Something To Be Thankful For Next Year

This time of year, we like to slow things down a little and reflect.

Then it’s back to business and looking ahead to the cool and artistic.

Which brings us to models. In swimsuits. In the tropics. Yes, we’re talking about the one and only PIRELLI CALENDAR.

For those new to the ultimate pin-up calendar, think of the Pirelli Calendar as the perfect Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition shot by the world’s best photographers with a touch of European edge. (And by edge, we mean liberal attitude towards toplessness.)

This year, the good people at Pirelli commissioned hipster photographer Terry Richardson for the 2010 version of their iconic calendar. The exotic location was “It” country of the moment Brazil, and the models were all A-list (Ana Beatriz Barros, Miranda Kerr, Georgina Stojilkovic).

Of course, we could go on and on about the gorgeous models, the great use of color and light, and the scenery.

Or we could just point you the site…
