Plus-Size Pin-Up Models: It`s hot!

Hello my Dears!


Now I wanted to share with you some photos of different plus-size pin-up models that I`ve found recently. Making this post I want to show that the beauty can be different, and even such plus-size models can look sexier than any "ordinary" model. I think that plus-size models are very brave and I respect them for the fact that they ignore the typical fashion standards. They prove that any woman can look gorgeous just being sure that she is gorgeous. Just look at them:













Don`t you think they are gorgeous? Write in the comments below!

Have a nice day!

At the "Beauty" Crossroads

Hello, my Friends!

Again, one more discussion about beauty standards, but this time I want to share with you something very important and urgent for me...

The person who insinuated me was Valeria Lukyanova, I have previously made a post about her. I really think she is attractive, but I also feel that she is absolutely unnatural, It is not that kind of beauty I admired of earlier! And I feel that her beauty is not "right", so to say, its made of her overwhole image of a very spiritual person. She is a doll, and pin-up girls are real people, she is skinny, pin-up girls are stout, she is disptoportional, pin-up girls have natural proportions! And I`m struggling with myself, trying to understand whether her beauty is the beauty standard that I was looking for or whether she is just a "demon" that is tempting me now.

What do you think about her? Here are some photos of her I`ve found recently...Tell me what do you think:












Beauty Standards: What I Think About it

Hello, my Dear Friends!

It`s been a while since I`ve posted something here. But I think it`s a high time now to come back and discuss a lot of new things with you.

As you may guess, my blog is dedicated to my favourite pin-up style, but not only. I began to study all the percularities of this style trying to understand and discover another issue that worries me: the ideal of beauty. For a long time the beauty standard for me was pin-up style. And even now I admire all the pin-up models and clothes, make-up and so on. But the thing that catches me the most in this style is its feminine nature. I think that you agree with  me that nowadays, when you can hardly tell a boy from a girl, its a very important feature.But what is "femininity", what is "beauty"? Is it express in style or a make up?

I haven`t got answers on these questions. Because, from the one hand, a particular style can define some particular features, like red lips are assotiated with sexuality, blue eyes with innocence, blond hair with femininity. But is that all? I mean, that if you dress one girl in the sexies dress you find, bleach her hair, do the best make-up ever, she will look just awful; But, at the same time, you can dress a girl in a...sack, I don`t know, and she will look gorgeous! Where is that borderline that defines what is beautiful and what is not?

Have you got an answer? Write everything you think in the comments below. I really want to see what you think about it, and whether you defined what is beauty for you.

Have a nice day!

Tattoos with pin-up girls: Oh my God, it`s hot!

Hello everyone! At last I`m here and ready to show you some more things about pin-up! Today I want to show you some tattoos with pin-up girls and tell something about them! Let`s begin!

1) Classical pin-up girls:
With the revival of the popularity and preference of the pinup girl as a tattoo design, many of the old designs are making a comeback in a big way. Many people seem to have a liking for the look of women in retro looking clothes and have gone for these tattoo designs.









Of course when it comes to detailed tattoos you have to consider the cost factor. There is no doubt that a classy looking pinup girl tattoo is going to cost you quite a bit. If your budget is tight then you can go in for a variety and go for that. This is a more cost effective alternative. But if you want your tattoo to stand out in terms of the look, detail work and colors then you have to be prepared for the cost and time to be spent on it.




2) Modern pin-up girls:
Now you can also find tattoos with pin-up girls that are a little bit modified: they are tend to be less detailed (like a cartoon character) or combined:












The most popular areas for such tattoos are: arms and legs, stomach. 

As you can see tattooing the pin-up girls is a trend now, and it`s not a big surprise: it`s cool, beautiful and attractive.

Hope you liked this post! Have a nice evening!

I think that I`m fat: remember a real pin-up girl!

Hello everyone! Today I want to talk with you about the worst fear of almost every girl: about the thought that you are fat. That is a disaster of our generation and I think that there are several causes of it, so, let`s tlk about it.



