Philippe licked up every suggestion and exclaimed, "Genius! Your readers are brilliant! Sex sells, Yann you are the man, Corey let's do it!"
I looked at the two of them through my trifocals, cleared my throat, pointed to Philippe and said, "Do it? With whom?"
Those two guys looked at me like I was French or something.
This is what happens when one watches too much of Sex and the City… it is beginning to feel like Sex and the Blog around here! And by the way Jenny N. I got your comment.
Most of your comments/ suggestions were HOT! Wow, maybe Playboy will use the ads too.
Philippe cannot pick one winner. He likes them all.
"Sure he does," exclaimed French Husband, "He is not the one half naked in bed, or cooking with nothing but an apron, a cookbook and a Varionets! If he was the model he would easily pick one."
"Honey," I reminded him, "You are the one who posed nude in an art class remember?"
"I needed money!" he laughed, though his face did not turn red.
Our son said, "Dad you need to pluck your eyebrows if you want to be a model."
Our daughter threw in, "And concealer."
"Photoshop can correct that," I added.
"Gee, and to think, I thought you guys were going to say I had to wear clothes! Nothing shocks me anymore!"
Well we will see if that is true …
Philippe would like if you would pick a winner or two. He has selected some of your
ideas (below) and wants you to tell him which ones would be best for his Varionet ad campaign.
Then he will have to bribe French Husband to do it…
and take me to a very nice restaurant…. Jules Verne on top of the Eiffel Tower will do.
If you can please pick one or two of the following, and add it to the comment section. Of course if there is one listed in yesterday's comments (or today's) that you like better by all means list it as your favorite.
Here are his favorites:
Tracy's
How about just eyes looking over laptop, or you lay on bed face up
with camera and FH looks down at you (sorta push up style) without shirt
of course and ponytail.
Shannon in Oregon's
At a
museum standing back and admiring the image and then up close reading
the plaque describing the work.
Georgie's
Your model
sitting at a beautifully set dining table at a certain home. Candles
lit. Gazing lovingly towards the photographer with a champagne glass in
his hand.
Star's
Reading a price tag as he picks out sexy lingerie (for you).
Celeste's
How 'bout
FH holding a schematic and peering into the Mosquito's engine. This
references the dual capability of the lenses.
Marie Noelle's
Sitting
or standing by a piano, trying to decode a piece of music.
Shelley at This White Shed's
The shot is taken in front
of FH with a woman (you if you can arrange the shot thusly) standing in
front of him (camera is behind her) and removing his glasses….or is
she putting them on? The look on his face is of total
anticipation…all we see is the back of her head and her hands. This
provides a clear shot of the glasses, and implies that they make one
even sexier.
Danna
Shot
taken from the end of a bed …all white sheets, a bit tousled ….where
there is a shirtless man wearing the glasses reading a news
paper….only he is actually looking over the top of the paper at a
woman. We only see her from the back perhaps unhooking her brassiere or something like that.
It is a seductive photo without being inappropriately raunchy.
Demonstrates the guy looking at something 2 feet in front of him and
also 5 feet in front of him at the same time. Plus, it implies that he
won't miss anything with THESE glasses….and that he will still be a
desirable man even in glasses.
Christine Allen's
Many different eyeglasses
while trying to decide which pair will work for what he is about to read
(on his head, hanging from neckline of shirt, hanging from his mouth,
shirt pocket, etc
Marcie's
French
Husband in the bathtub reading
a produce ad and wearing the glasses.
He could be looking fruit, something funny and unexpected.
Catherine's
When
asked what she wore in bed, Marilyn Monroe answered, "Why, Channel No.
5, of course."
On a similar note, one could imagine FH with nothing but the sexy
Varionet and the forbidden "apple' (computer, i.e.)
Jackie's
These
glasses are BRILLIANT! I cannot wait to get a pair…I suggest pix that
illustrate the glasses "distance" capability-because:
a) it stands out as different
b) it is what people need and want
i.e., looking at a subway map (on the wall in the subway,) reading signs that are too far away for cheaters, of
course Yann should take his shirt off for these photos;) Does he own a
speedo?
Laure's
Browsing at a brocante, reading those tiny price tags or old
manuscript……
Holding architectural plans while standing in front of some new
construction………
Lorelei's
Perhaps French Husband shaving? peering into a beautiful, antique
mirror?
Evelyn's
How
about FH straddling his motorcycle reading a map??
For my prize…forget the glasses, send French Husband!
______ A serious thank you…
Philippe plans to send ten pair of glasses. One pair to the different winners and to some of those who will comment here today.
