Hi All!

Most of you have known for quite some time that I have been working on a new site design and waiting on getting my sites code upgraded. Well I am soooo excited to tell you my new site is being uploaded now and will be set live in the Very near future!

So what does this all mean to my guests and members? Well the only bits in the members area that are going to be missing for the time being are the E-Cards and the Rating/Comments of the sets. Both of which will be added back to the site in the near future for sure! As for the guest area pages, you will find things to be a bit more stream lined and hopefully it will be easier to see the very latest of what is happening here on my site!

I also have a new bit in the members area however right now it is not yet filled with content. It will be my Guest Gallery and I have several girls already lined up to send me pictures but alas these things never happen as fast as you would like at times. ;-) If you have any preferences to what Pinup Girls or Models you would like to see in my soon to come Guest Gallery just let me know and I will try my best to make it happen!

Right, I would love to ask you all for your help with the new site... As the site goes up very soon I will be looking at all of it throughout the weekend to make sure there are no bugs or misspellings or or or... This is where you all can help! I would love for you to have a good dig around the entire site and let me know if it gives you any problems. If the site gives an error message please let me know what it says so it can be fixed asap!

So my little beta testers, keep your eyes peeled for the switch over and have at it!!! I do hope you like the new changes and at the same time I hope you will appreciate that the bits that made my old site fast and easy to use are still there! There have been major changes to back end of the site and mostly cosmetic changes to the front end. At the end of the day the most important change is I will now be able to add more and more fun stuff to it such as the Guest Gallery and more Downloadable goodies and well as Video!!!

Have fun and please, please let me know what you think and what you find! Thank You Sooooo much!!! x0x0x

Kisses,
Kate

Hello Folks!

I thought it was high time to add some news on here!!! I recently sent out a similar note to my members but thought you all might like to hear something from me too!

It seems to me that I have been trying to fly under the radar from a lot of
things since about the time my Nana passed away last summer. I know excuses
is not what you all want to hear but bear with me.

I would like to address most if not all the questions put to me in these
last few months.

What is happening to this site?
To be quite frank, I have gone AWOL that is what has happened. Without my
constant efforts to keep things going this site suffers and I get quiet and
I start feeling so bad that it makes me even more quiet! A vicious cycle I
know well.
I think it would be best for me to tell you what is happening in my life
before telling you about the site. To fill you all in on all the details of
my life for the last year would take hours and my fingers would cramp up for
sure. However I will try to give you the basics as brief as I can...
Lets see, for me personally the beginning of last year was a hard one. I was
struggling with where I belonged and things were not very clear to me in a
lot of areas. One part of trying to fix things was I moved house early last
year. Shortly there after I took a trip to the UK to stay with friends and
get my head straight. Unfortunately right in the middle of that trip my Nana
passed away. She was a very large part of my life. Looking back I guess it
hit me harder than I thought at the time. There were some major rifts in the
family and for some reason I was stuck in the middle trying to save what was
left of my family. I made it back for the memorial service on a 4 night
round trip from the UK to Northern Cali. Boy that took it out of me!
Being back with my friends really helped but I just didn't have the
excitement and drive needed to keep up on things around here. I do Pinup
best when I am happy and my artistic side has a chance to explore new ideas!
Well with not being settled about things personally and the site rework
taking longer than expected I was as would be expected not myself for a
while.
Things started to take a change for the better over the holidays however. I
realized that I was burning the candle at both ends travelling back and
forth from the US to the UK all the time. I just started to think of all the
reasons why I went there sooo much. For one, I did better and more work on
my site while in the UK. I also had the best of friends over there. Even the
climate was better for me than that of Phoenix! Duh! ;-) The list went on
and on, it just kept on growing for reasons to move to the UK. The thing
that finally tipped the scales for me was a romantic interest who lived over
there. ;-) So a few months and a lot of paperwork later I am currently
residing in the UK and very settled and very happy. Along with that I have
been diving back into my business and getting things back on the right
track. With the help of all those around me I am getting there! Finally!
Happy girl!

Is She going to rewrite the Web Site?
Yeppers! I have been in that process for over a year now! It has been a bear
to say the least! My guys doing the php coding run a business as well as
work on my site so their work comes first unfortunately. We are also trying
to make the site do some things that have proven to be close to impossible
but doable just the same!!! It is all a waiting game unfortunately and for
most of it my hands are tied.

