Holy cow, I’ve stumbled across a beautiful, delicate, romantic lingerie company, Amoralle. I’m so in love with these pieces, and more. I will warn you though, this is not a cost friendly line, but wait until you see! I’m so excited to share. Let’s look at some gowns first.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Eeek!! I really am loving this, in case I haven’t already said that. These amazing pieces would look great on any body type. There is such a soft, romantic feel to these. And the blush color is fantastic and would be great for a bridal shoot.

Next up let’s look at some bodysuits. So many to choose from!

 I love that all the garters are detachable for those who may not want to wear them. The lace again is so beautiful and delicate. I love how the neckline of the two black and sheer bodysuits are different to fit everyone’s style.

One of their special pieces that I came across is this

So pretty! I love it paired with the high waisted black panties but really you could pair it with anything.

You can visit the pieces I found here. Take a peek and tell me what you see that you love! Can’t wait to hear what you think about this brand and what your favorite pieces are.

This week I heard something on a TV commercial that I knew would be perfect to share. It was a commercial for a department store, and they said something about blush being the new neutral. I love this idea! I think blush being considered neutral is nice because when you think about neutral colors, at least when I do, I think black, grey and white. But blush, that’s got a bit of something to it. Let me show you some great ways to wear it as a neutral.

You can jazz it up with a fun coat.

You can pair it with a gorgeous green

And of course you can always pair with another neutral.

Blush Dress & Oversized Coat

 

Blush looks great paired with jeans too.

Denim & Blush

 

Of course you don’t have to pair it with another color at all.

What do you think ladies? Do you have anything blush in your wardrobe? Do you consider it a neutral? What do you pair it with, if anything?

Let’s chat a bit about hair today, and some of the 2017 hot hair trends. There were about 10 that I could find people talking about regularly and today I’m going to highlight a few of my favorite ones.

First up: pastels! These gorgeous soft colors can really be done on hair natural hair color, although of course it’s going to be easier to do on a naturally lighter hair color vs. a darker color that needs to be bleached first.

I really love this trend and might try it for myself, although I am discouraged by the upkeep since I have naturally dark hair. I like though that this color trend can easily be done as highlights if you wish as opposed to dying your whole head.
The second hair trend to show today is Rose Gold hair. A friend recently did this color and it was quite pretty, although she didn’t think it really went well with her skin tone so that is something to keep in mind. But you may not know how you feel about it until you’ve actually tried it (that goes with any hair color!).

What a range of different beautiful shades! It really again does depends on what your natural hair color is. I am really loving the middle and lower right photos as I could probably pull those off from my dark hair.
Next is a color trend that I encourage to do only if you start out light or as a blonde. I’ve dyed my hair blonde before, and the upkeep and end results were difficult. Often I would end up an orangey blonde and that was not pretty lol. But this warm buttery blonde is something you can easily achieve starting off with light hair.

This trend has warm tones added to it so it’s not such a shock as our next 2017 hair trend.
Platinum!

Can we just talk about the one with the purple roots first? I love that one! Ok, this is an amazingly gorgeous color that I personally feel suits certain people. You have to have the attitude, for lack of better word, to pull this color off. What I appreciate is that I was able to find some styles for dark hair; the bottom left for example. I think that is a gorgeous way to add some of this platinum to your naturally dark hair.
Last, but certainly not least, let’s talk about the 2017 Pantone color of the year. Oh what, you don’t know what it is yet? It’s called Greenery.

A bit shocking, huh?! It’s a very pretty color, not one I would personally choose for my hair though. If you are thinking of this color I do encourage you to go based off of your hair length. If you have a shorter cut go forward with coloring the whole thing. If you have longer locks you may want to do something as in the left photo; only the bottom or maybe some strands of it. You don’t want to look like you’re getting ready for a costume party.
What do you like? Are you going to see your stylist soon for one of these hot 2017 hair trends?

Bringing it back to lingerie talk today ladies. I’m going to focus on some curvy body friendly items.

There are so many gorgeous items you can find to wear for your boudoir session. Today I’m focusing on items I found online at Lane Bryant. What’s especially nice in this case is that you can go down to your local mall (most malls have a Lane Bryant) and actually try these pieces on.

Let’s take a look at some of the things that caught my eye.

Lane Bryant

 

Some women are not comfortable baring a lot for their boudoir shoot, and that is ok! There is nothing that states you need to come in with some itty bitty bra and panty set. Everyone is comfortable in something different so choose what you like! If you are unsure bring lots of options, or heck, even schedule a wardrobe consultation with Danea before your shoot! Back to those pieces though; I love the peach outfit. The black lace overlay just gives it a little something extra and you know their bras are well made to support a larger chest. The chest cut out of the black chemise gives a nice little hint of cleavage and the cream lace over the flowy chiffon fabric is a beautiful detail.

If you are more comfortable in a bra and panty set, check out these two. I always love the idea of a garter belt and stockings, but maybe that’s just me! The bra has that beautiful red strap that just adds a little something extra around the chest. And the black set, well that happens to be my favorite of anything I found. I love how the panels seem to be a bit sheer, giving a little hint of something, and then how it ties around the neck. I’m a sucker for those little details and they really can change an ordinary lingerie outfit from blah to stunning.
Lane Bryant

 

Some of the last things I found are a combo of some two piece sets and some bodysuits. Again everything I’m sharing has something added that just makes it stand out. Lace detail in the white and black bras; lace in the apricot bodysuit; the halter neck bodysuit that ties at the nape of the neck; the large keyhole of the bra and the skirt with garters.
What’s your favorite or what can you see yourself wearing for your shoot? What; you don’t have one booked?! What are you waiting for; call her today!
