His idea of sassy model work, I guess.

It's a pet peeve of mine. I'm sorry but all I see is a shy 3 year old, not a gorgeous, sexy, confident woman when I see that pose. It drives me mad! I know all the so-called cool kids are doing it, but not me! I love the mix of opaque and sheer you've created. I agree with the other commenters that say sexy is focussing on one thing to play up. I also think sexy happens when you are totally comfortable in your own skin and clothes, whatever you happen to be wearing :)SewJillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02942981677938784086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5695034534740404365.post-66867305241447286612014-04-09T15:36:12.724-04:002014-04-09T15:36:12.724-04:00I like the polka dots and stripes mashup -- especi...I like the polka dots and stripes mashup -- especially the sleeve hems. Perfect matching! I also really like the boxy look. Makes it look more balanced to me. <br /><br />I used some sheer fabric for my Sew Sexy skirt, which still needs photographing (woops) and it was definitely a challenge. I think I used more pins in that one project than I normally use in a half-dozen projects together!

It's fun and unexpected and the fabric combo is perfect!<br /><br />I kind of wish Phin would tell me how to stand or not.... or to tuck in my bra straps if they are poking out... or that a tag is showing... or that a long dangley necklace has shifted to one side thus framing one of my boobs... Alas, I never find those things out until after the photo shoot.

Go low-cut with cleavage or back, show off your legs with something short, reveal bits of skin with cut-outs or sheer panels, bare your belly in a crop top, or wear something so tight and/or slinky that it reveals your every curve, and you've got sexy. Choosing two revealing options in the same outfit can go one way or the other, depending on how extreme your choices are, but three or more and I think you've crossed the line from sexy to trashy. But everyone has their own opinions, and I'm sure other people will disagree with me there.<br /><br />I love your mix of sheer and opaque, by the way. Totally sexy. :)Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00596360832206980948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5695034534740404365.post-58332008184254123742014-04-09T11:43:57.006-04:002014-04-09T11:43:57.006-04:00Haha, my husband is a critic like that, too! "...Haha, my husband is a critic like that, too! "Why are you standing like that? What's that face you're making? It doesn't look cute when you do that thing with your elbows" AND SO ON. I found it highly satisfying to turn the camera on him and give him all kinds of crazy directives when he modeled a sweater for the blog. :) <br /><br />I've never tried sheer woven fabric (I've used some burnout jersey that was super sheer, but not the same). I like the effect a lot, although I'm not sure I would wear it that much. I like the proportion of sheer to opaque that you used- it really works!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5695034534740404365.post-80387391081166545402014-04-09T11:14:17.010-04:002014-04-09T11:14:17.010-04:00You get bored with standing with one hand on hip s...You get bored with standing with one hand on hip sometimes, you know?
