Friends & Fashion is BACK! In this category of the blog I put my friends in the spotlight - the shy ones and the crazy ones - to share their . I've done it with my best friends but since I went H.A.M. with the blog I got to know so many interesting people, thanks to fashion.
This month we have a special guest on Friends & Fashion : Jill De Greef , photographed by the one and only : Thomas Vanhoyweghen.
Have you met Jill. You might have seen her on the latest tv-show on Vijf TV ( that's only when you live in Belgium). Jill is a high-school friend. I only remember laughter and jokes in class with Jill. Remember I told you I was in a catholic school ? Well, we sure had a lot of fun back then at the Sint-Ludgardis School in Antwerp.
After graduating we lost all contact. A couple of years past by and suddenly we kept bumping into each other at events and parties. So every time we reunite we make sure to catch up have and a have drink or too. I grabbed the opportunity at an Issey Miyake fashion-event downtown to ask Jill to be featured next on Friends & Fashion and she kindly said yes.
When the Brotographer Thomas came up with this charming location I was so glad. Coming up with new locations ain't easy when you take photos everywhere. We took Jill to the beautiful private mansion for the special photoshoot. Where she was about to be #StyledByJon and be glammed up by Monera. What made it even more exciting was the fact that Jill's camera crew came filming during the photo session.
