Nude shoes are a must have in today's modern day wardrobe for the fashion conscious lady. With high fashion becoming even more accessible to the masses than ever, we are bombarded with a slew of fashion trends everyday. One of the most fundamental part of having a fantastic wardrobe is flexibility. Nude shoes are completely perfect when trying to find something that adds selection.

In the event you want a fashion accessory which can match a wide selection of fashion styles, then nude shoes are for you. They're equally at residence be it a formal function or a day out at the beach. Not just that but you could also use them with a selection of colors and themes that range from strongly colored to formal attire.

In case you are wearing a dress which you want to highlight, then these shoes can draw attention to that attire pretty easily. It can be a pair of tailored trousers or a bright floral dress. It does this by blending in to natural skin tones and drawing attention away from the shoes to the dress or blouse. Bypass the normal black shoes which are so prevalent within the marketplace and opt for skin colored ones if that is your goal. Due to this, they are the natural selection after you pick to show off a great dress.

Legs tend to look longer when wearing nude shoes also. Nude pumps are particularly adept at pulling this off. This is due to the way our brain discerns images. If the shoes match the color of your skin well, they pretty much always look longer. This is because of the unbroken line of color that runs from the legs to the foot whenever you use skin colored shoes. Combine them with pumps and you can actually definitely play up the effect with ease. Stay clear of straps as they cab break the uniform line that creates the impact.

This naturally doesn't work with black or white shoes as there is a clear break between skin and shoe color. This is why making use of open top shoes are vital. Steer clear of square or rounded toes as it gives the impression of a stubby foot. When given a selection, usually pick those which are pointed to give the illusion an excellent increase.

As mentioned above, all straps must be avoided as they present a clear break in the line This is also accurate for bows, feathers, gems and anything else that disrupts the clean lines. After all, the whole point would be to draw attention to other areas.

Finding the best shade of nude shoes for your own use ought to pose little to no challenge as manufacturers ordinarily provide a plethora of varieties. This is very important as as a global marketing and advertising tool given that all of us have different skin tones.

There is something about a nude photograph that captures the mind and soul, allowing your deeper intellect to understand the natural beauty of a human body's curves, lines, and shape. A nude photograph may appeal to everyone, but for the daring and artistic, it is a beautiful portrait. Today, there are many studios that offer nude photography. You do not have to be a model or a celebrity to be photographed this way. Anyone can pose nude and be photographed rather tastefully.

Nevertheless, the thought of posing without clothes on and be photographed scares most of us. To help you relax and be the best at your nude photography session, here are some simple, useful tips.

1. Prepare the night before or wake up earlier than usual and have a nice relaxing hot shower. This relaxes your body and mind. While you are at it, exfoliate, scrub, and moisturise your skin. You may need to shave or wax, and this better be done at night. Waxing, plucking, or shaving may leave your skin raw so these should be done hours ahead to allow your skin to recuperate. Although nude photography is not entirely about how flawless your skin is, it is a great idea to look at your best for the photoshoot. Preparing this way helps condition your mind and knowing you have a well groomed body makes you feel confident in front of the camera. Use a sheer moisturising lotion or shimmering body lotion to make your skin glow.

2. Exercise or work out days or weeks prior to your nude photography session. This helps tone your muscles and body. This also helps create shadows and contours on the body. On the day of the shoot itself, a quick workout is a great idea to help you liven up your mind and body. The increased blood flow on your body will give it a nice natural glow.

3. Opt to be photographed anonymously. Tell the photographer not to photograph your face, or take shots that show the sides of your face. Most of the time, a face looks much photogenic when turned away from the camera. It allows the lines on the jaws, the chin, and the bridge of the nose be captured. Unlike portrait photography, nude portraits are not entirely about the face. The focus of nude photography is the human body itself and how beautiful it looks in its natural form. Also, knowing that your face isn't showing in photos helps you focus on your posture or pose, rather than being conscious.

4. Relax and be confident. You can keep your poses simple if you are not accustomed to arching your body or doing poses that require too much flexibility. Be carefree and think about happy thoughts and beautiful memories.

On your nude photography session, condition your mind and convince yourself you are being photographed with clothes on, or think that no one else can see you. This helps you pose naturally because if you are uncomfortable, it will reflect in the photos. Artistically shot nude portraits look great for display in your house, or perhaps in a gallery or exhibit. The human body is a beautiful form of art and having it photographed is the best way to showcase it.

People in tropical areas of the world wore very little clothing or nothing at all until Europeans showed them a better way - get suited up and perspire more. In ancient Egypt Pharaoh Akhenaton and his beautiful wife Nefertiti gave a fillip to nudity through their promotion of sun worship. Greek athletes performed naked in their Olympic games. The Spartans were more brazen in extending it to everyday life.

