Irina Shayk – Red Hot & Leggy Beauty
February 24, 2011 in Hot Models, Irina Shayk by Versus

Russian model and Swimsuit Covergirl Irina Shayk took a stroll in high heels, a short red skirt and a leather jacket the other day, looking slim, leggy and fit while doing so.

She has a gorgeous body! Love those legs!
The face.. iono.. like its pretty.. but not my favourite! Butterface.
Gorgeous body though.
I agree about the butterface. I never really got her appeal. I dunno what it is, and i’m not gonna argue that she isn’t pretty, i just haven’t fallen for her beauty as i have with so many other models.
But her body is smokin hot, and i would kill for legs like these
She says that she never shaves her legs….
So I guess the guy she is dating likes furry legs.
ha ha!! I love it! a swimsuit model with hairy legs
tho she is lucky she gets away with it. all the women in my family are so fair they can do the same, except for me
Oh damn! If I had known she was going to be wearing the same outfit, I would have changed before my quick run to the grocery store. =/ she has a great body, but I’m struggling with the idea that one would think this outfit is fit for daytime.
She’s not just walking around; she’s leaving the set of The Chelsea Handler Show.

Err her legs aren’t shaved :-S
Yes!!! Thank you, I saw that too and I was wondering if anybody else did!
It’s strange to see a model with unshaven legs, I agree! The hair is very light and fine – practically invisible if not backlit like it is here. How is that possible? Is she naturally very blonde? I wish I could get away with not shaving – but it would be very noticeable, unfortunately!
I have blonde leg hair too but am naturally a dark brunette! Don’t know how I got lucky, but it’s definitely helpful for lazy mornings!
I’m brunette but the hairs on my arms get blond in summer or when I got to the beach, from the sun. The rest of the year I just bleach them… She might of bleached her legs.
it’s kinda cool she didn’t shave! I wouldn’t if I had her body and fine blonde leg hairs
Agree! There’s something really endearing about it.
so what? it’s funny to me that after the long discussion on the Gwyneth Paltrow post about what is expected of women that people would react that way to a woman who doesn’t shave her legs. Men don’t shave their legs, why should we?
I personally haven’t shaved my legs in over a year, and every time my husband brings it up it adds more fuel to my fire
and by the way, i feel the same way about wearing makeup.
I agree with this to some extent. I don’t think women should be expected to shave their legs (even though I do), but at the same time, dressing like this and appearing in SI is not exactly making a feminist statement. I’m guessing she just has very fine hair that can’t be seen much by the naked eye and was picked up by the high resolution camera.
that’s true, she doesn’t really strike me as a feminist icon
But still, she may have been feeling lazy and didn’t feel like shaving her legs that morning, and personally I don’t blame her and I wish people wouldn’t comment on it either…because no one comments when a men has some facial hair coming.
Yeah, but for me personally, shaving your legs correlates with hygiene. It isn’t really an aesthetic issue. It’s the same with removing armpit hair and hair from “other” parts of your body, if you know what I mean
your name sounds muslim and so does your reason for shaving your legs.
i have middle eastern friends and they have thick leg hair so there is no other option than to shave and they say its part of their religion
Yes, I’m a Muslim indeed. Although our religion teaches that hygiene is very important (including removing the hair from your armpits and public area) it’s more of a personal preference why I want to remove my body hair. I feel much “cleaner” after an epilation. But yeah, you are right that the religion plays a role in this because I do what all members of my family do and this is refering to our faith.
that’s really interesting, because I have never thought of the connection between hygeine and shaving…I guess religious teachings are often so deeply ingrained we don’t even recognize them.
totally me too!
I am Latin and I also see a correlation between hair removal and hygiene hehe!
I dunno why, I just feel cleaner!
I sometimes go a long time without bothering to shave my legs, but it depends, my leg hair isn’t pale like hers its noticable so if I’m wearing a skirt, bikini etc, then I have to have shaved. But when it comes to boyfriends, no i dont give a damn if they have to put up with my unshaven legs, shaving is a hassle and my skin appreciates a break from it now and then!
I’m so confused by your comment..your views expressed are quintessentially feminist but you mention you have a husband? I was under the impression that someone with such strong feminist views wouldn’t wed? Sorry if that question sounds uneducated on the topic and naive but I’ve never really learned about feminism in much detail and am curious.
