12 Days of Pinup Christmas Part 2: Pigtails and Pirates, Hell Bunny, Heart of Haute + More!

Yasmina Greco Pinup Christmas Part 2

I can’t believe how quickly December is flying by!! When I first set out to do a ’12 Days of Pinup Christmas’ theme, truth be told, I wasn’t quite sure what I would be sharing for 12 days with you all but, turns out my hubby Gary and I did a pretty good  job at planning out the photo shoots and I can’t believe how many pretty holiday outfits I’ve received to share with you all in my posts. We were able to find a fabulous 1950s Philco Predicta TV that works and is now part of our living room!! Also, our tabletop vintage aluminum Christmas tree is never too far this time of year as we love vintage Christmas and these elements add so much mid-century modern charm.  Here are the latest pics from my 12 days theme featuring lovely outfits from Pigtails and Pirates, Heart of Haute, Hell Bunny and The Oblong Box Shop . You can see more and keep up with me on Instagram and Facebook

50s Jewelry:
Each girl needs her jewelry. No outfit is complete without a necklace, brooch or bangles. Bakelite is numero uno but, it is very collectible and pricey, if you can find a Bakelite cherry brooch or the magnificent necklace then scoop it up. But, anything by Luxulite or Erstwilder will be special and bring delight to your doll. Luxulite is run by designer Katy in the UK and she releases amazing styles regularly and has some special creations for the holidays. Erstwilder is located in Australia and they have limited quantities so be sure to purchase their items when you find them as they will be sold out; they also have great international shipping… about 1 week from Australia to USA.

Only 1 sleep to go and Santa will be here!! I want to wish all my followers and blog readers a very Merry Christmas filled with laughter and cheer, and of course some sugar and spice too!! I’m sharing a pic of our tree this year that we brought home right after Thanksgiving…. I love it so much, it is tinsel/aluminum, I told hubby I want to leave it up way past Christmas 🙂 Also sharing my favorite Christmas pinup pics with you, I am in-love with how beautifully these turned out, so ‘old-fashioned and classic from the 50s) just like I pictured when I was styling the photoshoot and paying attention to all the little details like the dress, the vintage hair pin and vintage Christmas corsage, the vintage mid-century modern wrapping paper on the presents and the custom wreath with vintage holiday details. Merry Christmas everyone!!