The Western-dominated internet is now producing huge numbers of pornographic addicts all around the world, along with a ghastly child pornography epidemic. I have seen no claims that naked or semi-naked societies became addicted to displays of nudity or sought to exploit children.

From ancient times until the present there seem to have always been a few religious groups that felt nudity brought them closer to God. Wikipedia (article "Nudity in Religion") mentions the nude monks of the major sect of the Jain religion and adherents of the Hindu sect Naga sadhu among others. Apparently St. Hippolytus of Rome required candidates for Christian baptism by immersion (men, women and children) to be completely naked for the ceremony. And many people are familiar with the nude and semi-nude artworks and statues of Medieval times in churches, including the famous Michelangelo paintings in the Sistine chapel.

The Bible has its share of nudity. Indeed nudity crops up in three of the most significant events in biblical history. Right at the beginning the first human pair, Adam and Eve, were completely naked but they seem not to have noticed. According to the Genesis story they only became aware of their nudity and felt shame about it when they did the wrong thing. So very early in biblical history a link was made between guilt and nudity.

The second notable appearance of nudity in the Bible occurred when Jesus was nailed to a cross. He was, in harmony with standard crucifixion practice, stark naked. That fits in very neatly with the Christian gospel message that Jesus bore the sin and guilt of the whole world. Jesus, described in the New Testament as the last Adam, voluntarily bore the sin and spiritual nudity that the first Adam passed on to all mankind.

The third appearance of nudity in the Bible astonishingly occurs during the final battle of Armageddon, a conflict that is said to involve the whole world. The apocalyptic account of this battle is surpassing strange. During the description of the Armageddon conflict there is a blessing pronounced on anyone who "stays awake and keeps his clothes with him, so that he may not go naked and be shamefully exposed". (Revelation 16:12-16)

Here in this final climactic battle of earth's history the focus is entirely on the need to keep awake and to avoid being seen naked and ashamed like Adam and Eve at the beginning of biblical history. In the middle of a real battle it is doubtful if you would have a problem keeping awake. And you might have to be stripped naked in the event you are injured to have your wounds treated.

I am a beginner in nude sketching. This is my daunting account of my first experience in this endeavor.

I was late for class that day so I hurriedly climbed two flights of stairs to catch a seat in the gallery room jam-packed with wannabe artists. My mentor motioned me to the vacant seat in the front row down the gallery, so I obliged. When I reached my seat, I sat still for a while to catch my breath and prepare my drawing materials. I hardly noticed the glaring lights and the figure at the center of the gallery which appeared so negligible given the huge size of the room. I assumed the figure was the subject of the day's sketching lesson. As I raised my head to take a look at it, my jaw dropped.

Lo and behold! A live nude model was standing in all her naked glory. I thought it was a big leap from our previous "still life" session. I was quite tense so my charcoal pencils kept on dropping to the floor. My heart was thumping while trying to capture a proportional perspective of her nude figure. Since the seats were arranged in a circle, I got the rear view of her figure.

Generally speaking, I think it is easier to draw the rear view than the frontal view. The rear view has lesser details even if the quality of tone in the back muscles needs some extra work. Besides, I personally think the rear view leaves much to the aesthetic imagination, and is therefore, more interesting.

The nude model did pretty well in her stationary position, only taking a break for 10 minutes to stretch and walk around in her panties. Ah, the boys loved it while the girls were apathetic (or tried to be). The session lasted for almost an hour. At the end of the session, we gave the model a round of applause before she headed straight to the dressing room.

The next day, we had a male nude model for our subject but I think I did better in the female form. There's a great difference between drawing male and female nudes. In the female body, you draw a series of curves because the muscles are usually hidden by 80% fat. In the male body, there is a change of technique because the muscles are more defined.

I did not pursue nude sketching after these few sessions. I think it's one of the most difficult types of sketching to attempt. You can get away with drawing landscapes like trees, mountains and rivers because nobody knows how it looks in particular. But if you do a human figure incorrectly, everyone knows if there's something wrong with it, even those who know nothing about art. It's a similar case with portrait sketching which I also tried for some time using charcoal. I also discovered pastel painting which is my favorite medium because it is not so messy and wet as in watercolor or oil.

I am glad to have tried my hand at nude sketching. I know I still have a lot to improve on. The human body is an awesome art form that reflects our Creator's sublime ingenuity. Life drawing, particularly the nude form, is an artist's fitting gesture of appreciation and gratitude for this wonderful creation.
