A POLAROID STORY x FRESHCOTTON x BLEND MAGAZINE

Oktober 2010,

 

Hello troopers,

The year is coming to it’s end, and so is this little blog’s content…

Don’t worry. I still have a few small surprises in store, but I’ll leave that for next week.

For now, I wanted to share this little press feature with you all.

A while ago I was invited to come to AMSTERDAM (gotta love my AmsterDajumn! troopers) to participate in a little experiment and make an editorial for BLEND MAGAZINE together with 5 other bloggers :

Dennis from GET YOUR PLANE RIGHT ON TIME -  Alvar from SWURDIN - Cindy from COME OVER TO THE DARK SIDE WE HAVE CANDY – Serena from BEAUTYLAB & the notorious Branko from well… DENNIS BRANKO

I was the only Belgian gal invited amongst the other fellow invitees, so I was pretty nervous.

We were asked to construct a complete editorial for one of my favorite Dutch magazines called BLEND MAGAZINE with garment from a renowned Dutch online store called FRESHCOTTON.

Together with my bestie SABINE PEETERS who ended up helping out on the shoot, we travelled to Amsterdam.

It turned out to be a very long and challenging day and I even unexpectedly ended up in the model department replacing a model that didn’t show up. Oh well…

Here’s the visual recap of that day….

Thank you FRESH COTTON & WE ARE FIRST to invite me and make me a part of this experiment. I’m very grateful to meet new people and it turned out to be a learning experience.

Special shout-out to my new favorite set boys ever: DENNIS, ALVAR & RORY.

Love,

Ouni
