&lt;p&gt;Interestingly, I think that the ads for MAN generally work better than those for WOMAN.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I do really like the &lt;em&gt;‘European cool’&lt;/em&gt; aesthetic.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://ycnadvertising.tumblr.com/post/3897552278</link><guid>http://ycnadvertising.tumblr.com/post/3897552278</guid><pubDate>Wed, 16 Mar 2011 08:24:41 -0400</pubDate><category>French Connection</category><category>The Woman</category><category>Woman</category><category>advertising</category><category>cool</category><category>fashion</category></item><item><title>French Connection No Shoes ad.

&lt;p&gt;Like &lt;a href="http://ycnadvertising.tumblr.com/post/3897394522/diesel-spring-summer-2010-video-catalogue-by"&gt;Diesel&lt;/a&gt;, French Connection has found a perfect balance of humour and sophistication with this series of The MAN.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Much better, and more appropriate for this project, than any FCUK ads.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://ycnadvertising.tumblr.com/post/3897460817</link><guid>http://ycnadvertising.tumblr.com/post/3897460817</guid><pubDate>Wed, 16 Mar 2011 08:14:00 -0400</pubDate><category>Advert</category><category>Man</category><category>No Shoes</category><category>The Man</category><category>advertising</category><category>french connection</category><category>fashion</category><category>cool</category></item><item><title>Diesel Spring Summer 2010 Video Catalogue.By Anomaly &amp; Stink...</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/u5-NrzZp0R8?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.diesel.com/ahundredlovers/"&gt;Diesel Spring Summer 2010 Video Catalogue.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;By &lt;a href="http://anomaly.com/"&gt;Anomaly&lt;/a&gt; &amp; &lt;a href="http://www.stinkdigital.com/"&gt;Stink Digital&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Music: &lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/josepxorto"&gt;Josep&lt;/a&gt;- &lt;em&gt;A Hundred Lovers&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A cross between an advert, a catalogue and a music video, this is an excellent way to show the overall style of the brand without focusing on particular products. It shows the humour in the tone of the brand and the setting shows a friendly, social atmosphere which could be appropriate for my solution.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It does not take itself seriously without ever being silly.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://ycnadvertising.tumblr.com/post/3897394522</link><guid>http://ycnadvertising.tumblr.com/post/3897394522</guid><pubDate>Wed, 16 Mar 2011 08:07:00 -0400</pubDate><category>Diesel</category><category>video</category><category>catalogue</category><category>Anomaly</category><category>Stink Digital</category><category>Josep</category><category>A hundred lovers</category><category>advertising</category><category>promo</category></item><item><title>Disaronno &amp; Ginger Ale spot.

&lt;p&gt;Disaronno is identified in the brief as a similar drink that is enjoyed by the target market. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think this style of ad, which shows an example of how to drink the product , could be used to promote Glayva. However, saying “Glayva &amp; Ginger Ale” would be enough (perhaps alongside a photograph) and I should not patronise the audience by demonstrating how to make something so simple. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://ycnadvertising.tumblr.com/post/3897177399</link><guid>http://ycnadvertising.tumblr.com/post/3897177399</guid><pubDate>Wed, 16 Mar 2011 07:43:41 -0400</pubDate><category>Disaronno</category><category>Ginger Ale</category><category>Glayva</category><category>alcohol</category><category>advertising</category><category>tv</category><category>spot</category><category>mixing</category><category>drink</category></item><item><title>
