Monica Sims is our Miss September 2015, and she’ll light up your life with this set from photographer Josh Ryan. Half Bolivian, with blonde hair and olive-green eyes, Monica comes to us from Orange County, California. “I’ve got a bright side and a dark side,” she says, dispensing with any sense of formality. “So many people try to put on an image and a show, but I never try to be someone I’m not. I do what I like, and at this point in my life, I don’t want to take anything too seriously.” Lucky for Monica, being a Playmate is more like fun than work—for her Centerfold shoot, Josh and his team set her up with a sunny day and a swimming pool. “I love my pictorial,” she says, her full lips playing at a smile. “I’m just chilling by the pool on a typical beautiful Los Angeles day. It’s effortless and chic, and that’s me.” The living is easy with September Playmate Monica Sims, right here on Playboy Plus.
