Outfit Guide What To Wear For Your Boudoir Session Finding outfits for your boudoir session is half the fun but sometimes it is hard to know where to start! Keep in mind these simple tips and recommendations and you will look amazing! Here are tons of ideas on what to wear for your boudoir session. Some things to keep in mind: ● Not every outfit has to be lingerie ● Have at least one bra and panty set ● Bring high heels ● Try everything on before your session ● Brand new lingerie or very lightly worn is best ● Keep your body type in mind ● Wear whatever YOU feel sexy in – if you don’t feel sexy in something, you won’t look sexy in it! CUTE AND TASTEFUL BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHY IDEAS In my experience, I recommend bringing at least four- five outfits, because more choice is better than less. Try to prepare all the outfits at least a week before the shoot to avoid last minute stress. They should include: ● two matching underwear sets ● one or two tops or t-shirt ● a vest or dress LINGERIE AND UNDERWEAR General rules: the most important thing is that they must be well fitting! ● Try everything on before; choose matching panties and bra because matching colors look better in photos. ● Avoid patterns and choose some bright colors that will pop in the pictures and/or a classic black , blue or white. GENERAL CLOTHING TIPS Garters and thigh highs Bring them! They are so sexy and offer many great options for photos of your amazing legs. If you are going to wear thigh highs without a garter, make sure to get the ones with the plastic stay ups so they don’t slip off your leg. Something of His If this is a gift for your fiance/husband/boyfriend, then bring something from his wardrobe. This can be one of his favorite ties, a button down shirt, a sports jersey, recreational gear, or his uniform. Anything that makes the images more personal and sexy to him! Accessorize Bring those pearls and diamonds to your session! Have a long string of pearls? Those are perfect for draping. Have some stunning diamond earrings? Wear them! They add depth and another level of sexy to your photos. You can easily modify the look of your outfit by changing your accessories. Accessories include jewelry, scarves, hats, stilettos, boots, gloves, fishnets, stockings, garter belts, etc. High Heels The higher the better for your session! You won’t be walking around in them so don’t worry about that part. Black is obviously a great choice and goes with anything – the same with nude heels – but anything with bling or anything that is high and strappy is a must bring! Leave your wedges at home this time. Corsets and Bustiers These are great options and really make your waist look narrow. If you are smaller than a C cup, be sure to grab the ones with built in support so you don’t look flat chested. Push up bras Now is the time to pull out all the stops so don’t leave that push up bra at home. Push up bras give some added support to your girls and look amazing in photos! Bra and Panties Bring a varied selection of bra and panty sets. Start with basic black and then add colors and patterns. Bras and panties can be photographed alone or paired with any of the other clothing items or accessories you bring. Lingerie A baby doll nightie, vintage slip, teddy and/or camisole are always great choices. Corsets with thigh high stockings, a garter belt, and heels are super sexy too. Think about what colors look good on you. Maybe even ask your fiance/husband/ boyfriend what outfits he likes or what colors he prefers on you. Casual Attire Everyday clothing such as sheer tops, jeans or shorts are great choices if going for a more casual look. A simple white tank top or cami are also very versatile and can be paired with many different things! OVERALL TIPS ● Bring your clothing and lingerie on hangers with a garment bag over the top. Don’t stuff it in a duffel! This will reduce wrinkles and fold lines. ● Clean the bottoms of your shoes (and feet) just in case they appear in a photo. ● Cut tags and make sure security devices have been removed from new purchases. ● The magic of photoshop stops at tan lines. Be careful being in the sun before your session. ● Make sure your mani-pedi is fresh and matches your clothing colors and styles. French tips, golds, and neutral colors look really nice. Avoid bold colors as it will become of the focus of the photo. ● Opt for lacy, sheer demi cup bras over full coverage t-shirt bras. ● Come to the session in loose fitting clothes without bras, socks, or panties to prevent dents or lines on your body. OTHER CLOTHING IDEAS ● Cocktail dress ● Short robe or wrap ● Fur jacket or wrap ● Suit jacket ● Team jersey ● Gloves ● Suspenders ● Cardigan ● Fashion glasses ● Hair accessories WHERE TO SHOP? Lingerie and Underwear: ● Victoria's Secret , ● local independent shops for Lingerie, ● my favorite Intimissimi USA (online only) ● Naja for ethical shopping supporting women Underwear and sporty bralettes: ● Victoria's Secret sister brand PINK ● American Eagle for very nice bralettes ● Salt & lace ● Torid ● Hot Topic for a great variety of tops and clothing Upmarket Lingerie: ● Nasty Gal for daring and sexy ● Fredericks for something more daring ● Adore Me for upmarket more daring .

