Another What to Wear Wednesday



It is true what they say, although I am not really sure who "they" are in this case, but they are smart people. Accessories can make or break your outfit or look. And it is not just limited to what you are wearing to work or a wedding or even a date night, it is very true for your photo sessions whether it is a boudoir, couples or engagement session.



You might have a really great piece of lingerie which you will of course look amazing in but how great would it be to finish the look with a killer set of high heels. While THE right pair of shoes should never be taken for granted, there are are other accessories that can really help you achieve the look you want for your session. Like if you are going for a more natural, down to earth look for an outdoor session than you might consider a simple necklace that is a little longer which would work perfectly with a flirty pair of jeans and a black fitted tank top.



Some other accessories to consider:



Stockings, your favorite clutch or small handbag, hats, glasses, bracelets, earrings, hair accessories including feather extensions (I love those). Really anything goes.

What to Wear Wednesday - a little late

I apologize for the delay in my newest edition of What to Wear Wednesday. I had a couple of meetings last night and one turned into a four hour chat session with my client and friend, Miss E (stay tuned for a little sneak peak of her boudoir session)...who didn't end up leaving the studio until after midnight. And then I had to go to bed.


I have been wanting to do a more casual boudoir session, that doesn't take place in my bedroom set, but in my lounge set. There are some stores that have their own line of sleepwear and loungewear and while the whole line looks really comfortable, but the clothing looks pretty sexy too. So when you are planning out the wardrobe for your next boudoir session, why not look at some of your more casual clothing. I am not suggesting that you pull out the sweats that you weed your garden in or the tank top that you wear to scrub your tub and toilets in but consider the clothing you wear when it is rainy, miserable Sunday afternoon when you are curled up on the couch with your significant other watching an old movie or reading a new book and what makes you feel comfortable and a little sexy.


But you can't forget about accessories that really do finish the whole look. You might decide to wear a pair of black booty shorts and a slouchy warm sweater, but to really pull it together you also wear a pair of those moccasin type slipper shoes from Payless or a pair of Uggs. But you can't forget about props, so maybe you wear a camisole, shorts and a cute little cartigan and you favourite coffee mug that you drink out of every morning.
