Marketing Monday - Liberty Scarf Email

Posted on 05:33 by Unknown
 
 
I recieved this email 2 weeks ago and intended to skim read it like most of my email subscriptions.  However upon glancing at it, I realised that it was different to all other product emails that I recieve  as it told the story of a girl and her Liberty Scarf throughout different stages in her life.    I was instantly hooked.
 
 
Although I have always admired the Liberty Scarf, I soon found myself wanting to be the girl in the scarf even more and linking it to success just like the email connotes.
 
 
Like all good stories, an element of romance was included which made me swoon.
 
 
And finally she goes for a job interview that is guarenteed to be successful. 
 
Bringing it all together, I love the fact that this modern woman is taking on the world in all aspects of her life and succeeding it it (especially in the fashion stakes).  Yes some would argue that a scarf probably didn't contribute much to her success but the item just being there is part of the experience and perhaps a lucky charm. 
 
Liberty's execution of the ad appeals to the young modern woman but also has that English style that we all love from the brand.  I'm hoping this style (not neccessarily a story for all communications) is extended over all marketing that they implement.  I'm impressed.

Burberry A/W 2013, I love you.

Posted on 11:53 by Unknown
"The Burberry show was amazing"
'But Burberry is for chavs.."

I am sick and tired of having this response to anything positive I say about Burberry.  Yes the brand image was extremely tarnished in the 2000s but give a British brand a chance! The Burberry Prorsum show is always my favourite of LFW due to the polished feel of the clothes and the show itself.  It shows clothes that I actually want to wear instead of seeing gowns and strange shapes on the runway that I don't have a chance of coveting.   Boy did the A/W 2013 show not disappoint.  I was obviously adoring the red shades and heart prints but I also found myself loving the tougher fringing on the coats, skirts and bags.  I think my favourite look is the jumper and pencil skirt combo as it's so laid back but so chic!  Time to swoon..




Oh look!  Michelle Dockery looking flawless outside the show!

The Reading List - Shoes, blog readers and a glitter DIY!

Posted on 11:06 by Unknown
Sometimes on an exhausted Saturday night you've just gotta watch Audrey.  

♥Spotted on Susie Lau at NYFW, these pastel shoes are to die for.  Anyone got a spare £115 for me?

♥I present to you..  493 gifs of Zooey Deschanel.  Don't say I never treat y'all.  

♥I'm currently in the process of getting business cards sorted and these are a great (and very creative!) inspiration.

♥Reading blogs can be hard work if you're saving them to your bookmarks and clicking them everyday.  Lifehacker has a simple guide to sorting yours out before your headache sorts you out.  (I'm a GoogleReader and Pocket user and they're heaven to use)

♥Valentine's Day may be over but I need not excuse to buy this heart shaped umbrella.

♥This article by The New York Times Style Magazine has been on everyone's lips over the last few weeks.  Join the debate - is the fashion outside the tents becoming more important than what's inside the tents?  For me, street style ruined fashion month during the 2013 S/S shows.  

♥Why build a closet when you could just use a bedroom?  Enough said.  

♥Obsessed with glitter?  Of course you are.  This easy tutorial for glitter flat shoes is adorable and makes me want to run out to buy red glitter! 



Watch this now.  

Oh and this, obviously.

Our favourite stylists are back! Premiere dates for The Rachel Zoe Project and It's A Brad Brad World.

Posted on 10:46 by Unknown

Our favourite guilty pleasure television is FINALLY back, and all on one night!  

The Rachel Zoe Project season 5 starts Wednesday 6th March at 9/8c on Bravo followed by It's A Brad Brad World at 10/9c.

I can't wait to see what they both have in store, especially if Rachel is styling Anne Hathaway's awards season and Brad is brand stylist for my favourite store, Kate Spade. I think the million pound question is: who would you want as your stylist? After much deliberation I still can't decide who I'd choose.  Rachel has the contacts and the amazing vintage and jewellery and Brad has a flawless way with colour that I covert myself.  The pressure is too much!

The Reading List - The most inspirational video ever, the guys from Mean Girls and Twitter attacks a NYFW show.

Posted on 10:39 by Unknown

Cara finally got a Vogue UK cover and it's amazing - hurray.

♥If you only watch one video this week, make sure it's this one about a 35 year old inspirational woman with terminal cancer living her dream in Paris.  Get some tissues.

♥ Tumblr page of (mostly) animal gifs is addictive and mesmerising, especially the ones from BBC Africa.

♥Just in case you were wondering, this is what the guys from Mean Girls are up to now.

♥Note to self: don't show an unfiltered Twitter feed as a backdrop at new York Fashion Week.  I feel REALLY bad for Rebecca Minkoff, not so much for her marketing department..

♥It's the Grammy's tonight and I am definitely not OK with Chris Brown attending let alone performing.

♥The Mindy Project is a surprisingly very good TV find for me this year, here's two reasons why you should watch it (and then tell me how much you love it).

♥A vending machine that dispenses rare books for $2?  Get me to Toronto pronto.

♥This week my mother told me three times in the space of 2 hours that Ryan Gosling has amazing eyes (we were watching The Notebook).  Here's an open letter from the women of the world to Ryan Gosling.

Now for the videos..

If you haven't seen Beyonce's SuperBowl performance you should be hanging your head in shame!  Watch it now silly!


And finally, I love marketing and social media so I was very excited when this video was shown in my E-Marketing lecture this week.  Social Media is huge, scary and exciting at the same time!


(If you're following me by email, you'll have to click through to my website to watch the videos.  What are you waiting for? Click!)

The Reading List - Getting your dream job, beautiful words and two artists you NEED to listen to.

Posted on 02:30 by Unknown
You should DEFINITELY buy yourself some daffodils this week.  These have given me a week of happiness for a £1! 
Sometimes you just want to read an amazing article on the internet to stimulate your brain or to relax.  This is where The Reading List comes in.  I read so many articles during the week, I thought it was about time I shared them all with you!  Every Sunday I'll be publishing a new list for inspiration, laughs and motivation for you all to read.  I don't know what will be coming up but I do know that it'll be full of beautiful images, stories, tips and probably a few good rants too! Let me know via the comments, email and Twitter what you think of them - let's start a conversation! 

This week's Reading List is packed with some articles I saved from last year that I think are still amazing now and some new ones!  Hit one of the videos below for your reading music!

♥ Effervescent, demure, opulent - What's your favourite word from this list of 100 beautiful words in the English Language?

♥Love looking at magazine styled work spaces? (I do!) Here's how you can make your desk look amazing.

♥This A-Z guide to landing your dream job in 2013 is super handy for anyone looking for a job.

♥One of my favourite articles in 2012 - Why Girl Power is back in comedy, science, technology, sport and much more!

♥Boring caravan turns into a pastel coloured paradise - I've never wanted to live in a caravan more! 

♥It's red, it's super cute and it's a valentine's gift that doesn't make me gag!  - Make you own leather heart coin purse

♥Schmidt from New Girl might be one of my favourite characters on TV at the moment - here's 40 gifs to brighten up your day.  (If you've watched the latest episode in the US, OMG!  ONLY IF you have seen it, please click here, enjoy, then freak out with me all over again!)

♥I find that January and February are the hardest months to get through, here's 150 ideas to put the light in your heart (50) and to do when you're feeling sad (100)

♥I can't stop listening to these new artists.  Gabrielle Aplin (The voice of the John Lewis Christmas ad) and Lucy Rose (who debuted her album in the autumn) make the perfect music to chill out to on the bus.  Be prepared to hear me shout about Gabrielle's new album in April.
