Miss C - Lavish Boudoir

C and I met nearly a year ago at a bridal fair.  She was working with another vendor and our two booths were sort of squashed into the back corner.  We ended up spending as much time chatting with each other as with brides.  On my next trip to her city, we did a shoot in her home with two different looks by the fabulously talented Latonya Beckum.  C was so easy to work with... I mean, she's gorgeous, right?  But it was her confidence and spunk that made the shoot so wonderful.  Thanks for letting me share, C.

This blond bombshell knew that she wanted to do this shoot the right way from the very beginning.  She came over to meet me and talk about our all the details and how to get the most from it.  Miss J was just a doll from the get-go.  She's got that wholesome sexy look that you know boys have been chasing since kindergarten.  She hired Randi Buchanan to do her makeup and together we collectively decided on two drastically different looks.  She wanted both the sweet side and the vampy side.  For her shoot, she slipped right into character.  With flushed cheeks and wide eyes, we shot the first half of her shoot.  The second look was all drama... big hair, red lips, and leopard print lingerie.  She bears a striking resemblance to Christina Aguilera, don't you think?

Beauty Tip - Blow Out

There has never been a Victoria's Secret Angel with limp and lifeless hair.  Blow out your hair like a pro and get the most volume and swing you can. 1) Apply a volumizing product to your roots.  Just your roots.

2) Blow your hair 90% dry while flipping it upside down.

3) Section off a little of your hair at the crown of your head.  Clip the rest back and out of the way.

4) Use a large ceramic round brush to pull your hair taught while you dry it the rest of the way.  Wrap 1-2 inch sections around a medium to large velcro roller and secure it.

5) Repeat section by section from the crown of your head to the nape of your neck.

6) Set with a comb-through hairspray like this one.

7) Let hair completely cool while you apply your makeup, undo the rollers and comb through.

See?  Amazing volume!  Now go put on your highest heels and turn some heads!
