One-Piece Wednesday: Irina Shayk & Samantha Hoopes


This is pretty cute.


I have to admit, when I first saw these Linda Farrow ads with Irina, my first (and I guess only) thought was, “What I wouldn’t give to see Irina in these amazing shiny one-piecers on her own!”


Thanks, Rebecca.

Here’s another non-SI one-piece. Samantha Hoopes in Maxim earlier this year.

Topless Tuesday: Anne V & Carolyn Murphy, 2005

Same suit, different babe. Rookie Anne and sophomore/cover girl Carolyn both sported this cute one-shoulder one-piece.
Technically, each model is only half topless. But there are two of them, so do the math.

Happy Hadid-Days


Today’s Advent video consists of rather mesmerizing backwards, slo-mo footage of Gigi Hadid’s hair swirling around her adorable face and body.


I have to say, there has been little to no Christmas imagery in this year's videos.


But, I guess you can't have everything.

Happy First Day of Winter

This shot of Bridget Hall seemed like a good way to welcome the season.

Also, it seemed like a good jumping-off point to a theme.

UPDATE 9/21/19

Just randomly inspired to add Kate Bock (2017) to this collection.

An Abundance of Ashleys


Swim Daily has been hitting us with a LOT of Anastasia Ashley this month.


From the lead story in this news roundup to a Twitter takeover to an Instragram takeover to an odd little comedy short to some outtake footage.


If she were a full-fledged model, I wouldn’t have blinked. But Anastasia is a guest athlete.


Granted, she’s one of the most model-looking athletes the swimsuit issue has ever featured.


But she’s got a seperate category, which she shares with Skylar Diggins and Alex Morgan. Even SI clearly doesn’t consider her a Gigi/Sara/Lily/etc.


They must be planning something with her in 2015.

One-Piece Wednesday: Juile Henderson for Talbots

Miss Henderson in Talbots swimsuits from some time ago.
Miss ya, Julie. Where've you been hiding yourself?

Have Yourself Emrata Little Christmas

Don’t watch Emily Ratajkowski’s LOVE Magazine video if you are prone to seizures.
She looks hot and sports a couple great outfits, but the editing is just brutal.
Could have been much better, in my opinion.
