Happy International Nude Day!

It's that time again when the denizens of Shades of Gray show off what God gave them! (Well, at least as much as we can get away with before the Morality Police come down on us!)

 

 

Finally, Mel showed up late for National Hat Day, but we improvised and worked her appearance in here!

How Hot Is It? (Ballerina Edition)

It's so hot that Katie Boren can only sit in the shade while she tries to get up the energy to dance into the stream...

... Sally is unable to move from this shady bench...

... Alexis might be melting...

... and the result of Juliet's lunch of baked beans and cabbage is colder than the air around her!

Musical Monday with Wheeler Walker, Jr.

Let's kick off the work with a song that should be the anthem of that vast cross-over that exists in the Shades of Gray audience that love both country music and pot!

BEACHED - By Peter van Straaten

 Beginning a new cartoon series--that will appear here every Sunday throughout the summer! Art is by the legendary cartoonist Peter van Straaten and the jokes will either be translated from Dutch or be written by Steve Miller!

Happy International Bikini Day!

 Today, we celebrate the women who put on itsy-bitsy bikinis! (As well as those with a little more fabric!)

It's a Fanny Friday

Happy Fourth of July!

We hope American is having as great an Independence Day as we're having here at Shades of Gray! There might not be as many photos in this post as there have been in some previous years, but there's more to see in each one!

Here's Susan Hayward and Virginia Lee, making sure everyone knows what day it is!

And we have Marceline Day, Anita Page, and Gwen Lee re-creating a famous painting celebrating the War for Independence in their own unique way!

Meanwhile, David Bowie may be standing alone, but he's an Englishman lifting his glass to Old Glory!

But there's perhaps nothing as grand as Joan Marsh transforming herself into a living avatar of the Fourth of July--Sparky Boom-Boom!

On a serious note...

 Before we bring your our traditional post of patriotic girlie pics on Independence Day in the U.S., we bring you a PSA that originally appeared in a 1948 issue of Action Comics. Please take its message to heart; we want visitors to Shades of Gray to be able to visit us on July 5 and beyond! (Click on the image to see a larger, more readable version.)

International Bikini Day Warm-Up

This coming Friday is International Bikini Day. Today, Brigitte Bardot is here to get visitors in the right frame of mind, sporting different bikinis during her younger days in the 1950s and 1960s.
 

 

In that picture right above, Bardot is modeling one of the most famous bikinis in the world. It's the same design that a woman was ticketed for wearing on an Italian beach in 1957.

Come back on Friday and you'll find a celebration of bikinis and the beauties who are wearing them!
