Blindfolded Kids Try to Recognize Their Moms in This Lovely, Smash-Hit Mother's Day Ad

Are you unique enough that your child could pick you out of a lineup by touch alone?

The charm-bracelet pushers over at Pandora Jewelry have just released The Unique Collection, but you won’t see much jewelry in this two-minute spot by Grey New York. Instead, you can watch them prove how every woman is unique, and try not to cry, as kids are blindfolded and asked to pick out their moms by touch alone.

The children, ages 3-9, touch rings and bracelets, hair and noses. Check out the video to see how they do.

Even more touching is the worry on each mom’s face as she waits to see if her child would recognize her, followed by tears of joy when they do. It underscores how irreplaceable our moms are, and how important it is to them that we know them well—particularly on days like Mother’s Day. (Hint, hint, buy her some personalized jewelry.)

Though the video stars moms and has been released well before Mother’s Day (it already has more than 14 million views on Facebook and 7 million on YouTube), Pandora’s call to action wisely tells people to celebrate the woman in their heart—noting that all women are unique, whether they’re a mom or not.

It’s also a not so subtle hint to her significant other, because c’mon, that 3-year-old isn’t paying for the bracelet himself.



Tiffany's Gorgeous New Ad Tells Many Love Stories but Asks Only One Question

The real-life gay couple from Tiffany & Co.’s recent print ad return in this spot from Ogilvy & Mather featuring various duos on the brink—or in the process—of getting engaged.

Part of the jeweler’s “Will You?” campaign, it’s a sweet spot, in tune with the times, celebrating diversity and true love as simple facts life. (The 75-second ad shows an interracial couple, too.) According to the client, the campaign acknowledges the “variety of forms” found in modern romance, and positions its rings as “the first sentence of the story that a couple will write together.”

The progressive campaign has generated lots of mostly positive media play—Miley Cyrus called it “badass”—though some critics say it doesn’t push the envelope enough, while others take Tiffany to task for casting only attractive couples.

Societal issues aside, the spot shines in its attention to the daily details of affection: sharing a quiet drink or private joke, making gentle fun of a parter’s foibles, fixing the buttons on a lover’s shirt. Such scenes remind us of the priceless commitment a Tiffany ring represents.

Cinematography by Maiko Takeda

Pour son travail de fin d’études, l’artiste Maiko Takeda a créé une série de cols, de chapeaux, bracelets et de corsets pour son projet « Cinematography » dont l’originalité réside dans le fait que chaque pièce de vêtement reflète une ombre et une image sur le corps de la mannequin, éclairé par un projecteur.

Alabama Jeweler Is Pretty Sure Your Mom Wants ‘ARSE’ for Mother’s Day

Looking for a Mother's Day gift with character? Have you considered some nice arse? A friend passed along this head-scratcher of a print ad from a local jeweler in my Alabama hometown. Hard to believe someone didn't notice before it went to press, but maybe America's love affair with "Britishisms" hasn't made its way down here yet.
