Bisbee, Arizona

Kate Spade

I was so excited when this Kate Spade ad campaign debuted
a couple years ago...

Kate Spade

I spent six years in Arizona before heading to California...

Kate Spade

And one of my friends grew up in the small town of Bisbee. (And I'm certain she would find the gold jacket and big blue flower quite smart!)

I can't wait to see what the new Kate Spade ads look like this fall. (I usually tear them out of Vogue and stash them in a folder.) Have you seen Kate Spade's Behind the Curtain website? It's one of my favorites!

I hope you have a lovely Monday! What do you have planned this week?

I had a home in Tucson for 2 years. There is something very special about the Arizona desert that I love. Those photos take me back to the magical feeling of the Arizona desert. That ad campaign is beatifully shot. Thanks for sharing Kate's site. I will check it out now!
Love,
Henri

I adore Bisbee...there's no place like it when you're in the mood for taking vintage photos. I have actually roadtripped there specifically for that purpose! If only it weren't such a LOOOOOOOOONG drive from Colorado!

The yellow line image may have been shot for an ad, but it's a work of art. Thanks!

While I think I'm more a New Mexico boy than an Arizona chico there is something very intriguing to me about Bisbee...??? Never been but would like to visit. In a little Kate Spade number even? Well, Tina, I think I'll leave that up to you. ;)

Happy Monday!

Oh wow, these pictures make me wish I lived in Arizona, haha. This week is going to be me trying to be creative with the junk around my house. Wish me luck!

I love all of Kate Spade's vibrant ads - fun 'stories' within each photo!

Dumbwit Tellher said...

Kate's ads just make my soul leap. They are such a throw back to the 60's; but also current at the same time. Love the old Volvo in the one shot! Hoping to get a lot done this week; hope yours will be a great one!

Oh, I love the juxtaposition of the initial shot!

I was sooo in love with that campaign too! Wish I could naturally dress like that everyday, ya know?

Christina said...

How funny you post this! I was just in Bisbee two weeks ago and it was SO LOVELY! I stayed at the Shady Dell Trailer Park too. :)

The Clever Pup said...

While I love the photographs themselves - I am deeply jarred by the young model. Is she playing dress-up or are we adult women supposed to emulate someone who is plainly 14 or 15?

this is my favorite kate spade campaign EVER. in fact, i've had the page with the packed car on my wall ever since i tore it out of a magazine several years ago. makes me wanna hit the road!

Oh yes. I heart Kate Spade.

Love that blue corsage -- very SJP in Sex and the City!
