Have you ever been shopping online and see a cute teddy or bodysuit that you are absolutely in love with, but still didn’t buy it?
Have you ever been walking through the mall and see a bra and panty set on a mannequin that is YOUR color, but still don’t even try it on?
Are you hesitant to buy lingerie in the first place?
Boudoir and Lingerie
As we are all aware, there are tons of ways and stores to shop from these days. We have the availability to see something we like and have it delivered to our doorstep days later with the click of a button. We also still have the traditional shopping experience in store. Yet, there is a hesitation to buying lingerie and clothing that truly makes you feel sexy. Well, there a lot of reasons why people sometimes choose not to buy lingerie, and often the reasoning lies heavily with understanding your body type. Many people get discouraged by lingerie simply because it doesn’t fit the same way it did on the model when you bought online. But understanding that all of our bodies are beautiful and different in their own way, can equally help out with the super stressful task of finding the right lingerie for your body type. One boudoir photographer did her best to try to outline different body types in her blog, to help her clients understand what would work best for them.

After you understand your specific body type, next is trying to find the perfect place to do your shopping. With the body positivity movement gaining traction, plus size boudoir photography is also growing in popularity. Some companies have made it their responsibility to answer the call of inclusivity and are now providing products that support multiple body types.

BODY INCLUSIVE LINGERIE BRANDS:
Maybe you are more of an in-person shopper and need to physically touch your item before purchasing. Maybe you need the extra assurance of trying them on before you feel comfortable buying. Or maybe you were scrolling through boudoir galleries getting ideas for your session and see an outfit that you know you saw hanging on a rack recently at a nearby store. A Chicago boudoir photographer outlined quite a few stores you can visit for in-person shopping that can truly optimize your shopping experience.

HOW TO PREPARE:
More importantly, no matter where or how you shop, no matter your body shape, no matter how much you spend on your lingerie, your boudoir session is about your comfortability. This session is about you being and feeling the sexiest you have felt about yourself. So picking an outfit that doesn’t make you feel sexy, it probably isn’t going to work for you. Make your decisions for you, my loves.
Have an amazing day and always be the best version of you. You are worthy. You are beautiful. You are unique. You are the only you that you can be, so make the best of it. Much love, as always. See you soon
