<br/>This girl wanted something different, something unique for her competition. Hence, this suit. It looks much better in person, then ornaments on her chest really pop!</div>

<br/>One of the many posing suits I've made this month.  This is a two-piece (obviously), almost exactly like <a href="http://www.competitionsuits.com/two_piece/individual.php?id=87">this suit</a>.  It seems to be a pretty popular model—not too many stones to distract from the body, but enough to get noticed!</div>

<div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Sorry for not writing for so long. I am really swamped with orders. I do, however, have some news and photos of some new suits. Here's one of them—<a href="http://www.rhondadethlefs.com/index.html">Rhonda Dethlefs</a> from New York. Here she is at the Team U competition. Rhonda's wearing the "night" suit (for night show's posing routine). More to come soon. I promise..<br/>

<div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">We finally made it back from Olympia. It was once again a very vivid, exilirating experience.  It was very inspiring that more and more people appreciate my work even among professional circles. The sales did not hit the record mark but the the higher level of recognition made my trip worth while. So, I am back now, well-rested, charged up with a lot of positive enery and ready to work, work hard.</div>

<content type="application/xhtml+xml" xml:base="http://www.competitionsuits.com/blog/" xml:space="preserve">
<div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">We are in Vegas finally.  After driving through snow and rain in Colorado, it's nice to sit in the pool in 85 degree weather.<br/>On the business side, I am noticing an increase in orders and many are "switching" from a certain J***wear company, many dissatisfied.  What can I say?!  I get the same people ordering suits from me who didin't even want to look my way at Arnold Classic last year. <br/>To all non-believers out there, stop by my booth, touch and feel the suits and then go to the J***wear booth and compare—then we'll talk!</div>