When is Kate going to spend some more time with us?
Right Now! I have some spare time on my hands at times while I wait for
things to be done on my site... so... I will make a point to be in my members forum as much as I can... ;-)

How are her projects coming?
Oh goodness which ones?!?!? ;-) The Pinup Portal is an on going project and
I am working with Kitten von Mew on her new site as well as Lana Landis's new e-store with a few others that I'll let you know about as soon as they are ready! I will ask them all if they would like to be featured on my site if you like?!?!

Other projects include my offline Kate's Newsletter and catalogue. This too
has suffered in these last few months. I will be getting it sorted in this
next month and it will be back in distribution to those that joined up to
receive it!

Is Kate going to continue with some other Pinup Models?
Always! I am constantly giving advice and passing on info to those Pinups
that contact me nearly on a daily basis! As for modelling with them in
shoots that happens far and few between but it is never out of the question
;-)

Will we see some Digital Video of Kate?
I have all the equipment needed as well as the editing ability now! As you
all know I am a perfectionist and I will need to dedicate time just for it.
However as things stand at the moment I believe regular set updates is the
order of the day. Then when things are on track I will get stuck in and get
some Videos done!

Will we see some 3 D Photos of Kate?
Not sure about the regularity nor the amount of pics I'll do. However it is
one of those things that is always there and I would enjoy doing it for
sure!

08/30/2006 17:35

Back by popular demand "Evening Elegance Pt2" has arrived! These are some special pics taken with out the chair ;-) I hope you enjoy them!

I am back in the UK after a trip to attend my Nana's memorial service. It went really well and it was good to see most of my family. Thank you all for your prayers and sympathies.

This weekend I am off to enjoy the Goodwood Revival weekender! Lots of vintage cars racing like there is no tomorrow! I have been before and I have to say I can't wait!!! Most everyone that goes gets dressed up in vintage outfits, it is sooo fun! I'll be sure to get lots of piccies for you all!!!

Have a great week! and an even better weekend!!!

Kisses,
Kate

Savory and Sweet this "Blue Berry Tart" is sure to please!!! A perfect summer time treat! Sultry and Sassy but Cute and Coy all it one! ;-)

I will be traveling again shortly as I have found out my grandmother has passed away. So it's a trip to California all the way from the UK for me! I will only be going for 4 nights so it will be a very tiering trip for sure. Great timing too with all the airport shenanigans going on but I have to go. So Please keep me in your prayers and I will let you know I have made it back to the UK safe and sound. Thanks Sweeties!

Kisses,
Kate

Summer is never as much fun as a afternoon outside enjoying the sun and feeling the breeze in your hair! What better place to be than on a swing with your sweetheart looking on!?!?! Big flowing skirts were made for a reason! Enjoy this playful darling on her swing in "Summer Fun"!

As many of you know I have had more than a few things to deal with in the last month. For one I lost my Grandma and had to fly from the UK to CA for the memorial. That has sure taken its toll on me and my family. Thank you sooo much for all your support and prayers. In many other parts of my life things have been much better! I have been working on getting my site redone and upgraded at long last! I will have a few new goodies for you all very shortly! Mostly I will have new graphics and new Downloads available on the free pages! I am working on a few new projects as well, things just for you, my members!

Anyhoo, Thanks for the support and I will chat with you all in my forum soonly! ;-)

Kisses,
Kate

Part 2 of my latest set Esquire Fantasy has arrived!!! Having been caught with his girlie magazine this hubby (played by Lewis Copson) gets a treat he was not expecting! Instead of a scolding and tears this little lady of his decides to give him a private show! Lucky for you it wasn't for his eyes only! ;-)

In other news I have made the transition of my move with little to no snags! All is well on the Kate front and now it's back to work! I have to tell you I have some very exciting new sets for you all!!! You will get to see my blue corset in Blue Berry Tart, me lounging in the sun wearing a Letterman's jacket cheering on my sporty man, a homage to Bettie Page and her fire place pics, and then I also have a set where I am swinging really swinging!

I do hope that has wet your apatite for the coming shoots so keep your eyes peeled for the next updates they are gonna be whoppers!

Thanks for all your support and kind words as I have been sooo busy, you all are the greatest!!! x0x0x

Take care and look out for the Archive rotation tomorrow as well!!!

Big Kisses and Huggs,
Kate

Big News!

I am moving house! Weeee... Oh the fun things in life eh? I am very sorry I have been sooo quiet around here! I have just been up to my eyeballs in sorting and packing! Not to mention the prepping and selling of my old Jeep! There are just not enough hours in the day for me at the moment! I have about a week more before it is all done. So I will be back on track with everything around here once things are all sorted!

