Random Image Dump #14

Earlier this year we lost the beautiful Jane Birkin. In this photo, she’s positively radiant. More recently, we lost the talented, sexy, and lovable comedic actor and businesswoman extraordinaire, Suzanne Somers. Absolutely killer movie poster art by Bruce Timm for Dracula A.D. 1972. Timm (Batman: The Animated Series and Mad Love) expertly captures the feel … Continue reading Random Image Dump #14 →

Random Image Dump #13

More randomness for your viewing pleasure. For this lucky 13th post in the series, I’ve selected 13 black and white photos. Black and white always conveys a certain vintage appeal, while also feeling utterly timeless. Susanna Hoffs: Huge crush. I repeat: HUGE. Writer Alan Moore and artist Bill Sienkiewicz: comic book royalty. Maria always got … Continue reading Random Image Dump #13 →

Random Image Dump #12: The Sweater Girl

For this Random Image Dump, a brief history lesson might be in order. This post is all about a sexy (and maybe sexist?) 1940s–1950s fashion trend that originated in Hollywood: that’s right, it’s The Sweater Girl craze. As we round the corner into autumn next month, it seems like a good time to reflect on … Continue reading Random Image Dump #12: The Sweater Girl →

Random Image Dump # 11: Gillian Anderson’s Wildest ‘90s Photoshoots Edition

Anderson’s always been a photographer’s dream, not only thanks to her striking beauty but also her playful attitude towards the camera. Like in this … Continue reading Random Image Dump # 11: Gillian Anderson’s Wildest ‘90s Photoshoots Edition →

This post is positively sizzling hot and worthy of being the tenth in a series that allows me to look at pretty pictures and (mostly) take a break from writing! In that spirit, and without further … Continue reading Random Image Dump #10 →

Random Image Dump #9: Bella Donna Edition

It’s time for another not-so-random Random Image Dump, and I guess my Italian heritage is shining through today. Not only that, but June 2 was Festa della Reppublica, the annual commemoration of post-fascism, universal suffrage Italy, since 1946. Appropriately then, this outing is all about celebrating something else uniquely Italian: famous Italian bella donnas. Here’s … Continue reading Random Image Dump #9: Bella Donna Edition →

Random Image Dump #8: Showgirls-Era Elizabeth Berkley Edition

We’re big fans of Nomi Malone here at the Starfire Lounge. Sure, she tore through the place like a demonic hurricane from hell when she stripped, er, danced here, but that display of raw power only made us fall a little more in love with her. Nomi is a Starfire Lounge Hall of Famer, for … Continue reading Random Image Dump #8: Showgirls-Era Elizabeth Berkley Edition →
