The Circle of Life

New Cuff Design from Sexy Skins!



The Circle of Life is an intricate and sophisticated leather cuff and arm band, yet it embodies a simplistic style with an ease of wear. Its design was inspired by the circle, an ancient and universal symbol of unity, wholeness, and infinity. The circle represents the strength of the human spirit, and for the artist and his relationship with his craft; the meld of head, hand and heart.



The focal piece in The Circle of Life is a 2" diameter gunmetal ring. Attached to each side of the ring, are two 5/8" wide by 4" long leather straps. A total of six heavy duty gunmetal snaps secure ring and straps onto the cuff base. Ring and straps are completely detachable from cuff base, making the Circle of Life adjustable to fit wrist/arm size 6 1/2" up to 12 1/2". All measurements are approximate.



The Circle of Life is hand crafted using 5-7 ounce Latigo Leather. All the edges and the back are finished and burnished smooth.


This item can be custom made to fit but will add 2-4 weeks onto the delivery time.

Sexy Skins Does Laconia Bike Week

No excuses but I certainly have good reason for such a lag in posts. I have been "crazy" BUSY! Sexy Skins has participated in numerous events and fashion shows throughout the past months, with the most recent at Laconia Bike Week. I knew eventually we would be showing Skins up there, but I never imagined it would be this year!! Thanks to The Tigerlily Band for introducing us to the owners of The Paradise beach Club who graciously allowed us to set up a booth in their establishment...the only vendor ever mind you...and strut our stuff on stage with Lily and the band. Check back here to view the video (once I figure out how to load it up). lol


For me, the highlight of this event was watching as our lovely models dressed in Sexy Skins of course, straddle the motorcycles of our biker friends as we rode through the streets of Laconia. The massive crowds who line the streets were stretching their necks to catch a glimpse of our leather procession. Cameras were raised and photos were snapped as we made our way, but it was I who should have been capturing the moment for the expressions on the faces of those who saw us, made me giggle. If anyone caught Sexy Skins Leather Parade with either stills or video, PLEASE send them to me!!!

Our stay in Laconia seemed way too short, but was long enough to meet so many wonderful people. I was very touched by all the women who expressed their appreciation for my art and the service we provide to design and fit all sizes and shapes. A very successful bike builder who came to see our show asked what separates our leather from the leather of other companies, and that is it! We at Sexy Skins know first hand how empowering it is to wear leather that fits us right. We understand that our world is curvy and no two curves are exactly the same. Sexy Skins hugs them all!!!

I will end this post with a special thank you to all our fans, friends, and colleagues who lent their support, and to our lovely models for trekking the distance to participate in what will go down in history as being my most memorable bike week ever!!! Thank YOU!!! xoxoxoxo

The Story of Bethany Sue


















Once upon a time in a land where the cows moo,

There was a beautiful maiden who was lost and lonely, her name was Bethany Sue.

She found herself in need of a ride

To a place far, far, away where she hoped her prince charming would reside.

Bethany Sue knew getting a ride on these roads was a task not so easy,

So her first choice was to wear leather, but leather that wasn't sleazy.

She laced up her sexiest of all her halter tops

And took to the street, in hopes that someone would stop.

Her thumb she stuck out with arm extended,

Looking so hot in her Sexy Skins she surrendered

To the idea that just around the corner a hog would come

Not of the breathing kind, but one of steel adorned with some

Shiny chrome, leather, and a biker dude straddling the seat,

Enjoying the rays of sun and the summer heat.

One who would be willing to stop in the midst of their ride,

And allow her to take her place as his bitch, and ride with pride.

A moment later a leather clad biker dude comes her way but doesn't stop,

Which made Bethany Sue raise her arms to show off her sexy leather top

To the next biker dude in her sight,

Slowing down to stop he just might.

Her thumb now waving by her side,

Mr. Harley Davidson stops and asks her to go for a ride.

Bethany Sue looks him in the eyes, smiles, then mounts his trusty steed.

She holds on to him tight as he shift into gear, gives it throttle, and off they proceed

Into the sunset with smiles gleaming from ear to ear,

Mr. Harley Davidson and Bethany Sue enjoying the freedom of a journey without any fear.



The End

Win at Seacoast Harley Davidson - Proceeds donated to Women with Breast Cancer

Freya is on display and up for bidding in a silent auction at
Seacoast Harley Davidson in N. Hampton, NH. Phone in bids are accepted!! Call 603-964- 9959 or 888-333-0001. The winner will be announced at Seacoast Harley Davidson's Customer Appreciation Day this Saturday, May 16th.

♥♥♥♥ The winner will have Freya made to fit them - this is a custom piece, hand-crafted from Top Grade Genuine Cowhide Leather, and lined with 100% Pure Silk...Only the Best for the Best. ♥♥♥♥


Sexy Skins Suede and Leather Fashions, based in Newmarket NH, teamed up with Seacoast Harley Davidson in North Hampton, NH, and Brenda Fox – journalist, stunt person and high-profile motorcycle enthusiast from Los Angeles, to bring aid to women who are battling with both breast cancer and finances. Brenda’s own personal battle with the disease has created the opportunity for her, through “Every Woman Counts”, a program which provides low-income women access to screening, diagnostic and follow-up services for breast and cervical cancer, to meet women who do not have insurance or the means to pay their medical bills. Breast cancer is the most common female cancer and the second leading cause of female cancer deaths in the United States. To find breast cancer early, the National Cancer Institute recommends that women in their 40s and older should have a mammogram every 1 to 2 years.

At their Customer Appreciation Day on Saturday, May 16, Seacoast Harley Davidson will be announcing the winner of a beautiful, custom-made lady’s biker vest, “Freya”, created by Sexy Skins designer, Lisa Cantalupo. “It was shortly after my oldest sister died from Leukemia that one of my clients, bike builder Alan Lee, told me about Brenda and her battle with breast cancer," says Lisa. "When I learned about what she had endured - not only was she faced with having to fight for her life, but at the same time she had to worry about how she was going to pay for it - I felt the need to do something so women can focus on their healing, and nothing else. I’m not stopping with Freya either. In honor of my sister Dianne, Sexy Skins Suede and Leather Fashions will donate to,” Women Motorcyclist”, the platform which Brenda has established to support women with Breast cancer, $5.00 from the sale of each “Love Pouch”, the name chosen by my children for the hand-crafted leather pouch with a red heart.”

Lisa, a motorcycle rider herself, designed Freya with the lady biker in mind; however, this vest is perfect for women who desire classic style with a bit of rocker flare. Double zipper in front, zippered sides and front zippered pockets, and hand-stitched ribbing accentuate the hips; the vest is halter style with a Sexy Skins signature collar.

Brenda Fox is committed to helping women overcome the challenges related to breast cancer. She says “The motorcycle industry had given me support at a time when my life crashed. Now, I can support others through projects like “Freya”. I am grateful to have the opportunity.”

This is a silent auction. Phone-in bids are accepted for those who do not live nearby. To place your bid or get more information, please call Seacoast Harley Davidson at 603-964- 9959 or 888-333-0001. For questions regarding Freya, please call Sexy Skins Suede and Leather Fashions at 603-969-6684 or email, sexyskins@comcast.net.

The organizers offer special thanks to Sexy Skins Suede and Leather Fashions, Seacoast Harley Davidson, Brenda Fox, MacDonald Leathers, model Joanna Karambelas, photographer Jamie Wade and all those who have donated their time and effort.