The fabrics have equal stretchability which means the patterns themselves don't need alterations. The main difference is in the kind of notions and the way they are used. POINTS OF INTEREST Whenever the instructions mention a scalloped lace galloon just replace this with a lycra (or spandex). Often a contrast colour will do the design even more justice. DO NOT FORGET TO ADD SEAM ALLOWANCES all around the pattern, there is no scalloped selvedge! Trim the whole garment with clear elastic and not with picot elastic which is not chloride and sun resistant. Straps elastic will not last on the long run as well in chloride and bright sunlight, replace this with channeling of the same lycra as the swim or beach wear Discard the hook and eye closure in the crotch and just stitch the seams, preferably with a blind seam. Replace the hook and eye closure of the bra with a bikini clip. There is no need to adjust the width of the bra band. Some pleats and wrinkling are not a problem in this garment since there will not be any upper clothing over it. Do NOT use cotton as a lining in the crotch, use mesh or a quick-dry thin lycra. www.merckwaerdigh.nl CHOICE OF FABRIC The choice of a fabric is directly connected to the goal of the garment.

    Business Professional Dress Code

    Business Professional Dress Code The way you dress can play a big role in your professional career. Part of the culture of a company is the dress code of its employees. Some companies prefer a business casual approach, while other companies require a business professional dress code. BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL ATTIRE FOR MEN Men should wear business suits if possible; however, blazers can be worn with dress slacks or nice khaki pants. Wearing a tie is a requirement for men in a business professional dress code. Sweaters worn with a shirt and tie are an option as well. BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL ATTIRE FOR WOMEN Women should wear business suits or skirt-and-blouse combinations. Women adhering to the business professional dress code can wear slacks, shirts and other formal combinations. Women dressing for a business professional dress code should try to be conservative. Revealing clothing should be avoided, and body art should be covered. Jewelry should be conservative and tasteful. COLORS AND FOOTWEAR When choosing color schemes for your business professional wardrobe, it's advisable to stay conservative. Wear "power" colors such as black, navy, dark gray and earth tones. Avoid bright colors that attract attention. Men should wear dark‐colored dress shoes. Women can wear heels or flats. Women should avoid open‐toe shoes and strapless shoes that expose the heel of the foot. GOOD HYGIENE Always practice good hygiene. For men adhering to a business professional dress code, this means good grooming habits. Facial hair should be either shaved off or well groomed. Clothing should be neat and always pressed.

    Press Kit the History of French Lingerie at the Sagamore Hotel Miami Beach

    LINGERIE FRANCAISE EXHIBITION PRESS KIT THE HISTORY OF FRENCH LINGERIE AT THE SAGAMORE HOTEL MIAMI BEACH Continuing its world tour, the Lingerie Francaise exhibition will be presented at the famous Sagamore Hotel Miami Beach during the Art Basel Fair in Miami Beach from November 29th through December 6th, 2016. Free and open to all, the exhibition showcases the ingeniousness and creativity of French lingerie which, for over a century and a half, has been worn by millions of women worldwide. The exhibition is an immersion into the collections of eleven of the most prestigious French brands: AUBADE, BARBARA, CHANTELLE, EMPREINTE, IMPLICITE, LISE CHARMEL, LOU, LOUISA BRACQ, MAISON LEJABY, PASSIONATA and SIMONE PÉRÈLE. With both elegance and playfulness, the story of an exceptional craft unfolds in a space devoted to contemporary art. The heart of this historic exhibition takes place in the Game Room of the Sagamore Hotel. Beginning with the first corsets of the 1880’s, the presentation documents the custom-made creations of the 1930’s, showcases the lingerie of the 1950’s that was the first to use nylon, and culminates with the widespread use of Lycra® in the 1980’s, an epic era of forms and fabrics. This section focuses on contemporary and future creations; including the Lingerie Francaise sponsored competition’s winning entry by Salima Abes, a recent graduate from the university ESMOD Paris. An exclusive collection of approximately one hundred pieces will be exhibited, all of them emblematic of a technique, textile, and/or fashion innovation. A selection of landmark pieces will trace both the history of intimacy and the narrative of women’s liberation.

