marble & lingerie
So today was an interesting day ... I got to choose marble for our bath renovation and lingerie for my boudoir shoot 
I feel so luxurious... hehe
Anyways - I need your opinions on what to wear for the bpics. If you've had them done, what did you wear? I need ideas.
So far, this is what I'm thinking:
- his packer's jersey & panties (cotton girl shorts from gap; they have boxer brief styling and he thinks they're cute) (playful)
- pale blue satin pushup balconet demi bra (little bow in the middle) & thong from gap (sweet)
- this bra I bought in black (& matching panties that are sort of like this) + peep toe pumps (retro 1940s-ish, grayish tweed, button near toe) (sexy)
Ideas? Opinions? I am so nervous.

Re: marble & lingerie
I didn't have them done but I think those choices sound great!!
When is your shoot?
I think your choices sound great! I love the different "moods" that each outfit will represent.
I haven't been around as much lately, so I may have missed this; when are you giving the pics to Michael? Will they be taken in your new home?
GL! I haven't done them before, but my advice would be to turn the heat up. I can't imagine trying to look naturally sexy in a cold room. I would be so nervous too, but I'm sure they will be gorgeous and you know that your DH will love them!
BFP #2 11/4/12 EDD 7/20/12 missed M/C 12/13/12 @8w5d D&C 12/21/12
DX 2/7/13 with an alloimmunity + for anti-paternal antibodies started Lovenox daily & BA
BFP 2/16/13 EDD 10/28/13
Good ideas!
Kathy, I'm getting them done next Wednesday.
Jocelyn, I'm giving them to Michael before he deploys. Before today, he was deploying on Feb 17 and today we found out it's Feb 14. I'm hoping I'll have the book by then! I'm not having the pics taken in the house because I'm using a Cincinnati photographer and I'm going down to her studio. I think I'm going to have the same woman who did my epic & wedding makeup do mine for that day too, since she's down there.
I'm such a dork, but I'm sort of also interested in what marble you picked out for the bathrooms, lol!
The other stuff sounds good, too.
lol! not a dork, I'm loving this reno. I want white carrara marble, but I'm not sure about the durability. I think I may get marble floors and shower tile but do granite counter tops (white-ish)... most likely because hairspray and the like would etch the marble tops.
Awesome choices Ashley!
I did the jersey/boyshort undies combo - they're some of my fave pics. I couldn't see that VS bra from the link, but I like the idea of a pin-up type of session.
Ditto Jocelyn to make sure it's warm. I was fuh-REEZING during part of my shoot and you can see my goosebumps in some of my pics.
Thanks, Lauren. I remember your pics and I LOVE them. Gorgeous. That's where I got the jersey/boyshort idea
The pics will be in the studio, I'm sure she'll have the heat up... and I may ask about BYOB for my own sake, ha!
The bra that you can't see is the VS Miraculous pushup... these A-cups rejoiced when I tried it on. I looked like at least a C!
It's funny you mention needing the push-up...when I look back at my bpics I have two reactions:
1) holy hell my boobs are small
2) holy hell my lower abs are flat (silly post-baby droop)
LOL - this exactly!
