Wolfmother

My favourite Chanel advert ever, starring Estella Warren.
I know it's the wrong time of year for me to post this, but I couldn't resist how it makes me think of long for wintery cold nights and Christmastime memories...

Jeanie of the lamp

I don't have many memories of Barneys from when I was in New York. To be quite honest, whenever I was in those massive department stores I was usually just trying as hard as possible to avoid the sales people diving on me like vultures on a carcass, but less meat more Chanel perfume. I never really shopped there and certainly wasn't browsing jeans or thinking the store was particularly innovative.

That said, Barneys have released a catalogue for their new denimwear entitled 'denim co-op catalogue'. It's available to view online here!
(am I the only one who misses having hard copies of these things..?!), and I really like it.

We're talking Cole Mohr, Ash stymest, Eniko Mihalik, Hanne Gaby Odiele, Ranya Mordanova, Tao Okamoto, rainbow and candyfloss hair and making jeans look less..well, boring. How can you say no?

Something wicked this way comes

Oh my.
Amazing, and nothing less than what I would expect from the McQ house.
Alexander McQueen Fall-Winter 2009 Ad Campaign, starring Alice Gibb and shot by Craig McDean.

A tale of two sisters

Despite the fact that I am openly a magazine addict (it's all I buy besides day pass cards around London), I have yet to see any Rodarte ads.
Luckily for me (and my deminishing mulah) they have surfaced online, so I can lust after the Fall lines in their airbrushed glory from the comfort of my own home...

Marc meets Daisy

Victoria Beckham has been replaced by Daisy Lowe for the upcoming S/S 09 ads, shot by of course Juergen Teller.

The ads keep to the Jacobs-advert mantra of selling clothes by not really selling clothes i.e. featuring ads for clothes without actually showing them. This goes to show the strength of the Marc Jacobs brand, and also the fact that using racy ads sells better than showing clothing in a flattering light.

The use of Daisy also brings to light her strong standing within the industry. She has recently fronted the Agent Provocateur campigns and she is set to feature in Spring 09 campigns such as Pringle and DKNY.

The campign has proved to be less controversial than Cole Mohr in drag and Victoria popping out of giant bags, and Daisy can definately do controversial (kinky i-D shoot with her boyfriend anyone?). More images are bound to be released so watch this space...

Yo....is that sushi?!

Bringing the term meals on wheels to a new level!
This is an ad campaign for a sushi restaurant, note the teensey orange banner!
