Miss Ruby Red is a fierce, fiery beauty who has a passion for getting her passport stamped and all things adventurous. In her world travels, she has swum with sharks in the Caribbean, hopped with kangaroos in Australia, herded sheep in Ireland, cuddled rabbits on their own island in Japan, and battled psychotic pigeons in Italy. She is a no-nonsense intellect by day and a glamour starlet by night. She has the body type of Marilyn Monroe, the style of Rita Hayworth and the drive of Lucille Ball. Don’t let her opulent style fool you; she is a quick-witted conversationalist of exceptional intelligence. She is known for her tall, voluptuous, ever fun-to-handle, curvy figure and her never-ending quest for knowledge.
Her friends would tell you she’s a brainiac who excites easily and loves to energetically discuss almost anything…clothes, red lipstick, football, and home renovation are a few of her favorite topics. She loves cars with sexy rear ends with her favorite being a candy apple red 1957 Chevy Bel Air. Her style and grace come from her Mama who was an original 1950s pin-up starlet. Most importantly, coffee is her life force and hot Krispy Kreme doughnuts make her downright giddy.
Miss Ruby Red is the President of the North Florida Chapter of the International Pinup Group, The Luscious Ladies. The North Florida Luscious Ladies is one of the largest LL chapters who are an entrepreneurial crew of ladies who integrate a vintage lifestyle within our home and careers. She enjoys volunteering in her community with her pin-up sisters to spread awareness and joy of those who appreciate vintage lifestyles.

Hi! My friends call me Miss Pink Tink. My nickname comes from the color and singer Pink and my Disney hero Tinkerbell. I like to live life to the fullest no matter how modified... Just keep swimming! I feel my music and play with passion. I have cold hands but a warm heart and I love hard. I love to travel to see new places and recently traveled through the Prarie lands. I enjoy supporting local music, racing go-karts, boxing, martial arts, the beach, car shows and the Pontiac Firebird is my favorite. I'm short and sassy and a little smart assey but most of all I just love being me and enjoying my new pin-up adventure. I have met some beautiful ladies that have supported and have embraced me and all of my curves.. after recently losing 158 pounds and now I look forward to going shopping! BRING ON THE LIPSTICKS AND LASHES! I am looking forward to meeting more of you Ladies and Gents. Squishy hugs, Miss Pink Tink 💗
I am a lifelong lover of the vintage style. As long as I can remember I've always loved the elegance and glamor of retro and vintage clothing. As a child I remember playing with my grandmother's aprons and getting dressed up in her beautiful dresses. Even today her style continues to inspire me. To me, the style just comes naturally and is now a part of my daily routine. It is who I am.
In my spare time I often enjoy baking. Whenever I'm creating cute and tasty treats I'm taken back to my time spent baking with my family. As a mother of two, the happy and joyful moments spent mixing up an old family recipe are countless.
I also love to let my creativity flow. Whether its through my drawing or creating handmade crafts, I often find myself with many projects on hand. From hair accessories to cigar purses there's always something new I'm creating.
My style can often be described as a mix of both cute and creepy. My love of all things gothic and horror can sometimes mix and blend into my style. Around Halloween I love to get creative with my decorations and costume, finding the best mix of elegance and horror I can come up with.
