why??? why not??

Pin-up answers:

You shouldn’t have to ask, the ‘Pin-ups’ are better because:
1. They are not deluded into trying to fit into a delusion, a perception of an abnormal reality.
2. They are women who appear to be content with the way they look and who they are.
3. They do not look like they might break, if you touch them.

Well, I do like our modern gal’s outfit…

Sandy asks…

50s Pin-up Halloween Costume?

I really wanted to be a 50s swing girl dress (not slutty costume), but after looking everywhere, I can’t find anything in my budget. So I’m going for more of a 50s pin-up dress. Which do you think is the most 50s-ish? Or do you have any suggestions to where I could find a CHEAP swing dress?

here are some that are 50’s ;pin-up girl costumes:

Lisa asks…

HELP! I’d like to be a pin-up girl for halloween?

I AM INTERESTED.. in being a pin up girl or a sexy starlet from back in the day, 30-50s perhaps? like a Marilyn Monroe or an old playmate centerfold for an example. I want to look sexy, but classy – any ideas of what the woman of that time period wore and where I can get some things?

THANKS .

Nancy asks…

Halloween costumes ideas – which sounds better?

40s pin-up girl
50s girl
vampire
dead girl/ghost

or other ideas? And I also need suggestions on what my hair should be like (thinking of getting a wig) and the clothes? But something suitable for my body. I’m averaged a UK size 10 (US 6-8 depending… keeps changing wherever i look lol) and I’m 5′ 8 1/2
