HIGH HEELS AND HIGHER EXPECTATIONS


I thank whoever it is that instilled such a healthy adoration for beautiful clothing in my mother; and whoever else made her cherish the classics among the abundant ordinary. Because of both these qualities I have access to one of the most exclusive and vast collection of vintage (and other) pieces. This came in handy when it came to filming our video advertisement.

Because our concept was only born on the day of filming no one really had exactly the right outfit packed in and it became apparent that we would need to source clothing on location. Fortunately my mother doesn’t mind if we delve into her clothing collection, as long as everything is returned in good order. So for our 2 promiscuous party animals we found a yellow leather waistcoat, silk vest and a black coat. Our sophisticated women added to their outfits a lace vest and red knit jersey.

Heels, as for most women were not a problem and for some reason were the things we all remembered to pack :)

Before we left to start filming next door, we had so much fun helping each other get ready: doing makeup and hair and looking at ourselves in the mirror but as is telltale of our group, we first had supper and a few us took a deserved nap :) This time it really wasn’t our fault as the neighbours where the bar was, were out for the evening. Eventually at 11pm we trekked next door, heels and all (empty) alcohol bottles in hand!

Filming was hilarious and to share some of the experience with you, here are a few photos of the evening’s escapades :)

Here’s to fun, happiness and responsible alcohol use...
