On the nineteenth day of the LOVE Magazine Advent Calendar, Victoria's Secret Angel Alessandra Ambrosio removes her clothing and lingerie in front of her open windows as the shadowy la voisine—"the neighbor"—looks on from his own window. This advent video is monochromatic and grainy, much like the video the man across the alleyway is filming.
It would all be very film noir—the femme fatale, the mysterious man (villain or lover or both?)—except that the soundtrack is "The Day Before You Came" by ABBA, and no film can really achieve that level of dingy, doomed fatalism when ABBA is bopping along in the background.
So ABBA and Ambrosio carry us through Day 19.
It's less than a week until Christmas.
