I've always loved the esthetics of Domme, filmmaker, photographer and general hot cookie Julie Simone, who has made some seriously hot movies with that were way dirtier than this very sexy semi-softcore pinup set of sizzling readhead Nora Marlo. I've never seen Nora before and she's irresistible -- with a perky little pouty kissable red mouth and legs that stretch all the way to Heaven. Nora's vintage stockings and garters, yummy high heels and a leopard-print bra are cute as hell. It's classic retro pinup Bettie Page style eroticism with gorgeously diffuse lighting. That's entertainment.

From what I've seen, AltPorn sites didn't really go crazy with the Lucky Irish themed holiday sets this year, but this one cute set from inked up cutie AdrianLouise caught my eye on Dangerous Dolls. It's playful and explicit and the holiday swag she's wearing is humorous enough to overcome the cheese factor of holiday porn. Plus, reading AdrianLouise's prolific textual tattoos is like doing a sexy version of one of those old Choose your own Adventure stories. See if you can find to pot'o gold at the end of the rainbow.

The second issue of Burning Angel's magazine has just been released. From what I saw in the first issue, it will feature lots of hot layouts from the Burning Angel site and a few interesting stories and interviews. This project is done in partnership with the people over at Magna Publishing, who are also responsible for Club, Velvet, Genesis, Gent, and others, and although the production is slick and professional, I wish the Burning Angel magazine had a little more of a homegrown 'zine feel. It has hot layouts, which you can see more of on the site, but it still really feels like some Jersey porn mag publishers got their hands on some 'wild' tattoo broad content. If I had no internet and no DVD player, this would be good to have around, but you really can't say "This isn't your Dad's porn" when it's being put out by the people who do Swank. Still, if you want to stock your bomb shelter with your favorite Burning Angel girls so you won't miss them when the power grid fails us, this is your ticket.

In the rough and tumble spirit of Saturday afternoon Grindhouse sexploitation cinema, Carlos Batts is gearing up to release a bad ass looking romp called Sugar Sisters. This feature showcases lots of cool stars you know from altporn and adult, like April Flores, Kelly Shibari, Kimberly Kane, Syd Blachovich, Sunny Lane, Nina Hartley, Ashley Blue, and Nikki Hunter, but it breaks out of the standard adult video confines with much more violence and mayhem. I'm really looking forward to seeing this new venture from Carlos Batts. I've always thought a lot of these women could do stronger stories on screen and this looks like a lot of fun.

Gothic porn star Jade Starr has been quietly continuing to add really hot stuff to her own solo site JadeStarr.com. I always love seeing new stuff she's doing. I love her lean ghostly pale body and that classic Goth girl hair. Plus, she shoots some very hot stuff, like this series of Mika Tan fucking her hot body with a purple strap-on. I also always love what Jade Starr looks like in sexy garters and stockings! Like many independent solo girl sites, it's not the smoothest design and navigation, but more than makes up for it with very sexy videos and photo sets and other fun features.

This hot new set of wicked gothic pin-up Szandora just went up on Blue Blood. She looks really sexy in her little black jeweled Gothic cocktail dress and even hotter once she starts showing off her see through sheer panties and fishnets. Szandora displays her contortion skills, putting her ankles behind her head and the effect looks extra hot as you can see her perfectly shaved pussy through her hot panties. I'm really into her vertical nipple piercings too. This is her 79th set on Blue Blood and I still enjoy seeing hot new sets of her.

I really like the intimate adventurous feel of this self shot series from cute little Cassie that is up now on IShotMyself. These images really do feel like naughty private pics she shot to send to her lover and that emotional thrill comes through in the set. I love Cassie's big sparkling eyes and the effect using just the room lamp as lighting gives this series. She goes pretty wild with it too. There is definitely some hot stuff to check out here in this new self shot series from IShotMyself.

Joanna Angel recently posted a sexy fun series shot on the kitchen floor of her old Brooklyn apartment. Kelly Lind did a nice job playing with shallow depth of field and playing with color. It gives the set an interesting artistic quality that is enjoyable to look at. Also, Joanna looks great in her bright lingerie and cozy looking neon pink tube socks. You can tell they had a lot of fun and I like pictures of her where she genuinely smiles much more than I like some of the sad puppy submissive faces she sometimes makes. This series also ends up being a beautiful study of Joanna's pale ass, with lots of sexy close-ups and even some dirty wet finger exploration of her hot asshole. This is a nicely shot, colorful, fun, and hot new set. Check out the whole thing on Burning Angel.
