Favorite Things for a Lavish Life
Cheese.... it's amazing. There are so many varieties, flavors, colors, smells... my mouth is watering just typing about them. Cheese gets a bad rap because it isn't the healthiest food option, but just like any favorite indulgence... there is always room for a wedge or two. I get my cheese knowledge from a long-term client of mine who writes a blog called Cheese N' Sweets on all sorts of interesting trivia to do with cheese. Check it out and learn a bit. 
Beauty Tip - Faux Lashes (Mild to Wild)
I love false lashes. In fact, I now insist that women wear them for their shoots. Why? They're dramatic, they're sexy and they're lots of fun. For a natural wide-eyed look, I love Laura Mercier's Center Faux Lashes. I wore them on my wedding day!
For a wild and artistic look, try something like these by Makeup Forever.
Step 1: Before gluing, take each lash row and wiggle it a little bit. This will help it conform to your lash line.
Step 2: To apply lashes, use a clear waterproof adhesive. I like Duo brand that's available at drugstores. Use a toothpick to apply a thin line of adhesive to the base of the false lashes.
Step 3: Let it rest for a few seconds to get a bit more tacky
Step 4: Line them up with your own lashes. Make sure they're not stabbing you in the eyelid when you blink
Step 5: Use a dark liner to go over the lash line and disguise the base of the lashes.
Flutter and flirt away!
Feral Fashions Swim Collection 2011 by Lavish Boudoir
The fabulously talented Ferrell Hapgood of Feral Fashions created a gorgeous collection of swimwear this past summer. I had the privilege to shoot it with two gorgeous models. It's swimwear, but of course I had to add a little bit of sexy boudoir flare to it. Check out my favorite pics, go to her site and put in your order for a custom bikini. They're amazing. My favorite: the lacy one of course!

Okay, it wasn't Oscar material. But don't you just love the music, dancing and of course the gorgeous costumes!?
