![]() I always did love being in front of the camera, even as a kid. As the shoots went on, my talent for posing and taking pictures really shined through. I felt empowered, with a certain high that I felt comfortable in. My self esteem went through the roof, and I finally felt pretty. Looking back at the pictures now, I realize how shy and confused I looked, but at the time, I thought it was the most amazing thing I had ever done. In 2007 One of my friends convinced me to do a pinup shoot just for fun, so I saved the money and booked a shoot. ![]() Now I make everything myself, and never have to worry about where my next dress will come from. And in time, I had finally learned how to apply make-up and style my hair in my own unique way. But the vintage clothes I wanted to wear never fit or were in bad condition, so I decided to take up sewing and make my own vintage inspired clothing. But those experiences had ultimately taught me about the lifestyle along my journey. But before the pinup modeling, I was in a few crews, car clubs, got into some fights, and got into trouble with the law. So, I decided to lose 40 pounds, and put on some make-up. I even took my driving test in it, and passed the first time, even without an emergency break and no seat belts. In 2006 I found some interesting rockabilly girls who groomed me into the beautiful person I am today. Yeah, yeah, I know it’s a Ford, but it’s my Ford. I bought my first car when I was 18 years old, that is still my daily driver today, a 1965 Ford Ranchero truck. My life was pretty lonely, until I finally unleashed the real beauty I had patiently lurking inside of me, waiting to explode. Music and the dreams of classic cars and vintage pinup girls and hot rod guys became my best friends, in a time when I had none. I didn’t grow up with any real influences for a rockabilly life, but somehow old music was my escape from the my horrible modern reality. The old music called to me, inviting me into a different world where times were simple and the people were unique. ![]() Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee Lewis, were a constant influence in my life. My favorite book growing up was, “The Outsiders”, and I seemed to always have a crush on the occasional greaser kid in school. As far back as I can remember, I always wanted a classic car and a hot rod boyfriend. I just didn’t know how, and didn’t have rockabilly friends to teach me. But I always had a fascination with the Rockabilly lifestyle, and wanted to live the greaser life. Instead, I was an outcast, a freak, the fat, ugly kid, a loner or a loser during all my years of school, and was made fun of everyday. I never even wore everyday make-up until I was 20 and in college. I was never the pretty, popular girl I longed to be. It’s feeling and living that emotion. It’s like acting. That’s why now days, I can be very universal with my modeling. The Black Ravens Gothic Clothing store was my favorite place to find my gothic clothes. I was Gothic, country, rocker, heavy metal head banger, punk, classic rocker, drench coat kid, raver, and many other weird and random things in between. Growing up I struggled to find myself, and was apart of every genre known to man. I’ve been alternative modeling, and pinup modeling since 2007, and I’ve wedged myself deep within the Rockabilly subculture, which is now my whole life and being. Pin-up models like Dixie exude sex appeal and stand out in a crowd of beautiful women.īio: My name is Dixie Rebelle, I’m 24 years old, and I’m a Leo from Fullerton, California.
