{ VIDEO } the malibu dream

February 7, 2012

Over the course of collaborating on THIS SERIES, Jamie and Kevin and I poured through our collective, treasured references. We reminisced about the images that inspired our current careers ~ what we loved about them, what we dreamed of turning them into. We listened to one playlist on repeat until its melodies intertwined with the visions in our heads. We cuddled up over champagne in the evenings to watch old movies and music videos. We remembered why we love what we do.

We decided to challenge ourselves to make something more than we’d planned. We decided to try something uncertain, to aspire to make something beautiful and memorable and slightly surreal and undeniably intimate. We wanted to tell a different sort of story than we ever had before. And so we made this.

    Lovely video. I love your style.

    I’ve been following your blog for awhile now and each time I look at you I think “She reminds me of Jessica Stroup.” She plays Erin Silver on 90210. Either way, you’re both beautiful.

    You remind me a little of Marilyn Monroe in this video… beautiful and hunting- innocent yet seductive shot in a gritty film noir meets voyeuristic fashion .  Also- the choice of music is quite outstanding. Great job. 

  • Placelesstraveled

    Wow, this video is absolutely amazing. Perfection, really. It’s done so amazingly well. I’m in awe.

  • Hmmm

    This video was beautifully done, but I’m sorry to say that the topless shots made me lose respect for you a little bit. I always thought you were a classy chick, but maybe not so much anymore. Quite tasteless and unnecessary, really. 

  • Jessie Ning

    you look absolutely sexy and classy. love this video! x

  • not a fan

    I’m sorry, but I liked most things about this video except for the boob shots. I visit your blog daily because you typically exude class with tasteful sexiness. But not anymore, sorry. I just think you crossed the line a little bit. Would have been wayyy sexier and much more tasteful without the nudity. You’re not quite as great as I thought you were.

  • Sara Valente

    I love it!!!

  • Dea Soldati

    I do the same comment that I did on Jamie’s blog. 
    One word, WOw! It’ a great job!

  • Brie

    I knew there would be comments about the nudity and I do see a couple. I’ll admit I was surprised by it at first, just because I had you pegged as rather conservative in that respect. (I had a “Did I just see what I thought I saw?? moment.) But it didn’t offend me or put me off. The video is very sensual and the nudity is in quick flashes and I think it actually adds to the overall feel of the video, like stolen moments.

  • Vassiliki

    It is a masterpiece!!! You looked simply stunning!Love,love,love it!!

  • Laura Tedeschi Arte

    you are a great inspiration for me, you charme is somthing special

    Wow!!!! I have enjoyed your blog for sometime now. I love how it has improved and your ideas keep getting bigger and better.
    This video tops the charts…it is chilling. I love absolutely everything about it. I am KW #1 fan too, so getting to be in her Malabu house was a bonus treat for me!!!. You know how to work the camera. It is fun seeing you in live action!!!!. The nudity is well done and it added to the video. And, BTW, I loved the boob shot!!! So sexy! People need to stop being so judgmental and prude!!!!
    Bravo Kelly!!!
