EPIC. Diesel are continuously #winning with their advertising campaigns and this latest one is no exception. The photography, styling, post processing, the genuine ‘raw‘ feel to this lookbook is absolutely dope. The stance of the guy above reminds of Dragonball Z, don’t you think so? like when the Sayans powered up. This guy obviously powered up a little too much and all that blood is a result of it. Seriously though, major props to the stylist and make-up artist on this shoot, they’ve pulled it off brilliantly. The whole Spartan masculinity vibe can certainly be seen within these testosterone-filled advertisements. The collection features fashion photographers, architects, casting director and more. One thing all these men have in common = a pair of Diesel jeans. Have a gander at the imagery on the reverse.

Who remembers the Va Va Voom advert from the early 00′s? Ever since watching that advert I have been using and abusing my favourite French phrase from it ‘je ne sais quoi’. Actually it’s probably the only Français phrase I know as I studied German in school. Yes Ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen. I don’t honestly remember any of the other Renault Clio adverts apart from the ones that featured living Arsenal legend & God-like footballer, Thierry Henry. Can you tell he’s my favourite footballer of all time from that sentence? If not I can go crazy with the superlatives. They’ve brought him back for this new campaign featuring Va Va Voom queens, Dita Von Teese and Rihanna. More on the reverse.

In less than 3 weeks time I’ll be attending a wedding, ya’ll probably thinking what’s so special about you attending a wedding? well this time I’m attending a wedding of a friend’s, I’m clearly getting old. 23 and my friends are already getting married. I’ve already got my suit prepared for the day and surprisingly my look is very similar to that of the guy featured in this dope Heineken advert but I highly doubt I’ll manage to make a similar entrance to him. I haven’t seen most of my friends in around 3 years so this wedding will be a good way to catch up, I’ve changed a lot since then haha. This new Heineken campaign is all about making the perfect entrance…in style – it’s a cinematic masterpiece. More after the cut.

A German job agency called Jobsintown.de has won several international prizes for their creative and innovative ad campaigns. One of which I stumbled upon recently entitled Lifes Too Short for the Wrong Job. They have used a variety of vending machines and covered one complete side with their cleverly depicted posters that show men and women looking distressed and cramped working inside the machine to provide you with your beverage. Check out the pics below.

At 10:15 this following advert will air on over 80 digital and terrestrial television channels across the country but you get to see it exclusively online before then. Over the past few years T-Mobile has re-invented flash mobbing by taking it to a whole new level – first with the Liverpool Street station stand still then over at Trafalgar Square with a massive sing-a-long. Now they’ve taken it to a whole new level in my opinion, the best one yet by taking it upon themselves to welcome back hundreds of travels at Heathrow’s Terminal 5 in their own special way. Look out for the Indian guy ‘Oh ma Gad I can’t believe it’ advert on the flipside.

Sportswear giant Nike have released 2 dope commercials in the past 24 hours – one featuring the so-called selfish traitor, LeBron James and the other featuring his Miami Heat team mate, Dwyane Wade. The first advert is pure genius from W+K; if you haven’t been keeping up with Basketball then you won’t know that LeBron switched from Cleveland Cavaliers to Miami Heat over the summer, a lot of people expected him to move to NYC. By a lot, I mean even Mayor Bloomberg launched a campaign to get the star playing in his state. More after the cut.

University has kicked started again so I’ve been bombarded with adverts in class so this post features more adverts than the usual. If ya’ll are lacking inspiration then these should certainly provide. It’s hard to be unique and original these days but one brainwave can change all that.