I’ve always thought feminists weren’t manhating, they just stood for womens’ rights. At least that was my impression. They want equal footing with men, not to dominate men.
mel, you are absolutely right. I am a feminist to the extent that I believe that men and women are equals, not because I believe women are in some way superior.
As for my being married, let me be candid, I never had any intention on marrying my partner, but due to some medical complications I needed his health insurance coverage. Don’t get me wrong, I love him, but the idea of marriage kind of turned me off for some reason. and by the way, out marriage is equitable in every way. Even though this is a silly example, everytime he tells me shave my legs I tell him I’ll do it as soon as he starts shaving his
By the way, I’m glad you brought this up, because I think a lot of people think of feminists as manhating, but the truth is that many of the original leaders of the movement were happily married. We all need love in our lives
There are different kind of feminists, and while some are against men, I don’t think it’s a majority. Many are happily married. Feminists fight for equal rights and freedom of women across the globe, they fight for human rights.
Deanna, I’m glad you asked too, it seems to be kind of unpopular these days to be a feminist, but I think all women should be feminists. Some of us live such comfortable lives that we forget how many women have no rights and are sexually enslaved and tortured day after day. I heard of Somaly Mam a few days ago, I think she’s a good example of a feminist heroine, she’s had a terrible life but she’s saved thousands of women from slavery.
Feminism = manhating was never true; it was a myth invented by the patriarchal establishment and media to scare people away from a movement that would undercut the establishment’s source of power. Feminism is about ending gender oppression of all sorts, including gender stereotypes that men are forced into, and allowing people to be who they are and not what society has deemed to be the correct gender performance.
if u have naturally thin hair or blonde hair u shouldnt shave your legs becuase itll grow back darker and youll spend so much money shaving it, i shaved my stomach one time when i was 12, it grew back so dark, i regret touching it i spent so much money on waxing now
thats not true. you must be an exception
I read that some non-American cultures prefer bleaching hair to shaving/waxing. Since her hair looks so fine and light, maybe that’s the case? (I seriously doubt she’s a natural blonde.)
she’s so beautiful… amazing body!!! love the outfit…
I don’t really get why she didn’t shave her legs for an appearance in a miniskirt, but ah well. She looks amazing, I LOVE her figure.
I think i’d feel like a prostitute in that outfit, but she looks great. My fav SI model.
Perfect legs. Boring Kim K type outfit.
It does look like something Kim K would wear;) It looks way better on Irina though.
Amazing body + beautiful face = gorgeous
so gorgeous, i just love her body!
She looks gorgeous but her clothes… way too trashy and tacky
I envy her hair SO much!
beautiful..but why didn’t she shave her legs?!
i think she looks fake. typical russian ideal of beauty. and we all know her lips and boobs are fake..
I know about the boobs, but relly whtat about the lips??? Is there any pic of her with small lips or something???
no, i think they are real too.. i saw a picture of her when she was younger and her lips were the same.. it is just how she is..
by the way i like the outfit, her body, her hair.. and her face is pretty!
how do you know her boobs are fake? i couldn’t find proof of that anywhere… not disagreeing i just wonder if she has admitted it, etc?
i don’t think her boobs are fake.

I don’t know, that magazine photoshopped that picture so you could see her nipple. I think so, that is what I read in a number of places. So, if they photoshopped he so you could see her nipple, they may have also photoshopped an extra size on.
she’s a gorgeous girl, WOW! i wish i was russian or sweedish, they have amazing body types and faces.
She does nothing for me. Too trampy.
great legs! face… not so much
her face looks old…i dont know how old she is, but she could easily pass for late 30s (and i’m guessing she is in her 20s).
good for her for sporting a curvy figure. id guess 5’7 130ish.
No, more like 5ft10 and 120lb.
Her body shape is curvy but she’s probably far from ‘average’ weight for the height.