This move is a very good one for me as I will be closer to some folks that love me tons and help keep me on task and on time with my schedules! Being a perfectionist can have some major down falls! ;-)

Anyhoo, Please keep me in your prayers, this week especially. I need all the help I can get! ;-)

In Kate's Pinups News I have rotated the archives, so you will find Bet We Tempt You Pt 1, Faraway Friend and Polka Dottie! I do hope you enjoy them again or even for the first time!

I have also found some old pictures from the Rhythm Room Scorcher Car Show! Hot Rods and sunny summer skies, oh yea and ME too!!! Check them out in the Bonus Gallery!!! Vrrruuuumm...Vvrrrruuuuuummmmmm!!!

As for the latest set called "Esquire Fantasy" we see the return of the amazing Lewis! This time he is a hubby coming home after a long days work to his sweet wife and his favorite girlie magazine! Little does he realize it but his wife sees him with the magazine and begins to emulate the ladies gracing the pages! He is just oblivious to her efforts as she poses behind him! Then a twist as he realizes he has been caught! In part 2 you will get to see what happens next!

Again thanks for your patience with me and I promise to make things right in the very near future! ;-)

Kisses,
Kate

An instant classic with simple lines and theme. Sultry Silhouette, the original, created such a stir! A simple white blouse, a tight fitting black skirt and a hat to finish the look. Accompanied by all black underthings and focusing heavily on legs and stockings. Having been begged profusely to do it again and again I did ss2 and now ss3!!! Enjoy this timeless classic style and tell me if you would like to see a ss4! ;-)

I do hope you all will enjoy the new Sultry Silhouette 3!!! It has been a bear to say the least to get done for you. I do have a couple other sets just waiting to be set up and they will be much less hassle for sure. I am looking at the calendar to figure out when I can get the missing shoots in there for you all! I will do my best and let you all know my plan! Thanks again for all your support! I could not live with out it! ;-)

I am sure you have seen it but I put the December calendar up and made a desk top one too!!! Happy holidays!

Also the archives have the first installment of the Christmas sets!!! Next week will have the others and a new Christmas one as well!!!

Happy shopping and be safe!

Kisses,
Kate

You might think of a racing flag when you hear of the next set "Chequered Tease"! However you'll have to cool your jets for this little lady because she is all about the tease! Yummy!

As most of you know I have been fighting a pretty bad cold these last few weeks. Well it seemed to be getting better but then I have been hit hard with it again this week. I thank you all for your thoughts and prayers, I promise I am still smiling! ;-)

If all goes well tomorrow you will see the new Downloads page!!! Keep your fingers crossed!!!

I rotated the archives today as well! I will be doing the calendar tomorrow! ;-)

The Downloads page is nearly finished and I have just know you all will be pleased with all the wonderful backgrounds I have to start things off!

Thank you all for your well wishes, I am feeling much better today. Having never had Tonsillitis before it hit me pretty hard! ;-p

Put your hands together for our premier performer here tonight!!! Introducing Miss "Burlesque Bombshell"!!! Let's hear it for her folks!!!

I promised you all some big news earlier this week and here it is! I do hope you all will hear me out and share your comments as well! ;-)

As hard as it is for me to say it, I understand all the latest comments completely. I can not tell you how sad it makes me to fail you all. I know things have been really sporadic lately and I can only say I have been trying my best to get through.

I have made a plan and put it into motion to correct things and keep my sanity at the same time. It does involve a few changes. You see I want to be able to offer more *bang* for your buck, something I felt I was doing until recently.

This is what I have come up with. As I no longer have a helper with the corrections of the sets I will be changing the updates to every 10 days. Thus allowing me ample time to complete each set and run my business as well as take care of my personal life needs.

I am on schedule getting the next set up with in the 10 days after the last set was added. I do feel pretty good for myself in that respect.

I am also working on a few other tid bits! The first being the re-opening of my e-store! In doing so I am building up my Kate's Pinups merchandise!!! I have had many years now to really think up what I want to offer and I do believe I have a good start! Keep your eyes peeled!!!

The second thing I am working on is VIDEO!!! I know, I know, you all have waited what seems like an eternity for this but I have a camera now and I will be shooting several times this coming September!

Last but not least I am going to start selling more resent sets on the outside of my site. I believe I have something in the neighborhood of 150 sets to offer! We'll see how it turns out but I should be able to offer quite a few of them!!! ;-)

God Bless You all for your support! Thank you for your notes and well wishes! I am committed to making my site a great experience, after all this site is for your enjoyment!

Kisses,
Kate
;-)
