Beautiful Women: Year Eleven

As I noted back in March 2017, I have elected to have annual rather than quinquennial (five-year) lists of the women I have featured here to date because quinquennial lists are too damn hard to put together.  Not that an annual list is all that much easier to assemble.

Be that as it may, the one hundred women I have featured in the year gone by include the usual assortment of actresses, dancers, and models, with athletes and media personalities in the mix. As with the women I featured in the first decade of this blog, a good deal of them are Americans, but  women from other countries are also represented, particularly among the dancers I featured in December 2016. And where a woman's nationality was in doubt - this applies to the more obscure models I have featured in the past twelve months - I did not list one.

Two women on this list remain unidentified, though I hope someone will eventually provide their names for me.  The unidentified woman in the Buf-Puf ad is from June 2017; just go to the posts from that month via the blog archive drop menu to find her, and maybe you can identify her and give me her name  as a comment  under that post.  The unidentified J. Jill model, of course, is in the post right before this one. :-)

As always, I think I've been posting a pretty good mix of women in the past year, and I hope to continue to do so in the coming year.  Who knows, I may feature another politician soon. :-D  Anything is possible.  So, without further ado, here's my latest list. :-)