Carrie, I think she’s more toned than curvy, but either wa she has a nice bod
Hmm, I’m 5 foot 8 and vary between 125-130 and I look nowhere near as skinny (plus the camera adds pounds!). I’m guessing she’s 115 tops, but she could of course weigh more because of muscle.
aw. i like the outfit .
it reminds me of
http://fashioncircus.blogspot.com/2009/10/blog-post.html
but i guess some people are right that it seems for night time. cute still though.
i prefer a bit more meatier legs but i guess shes pretty thin so its proportional to her body. she looks very happy and healthy
Such great Legs!
A-MAZING! Love Irina and she looks awesome here!
i think she’s so beautiful! the leg hair is a bit weird for a model though… but maybe she is just growing them to be able to get a wax.
Doesn’t she shave her legs?
terrible!
Her legs are great, but anyone else notice she has NO hips? I mean, I thought I was hipless, but she is straight up and down with the narrowest pelvis I’ve seen..that shot of her in the black dress a few weeks ago is really shocking- I always thought she was curvy lol.
Erm… if that is your idea of no hips, I wonder what your perception of a person WITH hips looks like? No offence but in the last picture especially you can clearly see (or at least I can) that she has hips.
Agreed.she may not have Kim k hips but she definitely isn’t straight up and down like someone like Nicki Hilton.
ehm, exactly!
Are you looking at the right picture? I see some definite hips there.
Eh? If you want to see hipless go look at some pics of Lilo. This girl may be extremely thin but she’s got a wide(r) pelvis in relation to her waist for sure.
Hmm, my first thought was how curvy her hips are.
Love her legs!
I love her hips, but to be honest her legs scare me a little. So long and thin! She may be healthy, but I just don’t find that level of thinness attractive. Her hips are lovely, though, as well as her shape overall. Beautiful girl.
gorgeous, I think she has a pretty face
dont find her face very nice, but her body and hair are very beautiful.
I think she has a great body, I am undecided about her face. In some shots I see her as an exotic, non-conventional gorgeous beauty, and sometimes I simply dont see her appeal.
I am quite tired of seeing her wearing this type of dresses all the time though…I mean, of course, she has great legs and wants to show them I guess, but Id like to see her innovate a little. I feel a deja vu every time I see her.
GORGEOUS body, but her face is just not appealing to me.
To each their own, but I don’t get when women don’t shave their legs because it makes them feel empowered or something. I shave my legs for me, as well as for guys. I mean I don’t feel sexy or pretty when my leg hairs are long and visible (I am a brunette though, so that may be a big part of why it bothers me so much). But, really, good for you if you feel like you don’t need to, it would save me a lot of time in the shower that’s for sure. haha.
So agree! I don’t find it empowering, it just makes me feel a bit icky. It’s really uncomfortable and itchy when I have prickly legs, and I don’t see how anyone else can stand it. At the same time, I’m not insulting women who don’t do it. If that floats your boat, more power to you.
I dont not shave because I find it empowering. I don’t shave because: a. im lazy, and b. I never think about it – shaving doesn’t do anything for me, it doesn’t make me feel better or cleaner…it just takes time out of my day. And again, I feel the same way about make up – too little return on that time investment.
But it does bother me when other women (and men) think it’s gross when a woman doesn’t shave…it should be a persona choice, not a requirement.
yea i see your point Mia and I agree. I dont like not shaving my legs, but sometimes I couldn’t give a rats @ss and just dont do it. However i dont like not waxing down there…well…i used to hate having any hair at all. Now, i’m starting to hate the no hair thing. Its wierd how your ideas on it can change.
I also dont wear makeup most of the time. But thats only becuase im lazy and like giving my skin a break and dont have much money atm. Strange, in my teens i never used to go out without fake tan and piled on makeup. now, i cant be bothered with either lol
likewise. i just don’t see any reason to remove my body hair. it’s not something i think about at all. it’s certainly not a statement on anything. seems it would be a pain in the arse more than anything. it doesn’t bother me that others do, however. my lovers don’t seem to notice, and i’d never thought to even ask them their opinion on the matter. once i did though, and he said it was just a part of me and he never really thought about it.
@mel – isn’t it the shaving/waxing that causes itchiness and prickles? i certainly never experience these things. just to clarify
bugger. that was in response/support of mia .
Sexy Moma!!! I have no idea why you all are calling her a butterface! she’s way prettier facially than half of the overrated actress’s in Hollywood; Scarlett Johansson and Sophia Vergara aren’t half as beautiful facially as Irina, yet somehow they rank higher.
