procrastination leads to inspiration…

You know when you really SHOULD be doing something but just can’t seem to get it together :( today is one of those days.  Unfortunately, the internet is NO help.  With so many interesting things to see and read about at your fingertips –> focusing is nearly impossible.

I should be hunting down financial aid right now, but instead am admiring/tracking down these FABULOUS Stella Mccartney Ads (from the past three seasons).  Her work is genius – and so are her advertisements.  Perfect combination of color, art, and fashion. SO many details to examine, it reminds me of a collage!

For Spring, Stella McCartney left Bambi in the woods for something nearer and dearer to her heart: Lucky, her pet Dalmatian. “I love the way it’s very graphic and soft at the same time, due to its double exposure,” said McCartney when describing the photo of Lucky, which was taken by her mother, Linda McCartney, in ’76. Combine that with the magical work of Fab model of 2009, Natalia Vodianova, and photogs Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, and you have a whimsical masterpiece. The opposing elements between Stella’s designs and the black and white backdrop is eye catching and interesting.

Stella McCartney’s Fall ’09 ad campaign is like a scene out of a Disney cartoon. That’s because, along with model Sigrid Agren, it features the adorable Bambi. “We wanted to have some fun. The clothes in the campaign are looking quite fierce, and we wanted to contrast them with the innocence of Bambi,” the designer said. The ad, which debuts in magazines in September, was shot in a forest in Worcestershire; Bambi and gang were added later in the studio. So why Bambi? “I’m a huge Bambi fan, and the film reminds me of my mum.” Aw. What do you think of Stella’s Fall ad?
