Infinite Eternity
"The brain may take advice, but not the heart, and love, having no geography, knows no boundaries..." Truman Capote
Unboundedness, the quality of being infinite; without bound or limit. In the English language, the term infinity derives from the Latin word, _Infinitas_. In philosophy and mathematics, infinity is used as an idea that refers to no end. In ancient Tibet and India, the symbol for infinity was considered to represent unity, perfection, and dualism. And for some, it symbolizes eternal love.
Introducing, The Infinity Floating Bracelet, created by Lisa Cantalupo from Sexy Skins Leather Fashions, and Kristina Backes from Tinken Jewelry. The Infinity Symbol, hand-forged Sterling Silver and polished to perfection, floats effortlessly on a handcrafted luxury leather band. The Floating Infinity Symbol is interchangeable, and the bands are available in four colors and two styles; thin, and a wide "Wrap" band. Each bracelet is handcrafted with love and made-to-order.
To make a purchase, click, Infinity Bracelets and Cuffs.
To take advantage of the introductory price, enter code **INFINITY** when checking out, and your order will be discounted 20%.

Sexy Skins Leather and Tinken Jewelry Collaboration
I am very excited about the Sexy Skins collaboration with Kristina Backes from Tinken Jewelry! Kristina holds a degree in all areas of Goldsmithing and Jewelry Design from the Goldsmith Academy of Vicenza, Italy. Over the past 10 years, Kristina has worked in the jewelry field extensively in both Germany and Italy.
My relationship with the German born jeweler began with the collaboration on a custom piece for one of my clients. Kristina and I soon realized we had more in common than just sharing a passion for creating with our desired mediums, and we began to explore the possibilities of marrying metal with leather to create a collection of exquisite jewelry for both men and women.
The first design in our collection will utilize interchangeable leather bands to showcase Kristina's sterling silver sculptures which float gracefully in the center; each with its own special meaning, and with bands available in four different colors of very luxurious Aztec leather. Also as part of our collection, Kristina and I have designed Sterling Silver and White Gold “beads” which will adorn gorgeous handcrafted Kangaroo leather braided cuffs. Due for release in April.

The J. Geils Band Concert and Magic Dick
What an AWESOME weekend!! If you have been tuning in lately, then you know, I was hired by Magic Dick from the legendary J. Geils Band, and wife, Susan to design and create a custom leather jacket for him to wear at the J. Geils Homecoming Concert in Boston this past Saturday. With only a week to do it (a custom jacket, from start to finish can take over 3 months), there were many long days and sleepless nights - but I did it!
Susan picked up his jacket Saturday morning. She loved it! But the true test would be Dick because as a performer, his needs are different than the average person. Function is as important, if not more, than fashion. I had to alter the pattern and the design to allow for comfort and mobility on stage. And without the necessary time for the proper amount of fittings, I had to go with my gut and trust my instincts. Saturday afternoon I received word in the form of a text that read, "Dick LOVES his jacket! Thank You!!!!!!". Yay!!!....that was obviously what I wanted to hear. Now I was even more excited about going to see Dick, and the Geils Band perform that evening.
We arrived in town around 7:00, picked up our tickets and VIP passes at the door (Thank you, Susan!), and walked toward the concession stand to fill our tummies. We ate and found our seats. Brent, the person who came into my life at the perfect time and gave me the courage to follow my dream, got the best seat for viewing. I sat between my two boys, the two most important people in my life, therefore, the best seat in the house. In fact, it was my oldest, who when times were at the toughest, came into my office, threw his leg around the arm of the chair, and with the deepest sincerity said, "Mom, no matter what...never give up on Sexy Skins". So much wisdom from a 13 year old because it was those words which gave me the incredible power to continue on my journey.
Finally, the J. Geils band took center stage and the show began! There he was, Magic Dick, wearing his new jacket, looking sexy as hell!! What an AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME, concert!!! The J. Geils Band rocks!!! The music was fantastic! And, boys shared their first concert experience with me, reaping some of the rewards too like going back stage to meet the band and spend some time with Dick in his dressing room. Dick is a very special and talented human being. I'm so grateful for this experience in more ways than the obvious. Simply, AWESOME...:-)

