Gabriella Cilmi- 'Sweet About Me'.



This is the official video for 'Sweet About Me' by Gabriella Cilmi. The entire video is based in what appears an abandoned waarhouse-type space, with a mixture of performance footage, and snippets of narrative in the same location. There are many close up shots of the instruments, band members, and of the artist herself. This emphasizes the "all about the music" ephos many artists of the Indie genre maintain. There are also close up shots of the artist herself, and what she is wearing, including her shoes, and the multiple necklaces around her neck. The style of items of clothing she is wearing appear to be vintage-inspired, particularly her jewellery, which creates the image that she is individual, and unique, and pays attention to the small details in what she wears. I think this style of jewellery, including necklaces with charms, would be a good thing to use when styling the artist for my music video. Below are some pictures of similar necklaces I found in the online stores for Urban Outfitters and Topshop, which often focus their collections on vintage inspired clothing.
