    The idea of that outfit flattering anyone's figure astounds me. I love the name 'Betty Co-Ed' though, very sassy!

    This magazine is called Secrets, so you can imagine there is plenty to post, but Betty Co-Ed just stood out!

    Oh my, that outfit is hilarious! With the jacket it almost looks cool, like Betty Co-ed was hoping to moonlight as an extra on one of the Three Caballeros live segments. Without however, I keep expecting her to break into some thigh slapping yodelling...
