The last time we did one of these posts was in 2015! I think it’s time for an update. Our most frequently asked question before women come in for their boudoir session with us is what should I wear? The cool thing about boudoir, is there are so many ideas and options for women, it doesn’t just have to be lingerie either! Sarina and I have compiled our new updated top 10 favourite outfits that women bring in for their shoot. There will be a more detailed post about each outfit idea but here is the list in completion!
10. Robes
Robes seem to be a very simple outfit, but when paired alone or with a bra and panty set it can add an element of fun. Robes with lots of textures, lace, or ones that are see through tend to work best we find.
If you want to wear a bra and pany set for your shoot but may be a little worried about showing too much skin, opt to add a robe in maybe, they are a great way to add a little more coverage or compliment your shape/outfit more by accentuating the features you want to show off and hiding the ones you don’t want too. Robes with lace are a great way to add more detail to your outfit, but robes that are see through are our favourite! They are great for wearing and shooting into the window, as you can see a woman's shape through the robe itself. It also allows whatever outfit you want to wear underneath to come through a bit more, or if you opt to go naked with the robe, it gives you a little more coverage rather than going full frontal with the nudity.
9. Sweaters, Jean Jackets, T-Shirts, or Tank Tops
Opting for a more casual outfit may be the way to go! Pairing any of these outfit ideas with a bra and panty set, just panties, or naked are a great idea for one of the outfits you want to wear during your shoot.
Oversized sweaters can give you a comfy cozy feel, and give you a little more coverage if you so wish. Jean jackets are back in style and again are great for boudoir, the jean texture looks great in photos. T-Shirts can be plain or another great way to add an element of yourself into the photos, is opting for a t-shirt with your favourite band, show, etc. on it, or if you bring in your significant other’s favourite t-shirt, it adds an element of them into your photos. Lastly tank tops are a cute idea as well, and even opting for a white see through one can add an element of sexy to your photos. A white tank top or tshirt works great as an outfit idea you can wear in our wet room as well, as water will soak into the white and show off your body a little bit more.
7. Button Up Shirt
The ever classic button up shirt. A white men’s dress shirt seems to be an outfit favourite for women and can work well to incorporate your significant other into your photos again, but don’t think you have to opt only for the white option. Even if you have a button up shirt of your own, like a plaid shirt, that can be a great way to add colour and texture to your photos.
So many options on how you can wear the button up shirt too! Again pair it with a bra and panty set, wear just panties, or go naked, the options are endless!
6. Bra and Panty Set (with lots of details like lace or straps)
Bra and panty sets are definitely a go to for boudoir, they are a classic look that you can’t go wrong with! This outfit choice isn’t hard to find and you might already have this item in your drawers. However, we would like to suggest that not only do you try a bra and panty set, but opt for one that has a little more detail to it then just your regular option. Having details like lace, straps, bling, etc. in your bra and panties are great for adding dimension to your photos, and are much more interesting to shoot.
5. Implied Nudes
Implied nudes are a great way to try out being naked without having to show off anything. You can opt for the white sheet look which is classic, and the great thing about the white sheet look is you can cover up as much as you want or show off a little more skin if you so choose. You can also do implied nudes with other outfits and not just the white sheet. Bring in his favourite t-shirt, sweater, one of your favourite shirts, and rather than wearing it, you can hold it up to your body and cover up what you don’t want to show in the photos but still giving off the idea that you are naked while still showing off a woman’s shape.
4. Stockings
We LOVE stockings, they are a great way to add an element of sexy to a bra and panty set, just panties, or naked. Lace top sheer stockings are the every classic look, however, there are tons of styles out there of other stockings that could definitely spice up your photos. Sasha’s Stockings are a line that we love to support, they are super stretchy, so great for all body shapes, and the way they are constructed are meant to come up high on the waist, but shape the booty as well.
3. High Waisted
If you know Sarina and I, you know how much we LOVE a high waisted panty. High waisted panties are a great way to give yourself a little more tummy coverage but still showing off your curves nicely. They are back in style and definitely becoming more and more common, so snatch up a pair for your upcoming shoot and you will not be disappointed.
2. Bodysuit
I cannot promote this outfit idea enough! Bodysuits are honestly great for all women of all shapes and sizes. I find if a woman is looking for a little more tummy coverage for her shoot, then this is the outfit for you. It gives you more of that tummy coverage that we women want but still shows off a woman’s shape nicely, but hugging her curves from top to bottom. They have tons of different cuts and styles, ones with sleeves, ones with cups, ones that are all lace, the options are endless.
1. Nude
You might be surprised to find out that Sarina and I’s favourite outfit you can do for your shoot is nothing! Just be naked! Nudes can be intimidating, and I get that, it’s one thing to wear lingerie in front of us, and it’s a whole nother thing to get naked and have your picture taken, but I can say in all honesty, naked is hands down the best outfit you can bring. We love it because it’s more natural and all about you! We are great at posing women of all shapes and sizes so even though you are naked we will still make you look your absolute best.
Red Lingerie } Boudoir Photos
Red lingerie is a great way to add a little bit of a Christmas or Valentine's Day vibe to your boudoir photos without going over the top!
Feel Good Boudoir } Miss M
Sometimes in life you just need a little pick me up, whether you are going through a really hard break up, life decision, or are just having a hard time, sometimes a little self care can take you from feeling pretty down to feel more blessed and loved.
