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!

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

    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!

    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?
