OK ladies. I take my boudoir pix on Sat at Swank Studios in Smithfield. Just got a fresh mani/pedi tonight. Got brows threaded already at Chandni's. Hired MUA (getting fake lashes and already had consult on 3 looks) . Hair appointment is early Sat morning. Finalizing accessories tomorrow. Did I forget anything? Any last minute advice?Cicy

    Alf I was going to be there. But unfortunately since I am the only "real" bread winner in the house at the moment and with other financial obligations, I could not attend. Remember FI got laid off last month. We were not prepared for that one. Things will be better in a month or so. I wish I could have.

    Remember the pics I sent to you and Ci last night? I posted that before I saw you post your question about me being at Swank with Ci on Saturday. Which I responded to.

    **alf**: I forgot my theme music.  That's wassup. I have to channel my inner Sasha Fierce! I am packed already as far as outfits and shoes and b-cage veil.  Just need to go through the accessories with my girl tomorrow (the one that hooked my shoes up for the e-party). BTW: Big Sis is sitting this one out ..I will miss her...I do have my planner and MUA that will be there hyping me up. <I may need to take 1 glass of vino (or a shot) for some liquid courage>

    It wasn't so much as the package because Ci and I were sharing the session from a photog we spoke to about a month or so ago. I have to travel there (3.5 hours), get my hair and nails done, outfits for the session (which I had gotten like 2 already), and money in case. I don't like traveling when I am not financially prepared. And this is one of those times. Plus my baby girl is on the cheerleading squad this year so that took precedence over things too. FI said I could do it at a later date but it will cost me money (the least expensive session is $300). I can think of other things to do with that money lol. It just wasn't in the budget this time. But like I said in a month or so we will be back on track.

    @cicy you mentioned that they take these pics across the country I think. Do you know if they are in Chicago or can you send me a link to website. Thanks for your help.

    WORK. IT.seriously, that's it.okay for real...good posture! stand up straight if you're standing and elongate the torso. If you're doing anything that shows your legs or feet, point those toes! on your back, arch your back--push those girls up towards the heavens!think sexy thoughts. It'll read on your face if you're scared or unsure of yourself! Just think to yourself 'yeah I got this. Tyra ain't got nothing on me!' and it will come through in your expressions! Confidence confidence confidence!!

    **vegasdiva10**: Swank Studios is only in Smithfield and Raeigh, NC, I believe. Sorry. Most photogs now in every city have added boudoir pix into there repertoire. Thanks for the posture tips.  I totally forgot about that.