Boudoir photography isn’t just for women who want some ‘sexy photos’ for their significant others, yes it can double as a nice added bonus for them, but it is definitely more for yourself and boosting your self confidence, and self awareness as well.
If you are having a hard time in life, you should honestly consider getting boudoir photos of yourself done. We have heard time and time again from clients how liberating and amazing the experience of the photo shoot itself is. That is what we truly pride ourselves in here at Pink Blush, is the experience you will come away with when the shoot is over.
Complimentary consultations are offered to anyone and everyone who is interested in getting photos done, so why not book one and see what all the fuss is about!
Pretty Boudoir Photos } Miss A
Miss A came to our studio wanting to try a boudoir shoot to boost her confidence and feel good about her body. As a lot of women do, she struggled with her confidence in her own skin, but after the completion of her shoot, she felt so great knowing that she can look pretty and sexy just the way she is. She was mostly doing this shoot as a gift to herself, but her husband of course also enjoyed in on the benefits. He was thrilled and very supportive of her through her shoot. Who doesn’t love a supportive husband.
You both were really lovely and put me at ease right away. My makeup and hair turned out so beautifully, I wish I could go back in time and have Sarina do my wedding! Calie was great at explaining different poses/angles. She also gave me great suggestions for accessories. I am so happy with my pictures, and would love to do this again one day!
Male Boudoir Shoot - Pink Blush Photography
Male boudoir shoot in our Edmonton studio
It’s not too often that we get to photograph men, and after this amazing photo shoot that I had with Miss M, I cannot wait for more to come our way. Boudoir seems like it may just be for women, trying to explore themselves and looking for a little pick me up, but men are need of this too! We are here to help anyone and everyone explore their sexy side. Sarina and I are all about boosting self confidence and a boudoir shoot with us will help us show you how truly fabulous you are.
Here are a few words from Miss M about his experience with us:
Words cannot describe how much I appreciate the level of professionalism and expertise offered by both Calie and Sarina of Pink Blush Boudoir. Each of these talented women worked so hard to help me realize the vision for my photo shoot and then went above and beyond executing that vision. I could not be happier with the results.
They created a safe and comfortable environment that immediately put my anxieties at ease, which allowed me to throw myself fully into enjoying the experience.
If you are interested in doing a boudoir photo shoot, please look no further. You will not be disappointed and will leave with a new appreciation of your own inner and outer beauty.
Miss N } Boudoir Pick Me Up
Flashback to this shoot with Miss N! This babe was looking for a little pick me up and her life, and boy was she in for a treat! She absolutely rocked her shoot, and had some super cute outfit ideas, including her sweater with leg warmer look. She made the leg warmers herself! So talented.
Here are a few words from her about her boudoir experience with us:
I don't even know where to start. My experience at Pink Blush Boudoir has been nothing but amazing. From the moment you walk in you are greeted with kindness, they make you feel welcomed and at ease with the whole process. They start with your makeup and then the photo shoot begins. I cant thank you guys enough for giving me an much needed boost of self confidence, you have no idea how much it meant to me. I will tell any girl out there about Pink Blush and what an amazing place it is.
Mirror Love } Self Love Month Pink Blush Boudoir
Have you ever looked in the mirror, looked deep in your eyes and said I love you? Gasp! I know sounds way out there doesn’t it, I mean who would look in the mirror and say I love you to themselves? Wouldn’t that be conceited? I wouldn’t want to sound high on myself, OMG what if someone saw me.
Have you ever looked in the mirror, looked deep in your eyes and said I love you? Gasp!
I know sounds way out there doesn’t it, I mean who would look in the mirror and say I love you to themselves? Wouldn’t that be conceited? I wouldn’t want to sound high on myself, OMG what if someone saw me.
This is a practice that I have shared with many of our clients over the last year, it was passed on to me from the lovely Geha, at Wellness on Whyte. I find it to be a powerful tool in helping women shifting from a fear mentality to a love mentality when it comes to how they view themselves.
It’s a simple little practice, you can literally do it when you are getting ready in the morning so there are no excuses and it can start to ignite some powerful changes. All you have to do is look in the mirror deep into your eyes and say I love you. It will feel uncomfortable at first, but just keep saying it over and over until it starts feeling comfortable and someday it will hopefully feel natural.
You can also boost up this practice by adding in 3 things you love about yourself, 3 things you forgive yourself for and 3 things you promise to do moving forward. This little minute technique can totally shift you mind set and help you start your day feeling more empowered, a little lighter, and with a little more focus.

Finally bit the bullet of boudoir } Miss H
Miss H came into our studio back in February, but it took her a little while to get up the nerve to actually make it in! I believe she purchased a session from us over a year ago but it wasn’t until recently that she finally got up the nerve to come in and get it done. Thinking about actually getting a boudoir shoot done can be scary, it’s not every day that you have to get “naked” or be in your panties in front of a stranger.
We can tell you how easy it will be and how you will be having so much fun by the end of it you won’t even care what you are wearing, but it’s one thing to hear that and another to experience it for yourself. Miss H was so happy with her images should couldn’t believe it was her, she was so thrilled that she finally bit the boudoir bullet and came in.
