Decorating trees, hanging stockings, putting up lights, opening presents, etc. These are all great traditions of Christmas, but so is the time honored tradition of dynamite chicks in dressing up in short Santa skirts. What's the origin of this age old custom? I think it goes back to Mrs. Claus - we tend to picture her as an elderly woman; of the Aunt Bea variety. Well, she wasn't always old. Once upon a time, Mrs. Kris Kringle was a stone cold fox!
So, in honor of this sacred tradition, here's a gallery of Santa's Helpers decked out in their Christmas best. Merry Christmas!