1) Glamorous magazines dictate beauty standards
Yes, that is true. We reag a lot of magazines and see here a lot of beautiful young women that are almost the same in their appearrance and it means that the type of very thin ang high woman is the standard now. But it`s bad, because any girl is unique, and not all of us are high enough, or our bone structure is different.

2) Being extremely thin is against our nature
I shoul told you one secret: any woman, by her nature, was created for giving birth to children. That is why our body is programmed to keep fat for keeping enegry. That is why to be extremely thin is against our nature. Very thin girls even can`t get pregnant because of the lack of fat.

3) Marilyn Monroe wasn`t thin at all!

the sex-symbol uf the 20 century wasn`t thin at all! But she was incredibly beautiful and she looked like a woman! Because sometimes when I look on modern models, I think that they are not real women, they are just skin and bones. And that is ugly.

4) We don`t want to love our appearance because we are scared that nobody will love us the way we are created

That is true. Just think, why do we wand to be thin, to be like a real model? Because we think that being a model will help us to be loved. That is why we are trying to be as beautiful for other people as possible. But didn`t you think that before everyone will recognize your beauty, you shoul recognize it inside you by yourself? If you would accept your appearance, everyone around you would see it too!

5) We are hooked on our drawbacks
Yes, we always think bad about ourself and notice only drawbacks. But it`s wrong! Every girl has something beautiful in her appearance! Let me tell you one personal example. Frankly speaking, I don`t like my appearance as well as many other girls. But the most annoying thing that`s making me crazy is my nose. I have really big crooked nose because I have broken it twice during my childhood. I really shy because of that, and I really hate it. But I always try to calm myself down, saying that despite my nose is crooked, I have quite pretty eyes. And it helps me to think that I`m not extremely ugly.  That is why just try to find something attractive in your appearance! 

6) A lot of girls who think that they are far are not fat at all!
That is true. Some girls continue to torture themselves with diets and exercises thinking that they are fat, but they don`t! And that happens because of the lack of self-assuarance. Just try to be in a normal condition, not too thin and not too fat (just because it creates a lot of health issues)

7) And just remember- a real pin-up gir wasn`t thin at all! She  was a real women! ;)

Hope you liked this post! Don`t forget to comment! 
Have a nice day!

Vintage fingerwave hairstyle: not that hard at all!

Hello everyone! 
Today I want to show you a very interesting hairstyle for a party or some kind of celebration. It is a fingerwave. Some people think that this style is quite hard to do, but I can assure you that its not like that and you can easily perform it at home. But I should warn you about 1 thing - this style wouldn`t fit for all girl, asp if you have wide or quite big face.
but on the whole, this style is a very good experience! All that you need is patience, clips (or bobbypins) and the gel for your hair. So, Let`s begin!

Step 1. Curling
Curl your hair. If your hair are curly, skip this step. 
Use a curling iron or haircurlers. Curls shouldn`t be super neat, so don`t worry about that. Separate your hair, take section by section and curl it. Then go through your curls with your fingers quite gently to hold the form of the curl. One piece of advice: If you want your curls last longer, I would recommend you to use simple curlers\rollers. It wouldn`t damage your hair and would last longer.

Step 2. Prepair hair for fingerwaving. 
Then slightly wet your hair. I recommend you just make your fingers wet and go through your hair. It shouldn`t be too wet, coz otherwise it will dry for a century. Then goes one trick: you can use a gel for your hair or...a sea salt. Yes, for example sea salt works great on curly hair (I checked for myself coz I have curly hair) so just spray it all over your head or use the gel. 

Step 3. Creating the fingerwaves.
Make a deep side part, brush your hair (the section you are going to make wavy) all the way forward, and to make your first curl you should pin your clips downwards. For the next row you should brush your hair all the way backwards and pin it. Quite easy thing, huh? You should repeat these movements until necessary level. 
The main trick here is to pin everything right, otherwise your curls will be uneven. If your hair begin to dry, make them wet again. 
Step 4. Last things to do.
When everything is dry, take your pins out and check if sthe shape is correct. Take the comb brush if you need ant gently brush your fingerwaves to make them more even. 
For the rest of your hair do the same thing ar just make a ponytail or just simple curls. 
So hope you liked this quick overview on how to make this hairstyle!
Have a good day!
