PicKleTEL pickleball parodies VOLUME 2

If you are here you may have seen the short version video of PicKleTEL Volume 2 going around somewhere.

Here is the longer version to give you more of a taste of the tunes and following in the posts on my blog (just scroll back a few posts), you will find the full versions posted:

Ever since I started making pickleball parody REELs and short videos I've envisioned the K-Tel format  as a teaser video. It's how I grew up listening to music and I vividly recall watching the K-Tel commercials. My allowance money was just enough to buy a K-Tel album from the swap meet every once in a while.  I guess the nostalgia never left me and I still get the feels over it. Volume 1 was a pile of fun and I've just gotten deeper into pickleball and made more REELs since so here we are with Volume 2. I don't see an end. 

If I had more skill and videography skills and more than an iphone I'd do a better job of it all but I think  I get the point across so  I'm sticking with my role as creator.  Make the rough drafts up and share them out.  When things need a polish there is a time and place and people who love to do all that.

  PS the latest..... 

See ya soon pickleballers!

Am I wearing my top backwards? Not on purpose I'm not.....

So my new clothes have arrived ( a couple of my samples, anyhow ) and I am more in love with them than I hoped I would be. I immediately set to work on trying them on and decided to film the process and intro the clothes with whatever film I captured. See the video below to get a glimpse of my new goodies. 

If it seems like I'm delighted with the quality of the items I am, I am  so happy the colors in real life look as beautiful as  the colors in my imagination and on-screen, plus the make and fit are reliably supeior to the ones I could design on before.  These are all I was hoping for and I'm so excited.

This video I must admit I laughed at and watched a few times. It was because it made me laugh that I even kept my ass in there as I was pulling  my pants up over it. But it looked so ridiculous to me and I tried so hard to recover and the dragonfly looked so cool I decided to keep it in. 

And guess what. 

The dragonfly goes on the front.

that?



Honestly until a friend of mine asked me which way to wear it?  I had NO idea I was wearing it backwards. 

What an introduction. I've decided it's perfect and I'm keeping it in. 
If anything it will give people something to scratch their heads over. Giggle.

Anyhow, I don't expect people to wear all this stuff together by the way.  My items are not meant to be worn "party on the top and party on the bottom" always, unless you love literally being ALOT. Then by all means have at er.

Personally I usually wear a top OR a bottom and  then I pair them with a matching solid from one of my other favorite brands.  The pants I am wearing in this video are Lululemon  




The fit is true (I'm a large in most brands. A medium in generous brands and XL in fancy shit)  I'm wearing large for everything. 

Have fun and enjoy the new stuff, I sure am! xo