Life is GOOD and My Pants are Too Tight!
You would think with a company name such as Sexy Skins, most of my clients would be slim and trim. Maybe you would think that its founder and designer, would be also. Well, they're not, and I'm not. In fact, in the last year or so, I have put on a few extra pounds. My pants are too tight, and I'm okay with that!
Life is Good! Business is great! I am in love with my life! I spend each day living my dream and following my passion. I will admit, it has NOT been an easy road traveled AT ALL, but it has been a very fulfilling one. So, why am I okay with the fact my pants are too tight?
Well, I know I tend to gain a few pounds when I get stressed and too busy to concentrate on "me". And I am busy. I'm a mother of two wonderful boys ages 16 and 11. They bring so much joy and love to my life (and at times, aggravation, but I love that too). I attend most of their games and there are a lot of them. I enjoy spending as much time with them as I can which never seems to be enough. I just adore them.
Sexy Skins has never been so busy. It's so exciting to give birth to an idea, put your heart and soul into every inch of its existence, then watch as it grows right before your eyes. We have the most amazing clients and have worked on some really spectacular projects. I'm extremely grateful for the opportunities that have arisen!
I am blessed to have great friends who have stood by my side through the best times and the worst. They continue to offer their support and are patient with my busy life and schedule. They push me, and encourage me to continue. They even create opportunities that I may have passed by.
No doubt my life is full....along with favorite black pants when I try to squeeze my fanny into them. And that's okay. I know when things settle a bit, I'll be able to focus more on myself, exercise more, and eat better. With a less stressful life, the hormones will be more in check too. It's really up to me to take control, reduce stress, and find balance, and I will work on that along with reminding the Sexy Skins world that you are beautiful, no matter what the size your pants are!!
We must stop being so hard on ourselves and feel bad because we're not a perfect size 0 like we see in magazines, on the runway, and on TV. If you are blessed with the perfect body, good for you! You need to call me and wear Sexy Skins! If you're like me, you need to call me and wear Sexy Skins too! Remember, if you pants are too tight, why torture yourself? Buy a bigger size! But always hold on to the smaller pair because even if you won't want to admit it, you will want to wear those again...and you will!
Love and Peace, and fanny stuffing pants,

A New Year Resolution....
We all make them, although I’m not sure why because myself, I never seem to keep them. I think that is because once a month or two passes, I seem to forget what it was I proclaimed I would change which is ridiculous since it’s pretty similar from year to year; I will eat less, exercise more, go to bed and rise earlier, work less with more family time, get more organized, motivated, driven and focused...yada, yada, yada. Rest assured, “Eating less” makes the list year after year.
I have always struggled with self-image which is why eating less makes my New Year’s Resolution list time and again. I grew up in a household where being slightly overweight was frowned upon. Thin was in. We were teased. We were insulted. One time when I responded enthusiastically with “Cheerleader Daddy!” to the, “what do you want to be when you grow up” question asked of every child, my Father burst into laughter and replied, “You will never be a cheerleader with those thighs” . As you can imagine, that was not something I found hysterical nor did I appreciate my dream being shattered in that way. I spent my teenage years as a cheerleader in an attempt to prove him and his memory wrong.
It has been decades since then, and I have not forgotten what was said on that day. I have spent years trying to forget those words and erase the hurt they left behind. On occasion, I have had “light bulb moments” where I finally see things as an adult should. Other times, I become that 8 year old little girl again, forgetting who I am and what is important. I have to remind myself of what it was I should have been told as a child and that even though perfection does not exist, how nice it would have been if the people who gave me life had helped me to believe that I was close to it, just the way I was and regardless of my size and shape.
If we have the belief that we are not good enough, thin enough, pretty enough, _______enough (you fill in the blank), of course we are not going to be. And if we feel a void or emptiness from not being enough, then we will find things to fill it like excessive food, drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, and even sex. If we could just accept ourselves with our faults, weaknesses, and the less appealing attributes we all seem to possess, then maybe we would not need to find ways of filling that void. If we could embrace our uniqueness, we would feel less empty and in its place maybe we would feel peace and contentment and actually like the person we are. And, maybe now we would be able to identify what is truly important in our lives, and focus on achieving our goals and living our dreams. Just maybe….
This year of 2011 my resolution will come from my heart because I have learned when it comes from the heart, the mind will follow. Change starts from within. So I, with resoluteness, will remind myself each day that I am beautiful; inside and out, mind, body and soul, regardless of shape and size, wealth and fame, status and success. I invite you to join me. Together, let’s make 2011 the year our dreams come true!

This blog entry, albeit of personal nature, I feel has much to do with the business of leather and Sexy Skins. So many have expressed to me a desire to be sexy but don't feel sexy because in their own mind, they don't see themselves that way and for different reasons. Sexy is a state of mind. Sexy comes in all sizes, shapes, ages, and colors. Sexy shows no prejudice. Get your sexy on in 2011!
Women of all sizes and shapes wearing Sexy Skins...myself included.
Please feel free to leave comments and share your journey with me below. ♥

