I’m always fascinated by other people’s houses, purses, what kind of groceries they buy.. I guess I’m just curious and a tad bit nosy. I wanted to give you guys a virtual tour of my stripper suitcase, not only because there are a ton of voyeurs out there, but there are a lot of new strippers that ask me what I carry around with me.

I’ll start from the left:

1. Baby wipes. Get a giant case of them, because they’re your best friend. Wipe your ass and thighs down after giving dances, or you may break out. They’re also great for removing your makeup at the end of the night.

2. My necklace. This is my trademark necklace. It serves as a conversation starter. I bought it from the Milwaukee Art Museum a few years ago. It was made by some women’s co-op in Africa.

3. A disposable shaver. This is in case you realize you missed a spot once you get to work.

4. Coconut body cream. It keeps your hands and skin soft and hydrated, and it smells nice without being overpowering.

  5. Lavanilla Coconut perfume oil roller.
  6. Bath & Body Works Coconut Vanilla body lotion. It reeks of stripper.
  7. Extra contact lenses. You never know when you’ll lose a contact.
  8. Gauze pads. To cover up bruises, tattoos, or sore spots on your feet from your shoes.
  9. Athletic tape. This is a must have. It saves your feet when breaking in a new pair of heels.
10. Tide To Go Stick. In case some jackass spills something on me.
11. Tampons. That explains itself.
12. Capscaicin. It’s like Icy Hot or Bengay. It helps with sore muscles, but beware taking a hot bath afterward.
13. Dry shampoo. In case your hair goes flat or looks oily.
14. Contact solution. In case you get pubes in your eye or something. Or just to take out your contacts at the end of the night.
15. Tom’s Unscented Natural Deodorant. Between your deodorant, perfume, lotion, vag spray, hairspray, and all the other Victoria’s Secret body sprays clouding up the dressing room, it’s best to smell somewhat natural. I make way more money when I wear unscented, natural deodorant. Chalk it up to pheromones?
16. My iPod. For when bitches be actin’ all crazy. I don’t want them ruining my night with their drama.
17. My sales notebook. It’s full of sales tips, one-liners for selling dances and VIP, and other various goodies.
18. A microwavable clay hot pack. It helps make my arthritic joints feel better during the night.
19. My iPad. If it’s slow, I usually read a book.
20. Tack spray and/or pole grip wax (not pictured). Use it for getting a better grip on the pole.
21. Hand sanitizer (not pictured). Keep your hands clean, because you get sick a lot in this industry.
In my stripper bag:
Black and nude Victoria’s Secret thigh highs. Get the ones with the silicone lining.
Various thigh high athletic socks for when it’s cold in the club.
Various black and white g-strings, v-strings, and y-strings.
Purple microkini.
White bikini.
Superman and Robin knee high socks.
Two pairs of Batman panties.
Fishnet thigh highs.
White bridal corset with matching panties & garters.
Green corset.
Wet look tank top, zip-down shorts, and tube dress.
Zip down collared black mini-dress.
Polka dot pinup style bustier.
Black gown for VIP night.
Green Chynna Dolls scrunch butt mini bikini.
Custom made black and red striped mini bikini.
Tiny black pleated skirt.
Ruffle panties.
Black knit legwarmers.

I try to carry dance clothes that can be made into several outfits. Individual costumes take up a ton of space.

On a side note, I am totally against vagina spray. It smells like grandmas, and you’re going to make less money if you use it. Guys like your natural scent, not some sick concoction of baby powder, Victoria’s Secret Very Sexy, coconut, deodorant, and vanilla.

If any new dancers have any questions, feel free to ask me on Tumblr or Formspring!
