This perfume from Apothica is so dreamy...

And we love this amazing lotion, also from Apothica (bonus, it's vegan!)



We adore Pinup Posies and love these cute little purple set! (bonus, a portion of her proceeds goes to Pinups for Pitbulls!)



Of course, we think a sexy photo shoot is the perfect gift for any lady!

Happy Friday the 13th!!  Today we are getting inspiration from the famous pinup artist Gil Elvgren.  Elvgren was an illustrator who worked from the 1930s to the 1970s.  He did commercial work for companies like Coca-Cola and General Electric, as well as his better known pinup girls for Brown and Bigelow.  One thing we love about Elvgren girls are that they are the sexy and fun girls next door.  Check out some of our favorites...

More and more the pinup style is influencing mainstream fashion.  Celebrities make it look easy, but in reality, pinup takes work and isn't something that can just be thrown together.  It takes attention to detail and knowledge of the styles, makeup and hair of the era.  Of course, we think the work is worth it!  It can be so much fun and can really set a girl apart from the crowd.
We love seeing stars and designers who embrace pinup and do a fabulous job!  

The gorgeous Dita Von Teese is of course the first to come to mind.  Talk about attention to detail!  This girl is always flawless.



Scarlett Johansson also does the pinup look well, especially in this ad campaign for Dolce & Gabbana.

Katy Perry puts her own fun spin on the pinup look.



Here is Karlie Kloss channeling 40's pinup for Dior's spring 2011 line.  Fabulous!



Gwen Stefani is another celebrity who puts her own spin on the classic pinup look.  Her hair is always amazing and she is rarely without her signature red lips.



Of course we have to mention Mad Men.  Costumes for the show are always spot on and fabulous.



We LOVE these images from Vanity Fair of some of our favorite stars as pinups!
