Irina Shayk Plays Mafia Mistress in StyleCaster Shoot
She may be dating soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo, but model Irina Shayk is married to the mob.
The Russian beauty channels a mobster's mistress in StyleCaster's deliciously vampy "Cosa Nostra" photo shoot from lensman Cameron Krone.
Shot in Norma Kamali's New York City store, the sultry black-and-white spread sees the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover star rocking long, vixenish waves and heavily lined bedroom eyes sure to win over any Goodfella.
Flashing some skin in a sheer black-lace bra-and-bell-bottom set and other racy black numbers from Kamali, Shayk busts out the "bada-bling" thanks to glitzy pieces like a Dolce & Gabbana cross, Fendi logo bracelet, Gucci cuffs, and Elsa Peretti snake earrings.
But despite the shoot's smoldering sex appeal, Shayk claims she was a late bloomer on the beauty front. (As if!)
"I was the tallest girl in school,” she tells StyleCaster. “Everybody was making fun of me because I was tall; I was thinking I’m not beautiful at all. I was shy and had short hair. When I was chosen for Sports Illustrated was when I thought maybe I’m beautiful.”
Yeah ... maybe.

The trifecta: Shayk is three times as sexy in StyleCaster's "Cosa Nostra" editorial.
