(For Non-Boudoir Sessions)

Once you’ve booked your appointment, it’s time to start thinking about what to wear, and how. Don’t sit there anxiously tapping your nails and counting down the seconds—it’s time to get excited. This is all about making you look and feel fantastic, which means you’ll be preparing for a day of fun and fabulousness! Plus, we’ll be here for moral support every step of the way.

Remember that there are a lot of different types of clothing to choose from. Wearing something with a personality will make you stand out!

• Choose something that is comfortable.
• Choose something that you feel confident in.
• Choose something that is flattering to your body type.
• Choose something that is in-line with your style and personality!

Dress for yourself, not for the other people around you.

While this may seem like a no-brainer statement, too often we see people dressing in ways that don’t speak to their true selves—or worse, picking out outfits based on what they think will impress other people. This can lead to all kinds of stupid things: wearing clothes that make you feel uncomfortable; constantly changing your style because someone else tells you how your clothes should look; and spending money on things that aren’t right for your body type or personality just because they’re popular. That’s why it’s so important to dress the way YOU want—not the way everyone else does! You’ll feel more confident having created an authentic look that matches who YOU are at this very moment in time rather than trying so hard to fit into some idealized version of yourself from five years ago (when all anyone wore was plaid) or ten years from now (when everything will be made out of hemp).

KNOW YOUR LOOK.

Knowing what colors look good on you and which styles of clothing will flatter your body type is key to having a great-looking wardrobe that’s still in line with your personal style. Once you know these things, it’s easier to build on them and experiment with different looks that make sense for you as an individual.

Trust yourself!

Trust yourself! You know best. Your body is your temple, and it’s your responsibility to dress it with garments that make you feel good. If you like the way something looks on you—if it makes your skin glow and heart sing—then go ahead and wear it!
This isn’t the time to be afraid of being judged by others or feeling uncomfortable in public. This is an opportunity to embrace who you are at this very moment and take pride in how great your body looks (and feels).

When it comes down to it, there are no right or wrong answers when it comes to fashion. You have to experiment with what makes you feel good! Remember that clothes are meant to express who you are, not hide who you are (and don’t let anyone tell you differently). So just be yourself, wear what makes YOU happy—and go on living your life in style!
