Pinup with Rita: Christmas and Pinups!

“Christmas time is here, Happiness and cheer, Fun for all that children call, Their favorite time of the year.” To quote Charlie Brown. I’ve heard many say I would love to find a pinup under my tree this year.

I did a Christmas photo shoot with the amazing and talented Lily Soto of Perfectly Pinup. She is the photographer I have worked most with. We just clicked when we met and my very first photo shoot

with her which was beach themed – she gave me my first magazine cover. Lily and I have a great working relationship, but she is also a very close friend and I feel like when we work together, it’s like magic.

I have decided for this month’s column to write a little less and included photos from my entire Christmas photo shoot with Lily. And I realize not everyone celebrates Christmas and that is perfectly fine.

On another note, some of my favorite Christmas movies are Miracle on 34^th Street (1947 and in black and white of course) White Christmas (1954) and the Alistair Sim version of A Christmas Carol (1951).

I also love all the glitter and sequins that show up around Christmas. And of course, if you get invited to parties or events such fun to get all dressed up!
