The day before payday

I'm finally home after a long day of work.
Frendsel just stopped by. He gave mi this new edition of this magazine named Island Temptations. When I saw the cover I immediatly disliked it!
Ugh, it says pin-up is back. What THE Hell? These people know nothing about it!
I bet they don't even know who Betty Paige is or even Betty Grabble.
Today people just like the clothing, it's fashion and style. But they don't know where it all came from.

I personally like Betty Paige, the queen of pinup, YES.... THE QUEEN!
You need to have the personality to be a real pinup chick! The unique sense of style.
Appreciation for that era. Not everybody can pull this look off.

back to the magazine....
The models, OH MY! the models.
yes they can strike a pose or two but it shows that they have no appreciation for this era. It doesn't look real. I know some of them don't know anything about pinups. Cloths does not give you the 1950's attitude dears...

Me and my buddy always wanted to do something like this, but his camera got stolen.
I've been studying Betty's poses for a while now. I think it's rather fascinating!
Nowadays you have to be skinny to be considerd pretty. If we go back to that era it is nothing like today. The models have a nice figure with some meat! YEAH! thumbs up for that!...
That was considerd real beauty! And I think that's why the pinup models in that time where comfortable in their body's. It really show in the pictures...

Viva Betty!

I share the same opinion! Pin ups should be kept real!
