Over the past month or so, we've been giving you glimpses of Russia's high life, showing you how to get easy green cards, and breaking into Moscow's hottest clubs. Today, we're giving you something even more useful: 87 photos of the girls of the Miss Russia pageant. Gracing the Web pages of Maxim.com include hotties Anna Botova, Olga Kagarlitskaya, Irina Travkina, Svetlana Milinzova, Diana Yenikeeva and Anna Vtorova. We're not Russian you or anything (Get it? Rushin' you?), but click already damnit!

Welcome to Day three!  You've seen the outside of the infamous Soho Rooms in Russia. Now Anna Vtorova and Diana Yenikeeva (who you’ll enjoy next week) take you inside!  What is better than beautiful Russian ladies draped over your favorite club in Moscow?!  Nothing, so here goes. 

Soho Rooms is broken up into two distinct areas—a restaurant and aclub. They’re merged by a sexy staircase which you will enjoy with Diana next week.  We start the day off photographing Anna in the restaurant area.

The restaurant is fully furnished in warm golden tones which compliments Anna’s blonde locks and glowing personality.  We are on a tight schedule today with our early evening flight to St. Petersburg quickly approaching take off.  The crew is lacking energy from the fun-filled night before and we have exactly four hours to photograph both Anna and Diana. We regroup, map out our locations, set a time schedule down to the second and started shooting. Go team!   Somewhere between the hustle & bustle, multiple cappuccinos,  and feeling like I just finished a race, we’ve successfully completed Anna’s shoot.   Now it’s yours to enjoy. We have two extra seconds to breathe and enjoy a giggle before we start the clock again.  Check back next week as we venture into the halls of the dance floor with Diana Yenikeeva.

It's still Day Two and we're finally hitting the home-stretch with the final shoot at midnight (if you're just tuning in, we started at 5:00 am—and two posts ago—but we're still going strong). We arrived at our fifth location of the day with our collection of beauties that had now grown to three former Miss Russia Pageant contestants: Diana Yenikeeva, Anna Vtorova and Svetlana Milinzova. I've traded my tiara for a cocktail dress, and prayed for a, so far elusive, second wind. Our goal was to photograph them going into the famous Soho Rooms nightclub, and then have some fun as personally invited guests of Rustam Tariko (owner of Russian Standard Vodka).

We feared the shoot may have to be called off on account of rain- the girls were wearing furs that could not get wet, no matter what. Thankfully though, as we pulled up, the raindrops did too and it was game on! The three cappuccinos I had earlier finally kicked in as we jumped out of the car and began shooting. The line of people wrapped around the corner and even more crowded the entrance. Like a scene from a movie, the mob parted as our three gorgeous girls made their way in. It was time to party. 

Nos Drovia!
