Fashion Friday Velvet Secret| Santa Clara Victoria’s Secret

It’s getting a bit chilly outside. I LOVE IT!! When that happens there are certain favorite fabrics that come to mind for everyone. For me, my favorite has always been and will always be VELVET. It’s soft to the touch, flattering on the form and toasty during a frosty night. Even a trim of the alluring fabric sends the imagination soaring. The wonderful thing is I am not the only one who thinks it’s time to roll out the velvet. In fact, Victoria’s Secret has the best collections in this material. They have also dedicated an entire section under Victoria’s Secret Fashion Hub that illuminates this trend in so many diverse ways. Here are some of my personal picks from their Velvet Collections…

SciFi Fashion Friday | Best Bay Area Photography

Sizzling Steampunk

It’s October, so that means it’s time for Halloween! There’s still time to choose what you want to wear to the party of the year. But this blog is about what to wear after the party when you want to do some trick or treating in the boudoir. One of my favorite ideas is SteamPunk!! What’s steampunk you ask?

Steampunk is a style of design and fashion that combines historical elements with anachronistic technological features inspired by science fiction. In other words, it is the most badass costume idea since the Gothic Vampire. From head to toe, you are transformed into a fine Industrial Lady with a bit of battle in her and a lot of elegance from a very different era. Here are some of the most exceptional examples of this timeless and daring fashion choice.

Hats/Head Dresses

Mask/Goggles

Jewelry/Gloves

Fans/Parasols

Lingerie/Bolero

Corsets/Intricate Bodices

Skirts/Garters/Stockings

Shoes/Boots

Halloween is about being the most unique character and having fun doing it. It doesn’t always have to be spooky or gory. It can be leather clad, metal trimmed, doused in lovely lace, and uniquely mechanical.

So if you decide on this lively vintage look you will be the invention of a science fiction dream. No matter where the party takes you to have a safe trick or treat

(adult style, wink wink)!

The F Words of Fall Fashion Friday | San Jose Boudoir Photography

FALL IS FINALLY HERE!! I know I’m not the only one excited about unpacking all my fall fashions. With all the right boots, jackets, furs, hats, dresses, and scarves you are set for a fantastic season. But today I have something better in mind. What better way to start than what goes underneath all the wardrobe and what comes out in the boudoir.

For this Fashion Friday Fall edition, we will be exploring the F’s of this fun season. They’re colors, fabrics, emotions, and nature. Each individual word holds a special meaning to everyone and evokes different images. These are the images and thoughts that come to my mind.

Fuschia is the hottest fall color this year and for all the right reasons. It’s colorful and vibrant with a bold attitude all its own. Though it is a risky color it is worth how it makes every one of your features the center of your lover’s world. Whether head to toe or just a dash, it’s a color that brings out a passion other colors forgot even existed.

Floral patterns are not exclusive to flowers or even a warmer season. It is the natural beauty falling delicately from the trees after the emerald leaves have become golden. It is the lone blossom which refuses the autumn change. Let the deeper more enchanting hues inspire your best self. Let that spirit guide you when you choose the perfect floral lingerie for the boudoir.

You have an inner sexy that sores above any woman you know. There are many materials to express this part of you, but feathers are always best. Feathers are an erotic gesture meant to tickle the fancy and always leave them wanting more. So feel free as a bird to wear a simple trim or all over the body. No matter the amount the allure is unchanged.

Fierce is the feeling you get when you know you’re in control. It’s the pussycat in you aching to let the leopard come out and play. Knowing the sound of the leather stretching on your body as you bend him to you makes him break a sweat. This is a powerful word that requires a powerful outfit matched with a fearless attitude.

And leather is not the only way to evoke that inner rocker chick. Fishnet is my favorite fabric for the fiercest look. The eyes go wild with how very revealing it is. The texture is sensual, like fur it provokes a similar sensation. Comfort is always guaranteed as it moves with every twist. Feel vulnerable, unstoppable and just a little nasty all at the same time.

