It’s that time of year again—sure, it’s time for shopping, caroling, and sipping (spiked) eggnog, but it’s also time for another random holiday image dump! This year’s collection celebrates the Yuletide season with some extra glamorous and seriously sexy holiday themed shots. While I’ve selected a bunch of new images to share here, you might recognize a few repeats from the 2022 holiday image post. These perennial faves are simply too good, too perfect, not to share again. Speaking of too perfect, here’s one of those repeat faves, a classic shot of Ms. Bettie Mae Page trimming the tree in nothing but a Santa hat—and some strategically placed snowflakes to slip this one past the censors.
The Greatest Christmas Picture of All Time. Photo by Bunny Yeager, from the 1954 session for Playboy’s January 1955 issue. Imagine the bewitching Elizabeth Montgomery comin’ down the chimney tonight. Elvira, Mistress of the Dark making your Christmas wishes come true. Classic pinup art by Haddon Sundblom. She has that look, like she’s about to start singing, “Santa baby, just slip a Sable under the tree for me / Been an awful good girl / Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight”Susie Diamond about to head onstage and sing some holiday standards Michelle Pfeiffer in this sparkly red dress and Santa hat is about as sexy-adorable as a human being can get. Not even the scene-stealing puppet Madame can distract from the jaw dropping hotness of Judy Landers. 1930s starlet Grace Bradley trimming the tree. Saucy Dolores decided to give Chet a sneak peak at his Christmas gift. The holidays and sexy lingerie go together like eggnog and brandy. Perfectly, in other words. Nancy Gould, for Playboy’s December 1966 issue. Gould was truly stunning and this look is so magnificently late-sixties iconic. With lyrics like “I need one hand to wrap with / Another hand to clutch it,” this hilariously suggestive, but little-known Christmas song deserves to be on your holiday playlist. Christmas, 1970: Santa’s extra jolly now that his helpers have arrived. I’m sure there’s a booze-filled story behind this candid shot and I’d love to hear it.

If Coke hadn’t gone woke, I’d tell them to ditch the polar bears and license some of Mr. Sundblom’s work.
