Suggestive Vintage French Postcards
The dog is mad because he smells ass...
What is she holding on that tray?? Is that what I think it is??
Your granny-panties will you if you drink too much wine in France...
...he loves my ass, he loves it not...
This card is very "subtle" but you get the idea...
It looks to me like two guys getting some "Brokeback Mountain" alone-time....
You are supposed to pick what you'd like to do together, like a prayer, a poem, make love or make babies. Tough choices...but I pick the sex one!
The Girl From Ipanema - 1965
This 1965 video shows Brazilian singer/composer Tom Jobim singing his classic "Girl From Ipanema" alongside American pop singer Andy Williams. Besides the obvious retro charm of Andy Williams' "Lost In Space" sweater this is just a joy to watch and listen to. I love all these mellow Bossa Nova rhythms and being Brazilian-born myself it also brings back some great childhood flashbacks... Love it!

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!
Saved By The Bell - The Slater T-Shirt Collection
I have to confess that 80's sitcom "Saved By The Bell" was never a favorite of mine - bad acting, bad fashion, bad plots... But as true nostalgia lover I can't help to succumb to the charm of these "homage" T-shirts to SBTB's Latino resident-hunk AC Slater - better known now as "Dancing With The Stars" hottie Mario Lopez. He has come a long way from that curly mullet and has even showed his muscle-y bottom on TV's "Nip/Tuck" a couple of seasons ago, but still that dimply smile is quite irresistible so get yourself a Slater tee and show him some love, will'ya?
"Don't Be A Slater Hater." US$20.00
Both available at 80'sTees.com.

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.

Retro Beauty Ads
I am such a sucker for nostalgia that I just spent the last 15 minutes of my life browsing though hundreds of really cool vintage beauty ads on Flicker. It's so amazing to see what women really went through to keep up with beauty trends through the past 30 plus years and some of these fashions were pretty scary in retrospect. How long did one take to ready? Geez, some of those hair styles are sculptural to say the least! I am sure that in 3o years from now people will be saying the same things about our current beauty looks but nothing beats the late 60's-early 70's in out-there maquillage and funky hairdos. Love it!
