You will know of course, that I always do things modestly … modest gifts, modest tree … even back in 1985 (below).
Sending you all Christmas Kisses and Best Wishes for a Healthy, Happy, Peaceful … and Fun … Festive Season!!!

I’m often told I look quite “sinful” when I … even quite innocently … stand with hands-on-hips. But finding this in my #polaroidspast archives from 2003, I obviously hadn’t quite mastered my Mistress Modesty look just yet.
For more Sinful Stances this weekend simply smack the Sinful lips below!!!

It’s been a week of showers here in London, reminding me of how many showers I’ve shared here at Sinful Sunday over the years. Including my first #polaroidspast posting here back in September 2014.
So I thought I would add another Shower Polaroid … from 1985 above … to my Sinful Showers collection here.
Along with another much more recent shower … as you can probably tell …
from September 2020.
For lots more cleansing thoughts this Sinful Sunday,
just rub the lovely lips below!

Looking back … to 1986 in this case … always reminds me of just how far we’ve travelled and how much has changed.
Yet the important, simple, personal things … that should really, really matter … haven’t changed at all.
Looking back should always remind one of the important things to cherish when looking forward.
For many more important personal thoughts to cherish,
kiss the lovely lips below!

It’s usually lots of fun trying to recreate poses from our #polaroidspast archives
. . . particularly from our lovely Grecian holiday adventures!
But whilst our attempt this morning did bring back wonderful memories . . .
it has also left me yearning even more for simpler times . . . just like 1982.
For more simple, happy, thoughts this weekend, kiss the lovely lips below!

I’ve never been very good at numbers, and as some of you may have noticed,
I got my numbering wrong again for last Wednesday’s Wicked posting.
It wasn’t the 400th edition of Marie’s Wicked Wednesday then at all,
it was the 399th!!!
But I’m sure I have done my adding-up correctly now, which means it really is the 400th edition this week.
Now 400 editions is a massive landmark in any genre, but in the context of the Sex Blogging Community it is even more so. And Marie’s website will always hold a very special place in my heart, as her’s was one of the very first websites I discovered when I began my own tentative steps into publishing myself here at Modesty Ablaze Dot Com, and she has remained a constant source of inspiration ever since.
And, it was a Wicked Wednesday post about Polaroids, in August of 2014, that reminded me of all of my “private” Polaroid Photo Albums hidden-away on the top shelf of our bedroom wardrobe . . . which prompted me to begin my “Polaroids Past” series.
It was of course a great honour to have Marie subsequently add two of her own lovely photos (see below) to my “Polaroids Past” slide-show collection.
So it is always a great joy to visit Wicked Wednesday every week . . . and
I certainly hope to keep doing so for another 400 editions, and more!!!
And I urge you to do the same by pushing the Wicked Wednesday

So . . . no, I haven’t forgotten to include a photo this Wicked Wednesday . . . I’m going completely naked today, because this week’s theme is “Skin”.
Normally, my posts here, are all about making light of things. Trying not to
take anything too seriously, trying to bring some fun out of normal, everyday . . . or even not so everyday . . . situations.
But I hope that people can sometimes, even if only occasionally, pick-up on the more serious side to my postings here too.
Which is . . . that I really do feel we should all try to be more accepting, and more comfortable, in our own skin.
I know that is easier said than done. We all have self-doubts and bouts of low self-esteem, particularly when it comes to our body shape and size.
We all worry about the lines and sags, the wrinkles and the spreads. And we are all still . . . it seems to me . . . constantly reminded by mainstream media that the young, slim and beautiful, are bound to have more fun and be more successful in their lives and relationships.
And for many years I know I felt those pressures and worries as well. It seems ingrained within us, part of our upbringing, part of who we should aspire to be,
rather than who we actually are.
Now there are many others who have written . . . and are still writing . . . far more eloquently than I could on challenging those mainstream views.
But as the years have passed . . . and through enjoying and sharing lovely experiences with so many wonderful people that I’ve been fortunate enough to meet . . . it’s become ever easier to shrug-off those worries and self-doubts.
To have the freedom to live, and enjoy life, as I really want to.
And, by doing so, I always hope that those around me can feel and enjoy and share that freedom too.
So . . . through all the postings, and pictures, the exhibitionism and making fun of myself and my situations here . . . I always hope that this tiny, tiny part of the internet exudes huge, huge waves of body-positivity and learning to be confident in one’s own skin !!!

Thirty-seven years ago Hubby and I embarked on our very first holiday together
. . . island hopping in Greece. With sunglasses, sun tan lotion, a shared backpack . . . and very little-else.
This was, of course, long before emails and mobile phones . . . (but obviously not Polaroid cameras as Hubby insisted on taking his !!!)
That holiday marked a lasting love-affair with the Mediterranean which continued every summer after that first adventure, searching yet more lovely islands to enjoy.
Then, seven years ago, we found an island which we loved so much, we decided to return the following summer . . . and we’ve returned every summer since!
With each passing year we wonder if we will get bored, and decide not to return. But in fact it actually seems to get harder and harder to leave each time we stroll along that beach . . . “our beach” . . . and sink our toes into the sand and feel that sun on our backs (and our fronts!!!)
So, if an island get-away, could be called “A Retreat”, then this island is certainly ours!!!

We all have dreams . . . dreams and fantasies . . . and you probably won’t be surprised to hear that, for as long as I can remember, mine have usually been of the erotic, or sexual, variety.
And I’ve been very lucky over the past three decades, to have been able to indulge in, and live-out, many of those fantasies in real life.
They haven’t all been as wildly successful or fulfilling as in my dreams of course
. . . but many of them have!
And certainly one of my earliest fantasies from my early teens, after reading magazine articles and gazing at steamy photos of glamorous and sexy starlets of stage and screen . . . or perhaps of a wilful “model” exposed after some scandalous liaison or “ménage à trois” . . . was that I dreamt of having photos
of my own. Just like that.
Scandalous, erotic, naughty . . . and unashamedly . . . sexy !!!
Well, life has a way of offering opportunities to explore one’s fantasies doesn’t it! And, as my modesty slowly smouldered and, gradually, blazed and . . . eventually . . . exploded into my pages here, suddenly I found myself in a situation where I was able to indulge in my “photo-shoot” fantasy from all those years ago.
It was at Eroticon 2013 . . . my first visit . . . “Oh look”, I said to Hubby “there’s a session on ‘Erotic Photography’ by a John Tisbury. I know your Polaroids are fun, but . . .”
We’d not heard of John before, but from the moment his first photo appeared on the screen behind him, I was transfixed. I wanted to ask him more as his session ended . . . but lost my nerve.
But later in the day, during one of the mid-session breaks, I noticed John pouring himself a coffee . . . so dragging Hubby across the room with me, I strode over to introduce myself . . . and ask if he did private commissions.
Taking Hubby (and myself) totally by surprise, I said to John “I’d like to book a session please . . . Hubby will treat me for my birthday. It’s a special one . . . no, not my 30th.”
So, some weeks later, we spent an absolutely lovely afternoon in John’s wonderful studio, fulfilling yet another of my fantasies! And I enjoyed every minute of it, and every single photo from the session. He really is the loveliest man, and most wonderful photographer one could ever wish to meet.
I felt instantly at ease in his company and absolutely thrilled with the results . . . and if any of you have ever had similar fantasies of indulging in an erotic photo-shoot of your own, I would suggest you visit John’s website and book a session. Right now . . . and I’m sure you will never regret it.
It should be obvious, of course, that the photos above . . . and my Slideshow are from John’s session that day!!!
