More Dita Von Teese @ Cointreau - The Performance

A good day is a Dita Von Teese day!
Savour the deliciously "Cointreauversial" burlesque bomshell performing her signature martini-glass-routine, specially edited for the Cointreau event in NYC last week. 500 party revelers sipped Cointreaupolitans and Cointreau Margaritas before being treated to the highlight of the night, the reveal of the "Be Cointreauversial Show". Strutting on stage in her crystal-encrusted costume, designed by Catherine D’Lish (made of 350,000 Swarovski crystals and weighing approximately 75 pounds) she posed and pranced before plunging into her giant martini glass.
I wish I had been there!!

More Dita Von Teese For Cointreau

Doesn't she look like the perfect 1950's June Cleaver-housewife?

Dita Von Teese exuding her signature nostalgic glamour on these new Cointreau promotional images. The chic French liquor maison has Ms. Von Teese as their new face (and body) and this is a match made in heaven in my opinion. Dita is flawless and Little-Pumpkins will always show her much love and adoration!

The Wonderful World Of Bill Ward - King Of Glamour Girls

Bill Ward's long, prolific pin-up career began during World War II when he created a curvy distraction named Torchy for his fellow soldiers. His taste for impossibly buxom blondes—teetering on stiletto heels, legs encased in black nylon, torsos packed into satin gowns—precisely suited America`s collective postwar sex fantasy, and the late 50s men`s magazine boom made him the most popular girlie artist in the country. Through the 1960s, 70s, 80s, and 90s, Ward broadened his range to embrace a variety of fetish subjects, but he never varied from his template of the Ultimate Woman—except to make her breasts a little bigger, her heels a little higher, or the satin and leather encasing her a little glossier.

Dita Von Teese @ Mont Blanc Event

What's a better way to start the weekend than drooling at new images of burlesque Goddess Dita Von Teese? Even if I were to try really hard I can't come to find faults with her ever-perfect personal style and flawless beauty. Check out her manicure job! Click to enlarge the images and savour in delight of her peachy skin and minimal make-up. If I had to be extra-picky I would say ditch that cigar, Dita. I am sure that on a fetish level they do work for some but cigars REALLY stink and smoking is just gross altogether. Otherwise you can do no wrong!

Why not? Girls On Bikes

I went all ADD when looking up these images on Ffffound. I was just browsing around, no agenda, when this first image comes up and every time I click on it another related photo (or not) will come up. It's a fun hunt and I probably spent a good 20 minutes jumping from page to page. The results became my "Girls on Bikes" post, a mix of current and vintage images and illustrations with a hint of camp, a dash of nostalgia and a cup full of cool. Enjoy!

Adriana Lima @ GQ

Supermodel (and fellow Brazilian) Adriana Lima is GQ's April 2008 cover girl. She is mostly known as a Victoria's Secret Angel and for her sultry green eyes and pouty lips on the Maybelline campaigns. Adriana is 25 years old and hails from Bahia, in the Northeast part of Brazil. She has been linked to several male celebrities including Lenny Kravitz and Derek Jeter. Currently Lima is dating Serbian basketball player Marko Jarić of the NBA Minnesota Timberwolves. This is Adriana's second GQ cover and it's April 2006 issue was the year's best selling for the magazine.
In an accompanying interview with GQ in the same issue, Lima told the magazine that she is a devoted Catholic who attends church every Sunday and is a virgin. "Sex is for after marriage," she explained. "They (men) have to respect that this is my choice. If there's no respect, that means they don't want me." US GQ dubbed her as "The World's Most Voluptuous Virgin."