Fantasy comes in many forms. It comes in whatever form your heart desires most. For your lover, you can be a superhero, a belly dancer commanded by the king, a warrior princess, or even a brocade beauty waiting ready for her Lord. It is all about the character it brings out in you, for in a fantasy you are never yourself but always out of this world. Use that when you find an outfit that brings out the unreal you.

Of course, I must end the best with the last. Savage X by FENTY!! The newest, absolutely hottest must-have lingerie brand of Fall 2018 by singer, actress, makeup and fashion mogul Rhianna Fenty!! My girl RiRi is on FIRE!!!

These looks undoubtedly encompass all the F Words of Fall Fashion! These masterfully designed works of art from Fenty closed off New York Fashion Week a month ago and are still the unending talk of the world. The collection represents every woman, every curve, every color, and every unique attribute that makes a woman everything she desires in herself.

No matter the word chosen, make sure to embody it. Who cares what it means to everyone else. It only matters what it means to you because you are the only you who knows your desires. Have a splendid equinox filled with fun.

Summer Inside | Best Bay Area Boudoir Photographer

Bring The Sizzle Inside

Boy, is it hot out there! And you’ve been spending all day baking in the sun. That’s why it’s time to take the date inside. That’s when the night gets even hotter. What better way to make your lover break a sweat than with the perfect lingerie. Since it is such a bright time only bright beautiful colors will do. Start with all the colors of the rainbow and let the summery hues inspire you. So crank that AC and make the season come alive indoors.

White

Divinely simple and always exquisite. A hue that brightens and softens all in one elegant entrance. Though white is often associated with the Winter season, with snow that sparkles like crystals, it is also a color that invokes the hue of summer.

Yellow

The flowers are in bloom and the sun is pouring in warmth and light. Oh no, I’m not talking about outside. I’m talking about Yellow and how it brings that exact summer sensation right into the favorite room in the place.

Orange

Think of an adventure under a setting sun and the colors it produces. As the sun sets those yellows sometimes turn to orange. Those moments are the most romantic. That same romance can be worn as you radiate with the beauty of a Tuscan sunset.

Pink

Another color a sunset often has are bursts of pink streaking through. On occasion, it encompasses the entire sky. Those are the sunsets that are the most passionate. Who wouldn’t want to wear the color of passion for a night destined to be filled with plenty of it?

Purple

A regal yet relaxed statement may seem an odd combination at first, yes. But on a perfect summer night with a glass of wine and your handsome prince, this lovely statement is not only simple to achieve it is an absolute must for a most successful evening.

Blue

Another regal yet racy color is blue and with the various shades, the stunning possibilities are endless, timeless and without a season. Let it remind you of the water that cools our bodies and quenches our thirst. Make this the inspiration you take with you to every room in the place.

Green

Nature may come inside for a naturally sexy night with a brilliant shade of green. From emerald to moss, the perfect lingerie can bring that sense of spirit as you awaken your inner desires. Entice him further as the essence of the garden comes to life in the boudoir.

Red

Make his heart race with the hottest color of all. A sizzling summer like no other is waiting for your lover. Turn the flames up a little more with a sheer material that leaves nothing to the imagination. Why keep him guessing when you’ve already made his blood boil?

Black

Though, why change something classic? Are all those bright colors not much to your liking? Are you more of a midnight person with a dark an daring side? Black is your color, Black is intense and exciting, and black is always here to stay. Embrace your Dark Side.

It’s almost too hot to stay inside! How could anyone stay cool, even in air conditioning, with all these perfect boudoir looks? So if you’re looking to make your summer never ending no matter where you are, there’s lingerie for that.

Independence Never Looked So Good | Santa Clara Los Gatos Holiday Boudoir Photography

Happy July 4th!!

Independence Day is the day we celebrate stickin’ it to the King of England! Just like the other countries of the world that celebrate freedom, we wrap ourselves in our flag and blow things to smithereens. It’s also a day where the adventures seem endless. There is always somewhere to go and something to do on the 4th of July! So I guess the only question is, what do I wear? Here are some inspirational ideas that will make you one hell of a patriot.