It’s backwards world. For me personally, Irina is near flawless.
Wow she looks incredible and what a sexy outfit.
I’m confused. In some pics she looks more curvy and in some she looks more toned. It must be the angle.
A very nice body, and I love her legs. Not too thin, not too thick, and a nice shape (albeit I like fit legs even more). An overall beautiful woman, indeed.
I think she’s really pretty and she has a nice body, also her eyes stand out to me, really pretty! I’m surprised she doesn’t shave her legs though, because if you see her boyfriend, Cristiano Ronaldo, (who I’m in love with) he has absolutely no hair on him (waxes his eyebrows, legs, even armpits!)
Hot damn, now THAT is a body.
Mia, i totally agree with u; if a woman has light enough leg hair to where she doesn’t need to shave constantly, then I say go for it! All u girls who r hating on her hairy legs are just mad u guys have to shave everyday
her body is amazing. i can’t get mad about legs being unshaven because i know i don’t always my legs. least she can get away with it, i can’t. but her figure is gorgeous.
@Lily Cristiano Ronaldo waxes his legs and armpits?? OMG, that kinda freaks me out!! Lol, if my husband would have to do that he would die… I mean CR is freakin HOT but maybe I’m old fashioned, the whole male waxing thing is a little too much for me.
on second photo she reminds me on Adriana Lima
Ummm, I’m from Romania and I can tell you that approx. 95% of our women (ages 12 to 55 in the urban area, and a big proportion of those living in rural area) shave/wax the unneeded hair (from all over the body, that is). Actually, I believe there are more cosmetic salons than restaurants in our country, cause most of us don’t shave, but wax – its more effective. So i fail to see how could a woman prefer to stay with hairy arms, legs, armpits, etc., when the feeling after waxing is soooooo comforting and pleasant, for us in the first place and for the rest of the people surrounding us, in the second place.
And what has feminism got to do with removing the extra hair? I mean, there is an obvious connection between hygiene and removing the unneeded hair.
i would die for her body!!
i just dont understand how men are attracted to her physically??? arent they attracted to curves and smthn to grab on. the same applies to vs models??
i feel the same. under your arms I’ve heard that it allows the bacteria to flourish, but i doubt its anything but psychological in terms of your legs. I get pretty lazy about this, but only when its not on show. i’m naturally blonde but with dark hair in the shaving zones. I just don’t like how it looks.
that was intended as a reply to another comment. my computer is clearly playing up again.
would someone please explain to me the connection between hygiene and hair removal? honestly, i don’t get it. as a non-hair remover i have never experienced any armpit, leg, pubic mound or otherwise infections or the like.
@georgiana – how is the hair people remove extra? how do you know which length is meant to be there and which is the extra or excess length? i mean i recognise a need to cut my toe nails because otherwise my feet will no longer fit in my shoes and will hurt, but not removing my body hair has, for me, in no way ever had a negative, unsanitary, or impractical impact. i’m not trying to incite anything here, i’m honestly just curious as to how you’ve reached these conclusions
incidentally, i did wax a few times in my early 20′s, so i know this smooth feeling you speak of, but there was also pain, expense, ingrown hairs and rashes, and the smoothness was short lived. now my legs etc. are always soft and really, still smooth, though not in the way to which you refer :-/
well, if you were a brunette with lots of thick hair, u’d know that, for example, hair at the armpits means more sweat stains on your blouse and, probably, not a pleasant odour.
otherwise, I admit that, even after brainstorming (see what u put me through
) ), I could not find other hygiene related reason for removing the unwanted hair. i also admit that I get ingrown hairs, but I never get rashy from waxing. as for the expense, cosmetic saloons are quite cheap here, due to competition reasons – as there are so many of them.
and there is always the aesthetic reason, which again does not apply if you have fair, thin hair – that isn’t the case for most of our women, as we are a nation of brunettes
). so I guess I was talking from my point of view, my bad
So beautiful..and her body is so hot
Cristian Ronaldo is very lucky
I think her lips are fake http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_OveJgXCOExU/TKIGF7H48wI/AAAAAAAAB38/AxfAVzEn0Xw/s1600/irina5.jpg
