This is not a pin-up from yester-year, it's a new trend among modern women.

Some women in the Delaware Valley are leaving play dates behind and stepping into a world of glitz, glamour and a little sex appeal.
Classic pin up poses of days gone by are the images of what sexy used to look like.
But stay at home mom Rachelle Elliot is one of the women of today. She wants to look sexy, but it is not easy when your days are spent taking care of two very active boys.
"My life has revolved around the children for so many years, I never have time for myself," she said.
Elliot decided to make time to go from ordinary woman to pin-up girl and is pleased with the results.
"Completely tastefully done, a lot of fun, and who doesn't like playing dress up," she said.
Elliott is not alone. Newlywed Colleen Hafich also got glammed up.
"I'm not a size 2 model and I didn't think I could do it, but after talking to her she did say that they do do normal people like myself," she said.
Hafich went from the girl next door to the teacher the boys wish they had.
Photographer Celeste Guiliano of Lunar Light Studios said while most women are picturing a gift for their husbands, they end up with the real bonus.
"When they see themselves dressed and with the hair, it's a confidence boost because they can visualize it," she said.
But the real question is what do the husbands think?
CBS 3 was there when Rachelle's husband, Preston saw them for the first time.
To say he liked them is an understatement.
"Alright, that's it, I can't take it. Get that camera out of here," he said.
