Penelope Cruz Knows How to Turn it On
I recently watched an interview with Penelope Cruz on 60 minutes and was impressed with how down-to-earth she was. One of the sexiest actresses of our time admitted to feelings of insecurity, not really knowing how sexy she truly is. But what struck me the most is how she is able to switch the sexy on for her roles in films even if she suffers from self-doubt in that area. For me, that is one of the biggest lessons I have learned about self confidence in general is that by just acting as if you are confident, you can find it from within. For a boudoir session I encourage my clients to do this. You can even act as if you are one of your favorite sexy actresses, like Penelope Cruz! The camera loves confidence, even if it is implied!

French Girls - Sexy and BRAVE!
Stumbled upon this video today by French Electronica group, “Make the Girl Dance” and was blown away by the bravery of these girls. Their confidence is incredibly sexy and I love how their nakedness seems almost natural and rather innocent if it weren’t for the shocked glances of onlookers. Fun song too! It’s being used for the new Victoria Secret Bombshell commercials. Love the French accent! Ohh la la!
Inspired: Photographer Yu Tsai for Muse Magazine
How was I unaware of this photographer before now? Yu Tsai has a pretty amazing body of work. I really like this new Lindsey Lohan project he did for Muse Magazine shot at the Chateau Marmont (love that place). Nice way to tie video in with the stills. The video is pretty darned sexy, probably not something you want to watch at work. Lindsey really has some great expressions in it. She is definitely not afraid to show her sexy side in this! I was instantly smitten with the song used in it. Added it to my playlist for our boudoir shoots. 
Inspired: Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show
Did any of you watch the Vicoria’s secret Fashion Show last night? I did, and loved it as always! It always has a strange side-effect for me, as I find myself getting a little teary-eyed watching it. But I sometimes weep when I am excited by creativity and beauty. Weird, huh? Oh heck, I’m just a sensitive girl, what can I say?
Anyway, in case you missed it, you can view it in it’s entirety here. There is never an uninspired moment. If you are looking for ideas for wardrobe for your next boudoir shoot, take special note how they never just leave a VS outfit to star on it’s own. It is all about creating drama with the accessories.
Sexy European Fragrance Commercial
Europeans just ‘get’ what’s sexy. This commercial for YSL Parisienne Fragrance starring Kate Moss is smokin’ hot! Aren’t the old-fashioned pink roses absolutely beautiful? I’m hoping someone will bring a prop like that to their shoot one day soon! Or better yet, big, pink PEONIES!
