Not an ordinary photo shoot.  Boudoir, or bedroom photography has found its way into the masses and is now considered to be one of the hottest trends amongst photographers and their excited patrons, with good reason.  By definition, boudoir photography is a genre of photography that focuses on suggestive, sensuous and elegant photos that are privately taken in the most intimate setting, typically in a boudoir (meaning bedroom) environment while wearing beautiful and sexy lingerie. 

Feel like a star!  Hollywood starlets have been doing this for nearly 100 years, however, and know how seductive and sensual posing provocatively for the camera can be.  Although the photos are usually suggestive and often a bit provocative, boudoir photography is considered to be more elegant than erotic and this photography session can be appealing to the average woman for a number of reasons.

Give him the ultimate gift.  Boudoir photography has become an extremely popular gift for brides to surprise their new husbands with at the time of their wedding.  Othe

Today, the WWF is teaming up with grannies nationwide for National Sweater Daya day to raise awareness about energy conservation. Led by spokesgranny Gladys, in her poinsettia-patterned knit, the campaign is meant to persuade the thermostat-inclined (guilty as charged) to don a sweater and turn down the heat. As Gladys says, grannies are “natural energy conservers” who put on a sweater when they get cold. And as we learn in the hilarious campaign video, you can sign up to receive a phone call from an on-staff granny who will nag gently remind you (as grannies do) to turn down the heat. We’ve

Now that the awards season is officially upon us, we’re getting thoroughly used to our Monday morning red carpet beauty downloads, as we debate the weekend’s beauty successes and failures over marmite toast and giant mugs of tea. On our agenda this morning? The Screen Actors Guild Awards (or, rather unfortunately, SAGs) that took place on Sunday night. Here are our favourite looks of the night…

Plait Wraps

It’s time to revisit . Not only was the book right up there with our fave childhood reads, but it also inspired a beauty obsession with the wrap-around plait. And it appears we aren’t the only ones. Dianna

Two takeaways from my day at Spa Nordstrom.

1) You haven’t LIVED until you’ve had a hot stone massage massaged onto the bottom of your feet.

2) Confess all of your skincare sins to your esthetician. You can’t hide…and if you try to, she can’t help you.

All treatments at Spa Nordstrom begin in the relaxation room with a foot soak. The soak released an aroma of eucalyptus and rosemary, and was a definite treat for the feet (and other senses!)  I also expressed my incredibly high tolerance for heat, and the water temperature was perfect. Perhaps it
