Wie du selber schon gemerkt hast, bin ich nicht das typische Fotomodell, dass dir sonst so über den Weg läuft. Aber das macht nichts. Wäre ich eine langbeinige, trendige Gazelle, wäre ich vermutlich garnicht in der aktuellen Jolie Ausgabe gelandet, weil ich nicht zum Thema gepasst hätte. ;-)

Ich bin eine bekennende Ebay-süchtige, Second-Hand-Besessene, Acessoire-Irre, Hüte Sammlerin und ein Bastel-Freak, der vor gut 6 Jahren entdeckte, das Pin up in Deutschland tot ist und Wiederbelebungsmassnahmen ergriffen hat. Mit rotem Lippenstift, High Heels und einer Hassliebe gegenüber meinem Lockenstab (wenn ihr jemals so ein Ding mit Bürstenaufsatz benutzt habt, versteht ihr was ich meine.) zog ich in die Welt hinaus. Viele haben nicht verstanden, was ich da eigentlich tue, aber mit viel Energie und Liebe zum Detail habe ich es schliesslich geschafft und hoffentlich mein Quentchen zum Retro Revival beigetragen. :-) Mehr Einzelheiten wie das alles begann findet ihr hier: http://www.retro-model.de/history.htmlEs gibt immer ein paar Standard-Fragen, die die Menschen beschäftigen, die zum ersten Mal über mich stolpern. Ich fasse die häufigsten mal zusammen:
Lebst du davon Pin up zu sein?Ich betreibe das ganze eher Semi-Professionell. Das bedeutet, dass ich zwar von Zeit zu Zeit bezahlte Aufträge habe, meine Brötchen aber hauptsächlich anders verdiene. Von daher erübrigen sich auch die Fragen ob ich in einem tollen großen Haus lebe (es ist eher eine winzige Wohnung mit viel zu vielen Sachen), einen Chauffeur habe (nur die Straßenbahn) und wer mich stylt (bei etwa 90 % der Shootings mache ich das selber - in meiner Freizeit zu 100 % ;-). Ich bin mir noch nichtmal sicher, ob ich diesen Zustand großartig ändern würde, wenn ich davon fürstlich leben könnte. (Ok, eine größere Wohnung wäre dann schon drin;-) Die meisten Bilder, die ihr hier sehen könnt, sind aus purer Liebe zu schönen Fotos entstanden.
Woher bekommst du deine Klamotten?
Es ist ein bunter Mischmasch von gezielter Ebay-Suche, Selbstgenähtem, Wühlerei in Second Hand Shops, Mainstream-Modeketten und Szene Designern (z.b. Lucky Diva, Able Grable etc. etc.). Meine Dessous beziehe ich zum Großteil von Ars Vivendi, Secrets in Lace, Kiss me Deadly und What Katie did.
Wie stylst du dir die Haare?Nach jahrelanger Übung hat mir das Buch "Vintage Hairstyling" sehr geholfen meinen persönlichen Stil noch mehr zu perfektionieren. Ihr könnt es u. a. bei www.pinup-parade.com kaufen. Ansonsten gibt es noch einige tolle Youtube Tutorials. Ich habe gehört, dass Dita von Teese auch ein Styling Buch herausbringen soll und habe es ganz oben auf meiner Wunschliste.
Aktuell biete ich keine Kurse an, allerdings habe ich für 21:CP einen Bericht darüber geschrieben, wie man am besten seine ersten Schritte in Richtung Pin up machen kann. Diesen Bericht findet ihr auf www.retro-model.de in meinen Referenzen.
Was machst du in deiner Freizeit?
Ich "schmeisse" den ganzen Laden selber. Sprich: Ich bin mein Webmaster, Manager, Publizist, Stylist und von Zeit zu Zeit auch mein eigener Designer (ich kann einigermassen nähen und bastele mir meine Acessoires auch gerne selber wenn ich eine coole Idee für ein Shooting habe). Von daher besteht meine Freizeit darin, dass ich von Zeit zu Zeit meine Homepage update, meine Shootings organisiere und vorbereite, Kontakte knüpfe und mit meiner Heißklebepistole und meinen Basteluntensilien das Chaos verbreite bis ich anfange Glitzerstaub zu husten (das ist keine Metapher). Wenn das alles aber mal eine Weile wegfällt reise ich gerne, lese sehr viel, hüpfe wild auf meinem Trampolin herum und Hula Hoope. :-)
Ich bin ein Designer/Fotograf/Unternehmen/Journalist/whatever und möchte dich buchen/mit dir zusammenarbeiten/einfach mal "hallo" sagen/über dich berichten. Wie mache ich das?
Schick einfach eine Email an: gurusari1(a)aol.com (ich weiß, eine kuriose Email-Adresse, aber die hab ich schon seit 1996). Ich antworte so schnell wie möglich.
Ich hoffe, ich habe alle Klarheiten beseitigt. Wenn ihr euch weiterhin für meinen Alltag als Pin up, entsprechende Kleidung und das ganze drumherum interessiert, solltet ihr öfters mal hier vorbeischauen oder den Blog abonnieren. But it´ll be in English , as my fanbase is international. ;-)