    How Do Bra Strap Orientation and Design Affect the Comfort of Women with Large Breasts?

    HOW DO BRA STRAP ORIENTATION AND DESIGN AFFECT THE COMFORT OF WOMEN WITH LARGE BREASTS? Celeste Coltman, Bridget J. Munro, Deirdre E. McGhee and Julie R. Steele Biomechanics Research Laboratory, University of Wollongong. NSW, 2522, Australia email: [email protected], web: www.uow.edu.au/health/brl INTRODUCTION three strap designs were made from materials commonly Encapsulation style sports bras reduce breast motion and used in bra strap design (industrial grade bra wadding: 100% exercise-induced breast pain in women with large breasts polyester outer, 65% polyprople/35% polyester inner; cotton more effectively than crop tops [1]. Less than 50% of spandex: 95% cotton, 5% spandex; and satin power mesh: women, however, wear encapsulation style sports bras 88% nylon, 12% spandex mesh). The width of the standard during exercise because they are deemed too uncomfortable strap was based on the width of commercially available bra to wear [2]. The main source of this discomfort among straps (2.5 cm) and the wide strap was significantly wider exercising women is typically the bra straps [2]. For (4.5 cm) than the standard strap. The gel strap design example, it was recently revealed that 68% of 106 contained a Dermis Plus Polymer gel pad (10 cm x 3 mm x respondents disliked bra straps “cutting in”, whereas 57% of 10 cm; MacMed Health Care, Australia), cut into four equal respondents disliked bra straps “slipping off their shoulders” pieces and placed under the standard bra straps, in direct [3]. Despite bra straps being a primary cause of discomfort, contact with the participant’s skin.

    Post-Operative Advice After Breast Surgery Information for Patients

    Post-operative advice after breast surgery Information for patients This information leaflet will provide you with specific post-operative advice following your breast surgery. It is essential for you to have an adult with you for the first 24 hours when discharged to help with your assist with your needs as required. Binder This is a stretchy material with a Velcro fastening down the front that is worn around the chest area. Its function is to help reduce swelling and bruising. You will wake up after your operation wearing a binder. It should be worn day and night for 48 hours and then removed. We do not need it back as it is a single use item. It is advisable to wear a non- underwired bra / sports bra for at least two weeks after your operation to minimise discomfort and pressure to the breast tissue whilst the area is healing. If you have a drain the binder should stay on whilst the drain is in in place and then for an additional 24 hours after the drain has been removed. Please do not get rid of the binder until you are seen in clinic in case we ask you to put it back on. If you have had a mastectomy and develop a collection of fluid around the mastectomy site (known as a seroma - a normal side-effect of this surgery) then you may be advised to wear it a bit longer by either the consultant or breast clinical nurse specialist (CNS). The binder could cause some rubbing to the skin and should be removed if it does.

READ THE LABELS: The tags sewn into most articles of clothing advise about specific treatments. 2. TEST FOR COLORFASTNESS: Labels often indicate whether a garment is colorfast. If you’re unsure, dampen fabric in a discreet spot (like an inside seam), wait a minute or two, and blot with a white cloth; if the cloth takes on color, the garment is not colorfast. Wash noncolorfast clothes alone until they stop releasing dye (include an old white sock in the wash each time; once it emerges untainted, you can add the garment to the rest of your wash). 3. SORT AND SEPARATE: Put whites and light colors in one basket, darks in another. Use additional baskets for extra- dirty garments or items that produce a lot of lint, such as terry- cloth towels and flannel shirts. Divide heavy clothes (like jeans) and lighter sheers and permanent-press items. Zip zippers, tie drawstrings, empty pockets, and unroll cuffs.