Lisa's Picks for the Gift Giving Season
The Holiday Season is upon us. Shopping for gifts can sometime feel like a task. I thought it may be helpful to offer a bit of gift giving advice to our Sexy Skins followers.
Fashion is in my blood (I was probably designing clothing in my Mother’s womb and she and my Grandma were sewing before they ever learned how to ride a bicycle). I have my BFA degree in Fashion Design. I can draw, paint, decorate...you name it, if it has anything to do with creating, I can do it. Besides all that, I usually am the one you will speak with when you call Sexy Skins or email with questions or to place an order. I'm always the one who measures our clients, and the one who drafts their pattern. I am the only designer for Sexy Skins. I am also Sexy Skins best customer!! I have worn everything!! Who better than me to handle the responsibility of helping you do your Sexy Skins shopping?
So without further ado, here are my 10 top Sexy Skins picks:
10. Zen Cuff….what I love about the Zen Cuff is pretty simple; it looks hot on my man! And I have to admit, it looks hot on every guy I have seen wear it. It’s a simple, uncomplicated and sexy design. Period.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/47631018/the-zen-cuff
9. Kiss Me Halter…one of my favorite halter designs because it looks great on every woman whom I have made one for, and here’s why: It was designed that way! It was meant to flatter the figure and lift the puppies. To ensure that, all I need is her bra and cup size. Waist measurement helps too. If you’re not sure what color combinations she may want, then a gift certificate may be the way to go.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/6653911/the-kiss-me-brown-suede-leather-halter
8. Large Brown LOVE Pouch….I confess, was a designer’s accident and I’m glad it happened! It’s different, attractive, and functional. This is a great leather bag to cart around your makeup, school supplies or travel goodies. And, 10% of its sale is donated to charity through Etsy Project Embrace.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/61309473/large-brown-love-pouch-transformed
7. X-Cuff…is available in so many pretty colored rhinestones including Black (Black is missing from the photograph)!! Just the right amount of bling to keep the look sophisticated and classy, but without losing that biker style. It’s a great looking cuff! And made with the same top grade latigo leather used on our belts except the X-Cuffs are a little thinner making them comfy to wear.
http://www.etsy.com/shop/SexySkins?section_id=6523715
6. Sequoyah Suede Scoop….one of my personal favorites for the color alone. I LOVE purple! I LOVE the scooped front! It shows just the perfect amount of cleavage so you feel sexy, and classy while wearing it. It’s affordable too!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/61303087/the-sequoyah-suede-scoop-halter-top
5. LOVE Belt….this is one nice belt just for the leather we use alone. We don’t line the belt because we don’t have to. We use top grade, thick, latigo leather in black or brown. All we need is the size you want it (instructions on how to measure are posted on the listing to purchase). A great looking belt with a beautiful buckle which coordinates perfectly with the entire LOVE Series Line with 10% of the sales donated to charity through Etsy Project Embrace.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/61299763/the-love-belt
http://www.etsy.com/listing/55248719/the-love-belt-in-brown
4. LOVE Hip Pouch/Purse….I created the design and made the prototype based upon my own personal needs. I wore it around on and off the motorcycle for a while, then went back to the drafting board to make changes to the design, and voila! I LOVE the LOVE Hip Pouch/Purse!! It’s so versatile…one minute it’s a hip pouch attached to your belt loops, then in seconds, you can clip the shoulder strap on and you’re good to go wearing it as a purse instead. I think the design is just beautiful and it matches the LOVE Belt and other LOVE accessories!! I LOVVVVVVVVVVVE it!

http://www.etsy.com/listing/47502193/the-new-and-improved-love-hip-bag-purse
3. Trilogie Cuff…rugged, sexy, masculine all in one cuff!!! When I see a guy wearing the Trilogie, I get the goose bumps. There’s just something about the way it looks on a man’s wrist. The photograph does not do it justice. You really have to see for yourself.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/61304310/trilogie-latigo-leather-cuff
2. Heaven Halter…we sell more of this design than any other, and in all different colors, and even some with little changes like; closing up the front tummy, the addition of side slits, and covering up the extra bit of junk in the back…oh and ask me about my little cutlet secret. The Heaven makes my top 10 list not just for those reasons but because, you can wear it without wearing a bra! All Sexy Skins are designed that way – to lift and support! I hate bras!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/15037052/beige-heaven-lambskin-leather-halter-top
http://www.etsy.com/listing/7301787/the-blue-heaven-lambskin-leather-halter
1. And my number ONE Sexy Skins pick is……drum roll please……honestly, I couldn’t decide! It is a toss-up between the Santa Fe Suede Halter and all the custom clothing we create here at Sexy Skins (in case you haven’t heard, Sexy Skins is NH Magazines Best for Custom Leather).
I love the Santa Fe for its beautiful cut. This design ROCKS!!! It supports! It lifts! It separates! It looks great in suede! It looks fantastic in leather (Vegas Heat)! Beautiful with the addition of bling, with grommets, or with an inlay design…even with nothing at all! It feels beautiful on your skin! It is sexy, and it looks good on every single woman I have seen it on from the tiniest of busts to the double D’s. The Santa Fe is my all-time favorit, by far!!!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/10597550/vegas-heat-red-lambskin-leather-halter
http://www.etsy.com/listing/15025953/the-brown-santa-fe-suede-halter-top
I get so much joy making people happy so the experience of working intimately with an individual to design and create a custom piece that they will enjoy wearing for a long time, also has to be my number one pick. Some of my most creative pieces have come from working with some very extraordinary people. We even have seen Sexy Skins being worn on television! Maybe you will recognize one…