Jolie magazine the scans
Hi everyone,
I slept TERRIBLE last night. I had nightmares in which I didn´t find the new no. of Jolie magazine and when I did I did not like the pics and they spelt my website-adress wrong. BUT. It was only a dream.
I woke up at 7:30 and tried to keep calm as it would have been loony to run around manically when they probably haven´t put the new magazines to their newsstand, yet. By 8:15 I couldn´t stand it anymore, climbed over my sleeping boyfriend and was lucky that the magazine available already. Despite my nightmare THE PICTURES ARE BEYOUND MY DREAMS!!! They are fab! I LOVE THEM! And my website-adress is spelt right as well ;-)
On top of it I was supposed to be on 8 pages only, but it seems all outfit-photos turned out fab and I happen to be on 11 pages instead! Here are the scans. But, do not forget to buy the magazine if you can, cause nothing beats physical copies (and my scanner sucks, hence the strange colour difference on my double-page.) Kudos to Miroe, the photographer, Susann, the fab hair and make up artist, Katja who was in charge of the production and last but not least Sergio, who contacted me and Nina who REALLY kept me in mind after she couldn´t add me to a short article she did on pin up last year. LOVE YOU ALL!
I´m so exited I almost put apple juice into my coffee instead of almond syrup :-D

Jolie... delayed to this weekend
Hi everyone,in case you belong to those desperately browsing the newsstands for Jolie (I´m not kidding when I tell you that my Mom has been browsing at least 7 shops and counting, my boyfriend browsed every kiosk he passed by, my fathers side of the family bought the old one and got frustrated cause they couldn´t find me and I even got messages by people not related to me in any way that are disappointed cause they couldn´t find it) I can tell you... It is delayed to THIS SATURDAY the 10th of April due to eastern-holidays. FOR SURE! Like 100%!!! I mailed them to ask ;-)
At least we all have a training in how to go to a newsstand & browse it in the quickest possible way now :-D Keep calm, go buy it this Saturday AND keep your eyes open for the scans in my blog! (Make it the best sold Jolie issue ever - it is just 1,80 € for the pocket sized or 2,20 € for the big sized one - and tell them how much you love it! That could increase my chances to get booked again;-)
Enjoy!

7 days... Jamari´s Pin up Series, Jolie magazine... how did that happen???
Hi everyone,
a busy week has passed by and I can´t believe it!
my FB & Twitter followers might remember that I was not that pleased on how the year started shooting-wise.... Nothing happened all January and I was getting so so bored. Even desperate. And I was actively searching for interesting shootings as I allways do when no one approaches me. I thought I may never break the spell! Honestly I have no idea how I did, but here is a little roundup of my latest activities.
Last week on Wednesday Jamari Lior posted that she does a pin up series and is looking for a model with red hair and bright coloured clothes. I contacted her and we decided to shoot. The next day. And so we did ;-) The pictures I have seen so far look devine and there will be and extra post with those AND a making off video soon!!! For the German readers: Jamari also did a little blog on how the process of her pin up series was going on: http://www.j-maya.de/blog/?p=693
It was Monday when I got a mail with a request to shoot for "Jolie" Magazine. For the non-Germans (or non-girls): Jolie is one of Germanys biggest ladies magazines released on a monthly basis and a website to go with it. This means: Tons of people read and buy it - myself included. Now you may wonder how they got the idea to look for me. Let´s go 9 months back in time. Back than one of the ladies working for them researched on pin up and contacted me with some questions in order to write about it in their magazine. Unfortunetly it was shortened and hence I wasn´t included, however she promised she´d keep me in mind if they ever get back to the topic again. Obviously she kept her promise so I took a flight to Munich this Wednesday, had a shooting this Thursday (technically today) and was flying back tonight. It´ll be a fashion spread on modern and retro inspired fashion for curvy ladies and it will be released at the 3rd of April. Both the team and me filmed a bit during it, so at the same time it is released there will be a making off on my youtube channel and possibly on their website, too. The photographer of this shoot was Miroe: www.miroe.com
You think this is enough adventure for now? This weekend I will be doing 1-2 more shoots (one depends on the weather). But I will tell about those later... ;-)
