1st Day Of Spring

As it is already known i live in Xanthi.

Xanthi is a town in Thrace,Greece.

Xanthi is a town well know for the rainy days and the cold winter nights.

Xanthi is a town that for almost 7 months no sun,shines.

Yes people Xanthi is a parallel universe,Xanthi is somthing like Mordor...(if you own a boat you can live here!)

But today something changed!The sun shined so i grabbed the opportunity and went for a walk by the sea!

May we all enjoy the upcoming spring days!

The Pin Up Story

It was in the mid 1930’s when the  Pin up began to develop, after a long period of hardship,  women were looking for new ways to dress,that lead to the creation of Pencil dresses, Pin-curls and the typical red lips ,the symbol of pin up look.The key personality behind this evolution of style was Gil Elvgren, who during his life-time produced over 500 paintings of Pin-up Dolls, which were turned into calendars, swap cards ,posters,and the ideal Pin-up Doll.

It was through Elvgren’s creations the real life Pin up dolls began to develop, it was not only a style for these women but it quickly became a way of life. Elvgren's body of work inspired many women at 40's and continues to do so to this day.

A very first iconic Pin-up model Betty Grable came to fame by the time 2nd world war was over.  Betty's most famous photo shoot was in 1943 in which her back is turned toward the camera and she is peeking over her shoulder - because at the time she was actually six months pregnant. However, it was due to her long legs, curves and Pin-up beauty that her posters were hung up continuously by soldiers.The amazingly beautiful and daring Bettie Page is a key person that cannot be left out of any Pinup article which relates to its development,often referred to as “The Queen of Pin-up”.

Enjoy ppl!

In Icons We Trust-Bettie Page

Bettie Mae Page,born on April 22 ,1923,was an American model who gained a significant profile in the 1950s for her pin-up photos.Often referred to as the "Queen of Pinups", her jet black hair, blue eyes, and trademark bangs have influenced artists for generations.

A native of Nashville, Tennessee, Page lived in California in her early adult years before moving to New York City to pursue work as an actress. There, she began to find work as a pin-up model, and posed for dozens of photographers throughout the 1950s. Page was "Miss January 1955", one of the earliest Playmates of the Month for Playboy magazine. "I think that she was a remarkable lady, an iconic figure in pop culture who influenced sexuality, taste in fashion, someone who had a tremendous impact on our society," said Playboy founder Hugh Hefner to the Associated Press in 2008.

In 1959, Page converted to evangelical Christianity and worked for Billy Graham,studying at Bible colleges in Los Angeles and Portland, Oregon, with the intent of becoming a missionary. The latter part of Page's life was marked by depression, violent mood swings, and several years in a state psychiatric hospital suffering from paranoid schizophrenia. After years of obscurity, she experienced a resurgence of popularity in the 1980s.