When thinking of what to put together always think red white and blue. It’s your freedom to wear whatever colors you want, but it’s always fun to show your pride loudly and proudly. And plus you can’t go wrong with this color combination. Leave it to a woman, Betsy Ross, to make sure our colors were going to always be fashionable for generations!!

Let your pride fly as freely as the flag and represent the U.S.A with class. Always feel free to celebrate how you like, but please party safely and enjoy celebrating the independence of our great country by watching a light show blowing up the sky! Have a Happy Independence Day!

Final Touches For Summer | San Francisco Bay Area Boudoir Photography

Let’s complete your Summer Style!!

Face it, besides a swimsuit, sunblock, and bag, you NEED something to dry off with and something to throw on between destinations without having to worry. Without a great towel and a beautiful cover up, you simply are not prepared for summer. Here’s are some great ideas to complete your summer and make it as sensational as possible.

Starting with the most important of course…

Towels!!

Don’t just think of them as a way to get dry or lay on the hot sand. Think of it as an extension of yourself. Everything you love can be reflected through your towel. No matter what it is or how crazy! Here are the latest trends for Summer!!

You’re an Animal!!

Animal prints are always a blast. But you can go one step further with a print of your favorite animal (even if it’s your very own pet.)

Happy Hour!!

Wet your whistle with a good cocktail while laying poolside on one. It’s a refreshing way to have a little fun with your summer.

Food for Thought!!

What’s a summer outing without a good feast? Make your summer more delicious with a fantastic food towel shaped like your favorite treats.

Tribal Connection!!

Bring back the spirit of the native culture and feel free and easy while walking on the beach or laying on the grass and dream the day away.

Little Mermaid!!

Be apart of a beautiful, magical world that only exists in the purest imagination and feel one with the sea and the summer.

Leave A Message!!

Make a statement and don’t be shy about conveying exactly what you want for your seasonal experience. Be creative while staying cool and dry.

Flower Child!!

Get in a natural state of mind by bringing the palm trees and tropical flowers with you to every summer destination.

Now that you’re set with an awesome beach towel…

It’s time for the chicest part of summer…

CoverUps!!

Of course, it’s easy to just wrap a towel around you and walk around. But it is not the most practical nor the most fashionable. The towel always falls off and drips and gets sand all over the place. If you want your summer fun to continue without worry then there here are the latest trends for every personality.

CoverUps!!

Animal Instinct

Bring your wild side out and making the boardwalk your personal catwalk with animal-inspired designs.

Push Her Buttons

A simple, oversized, button up blouse is a must-have for your breezy beach outing.

The Touch, The Feel, Of Cotton

Make it funny or make it casual, but always make it comfortable with cotton.

Garden of Eden

Bring a fresh feel with a floral design and accentuate your more natural side.

Flapper Fabulous

Let those tassels sway in the breeze and let the wind point the way to the unforgettable.

Bohemian Ways

Just as the music follows so too does the festival vibes they bring with a bohemian inspired print.

Jump All Over It

In order to elongate every inch, you must take a chance and plunge into a jumper.

Lovely Lace

Sheer elegance and chic will follow every season when wearing lace material.

Neon Dreams Come True

The sun isn’t the only reason for people around you to wear their shades when wearing neon.

Catch More Fish With That Net

Fishnet is not just for the catch of the day anymore.

Who Wears The Pants

Sometimes the right slacks make your summer outfit sizzle.

Sensational Skirts

Summers are all about bringing the skirts out to play.

Top Me Off

You’re going to need to top to go with that hot summer sun.

Romp Around A Bit

Everything about summer is the romper: perfectly sunny in every way.

Dress It Up

Slay the day away, no matter where you’re going, with a long flowing dress.

Simply Wrap It Up

It’ll get that summer style wrapped up, thank you.

With the perfect coverup, your summer style is complete…

Happy Summer!

Now your summer needs are met you are set for the fun in the sun, a cool moonlit night and everything in between. Enjoy your cocktails, your bbq’s, your tan, your best life and your best friends!
