Blog # 9 - Coach creating hype!


Just in time for the holiday season...
Coach, the luxury handbag company, has branched out and is becoming a lifestyle brand. Not only are they going back to some original ways and styles in leather handbags, Coach is also revamping in many other ways. The company has been incorporating new features to become more of a ‘lifestyle’ brand, some of which include sunglasses, small leather goods, scarves and hats, perfume, shoes and much more as time progresses. As we know, Coach has been around for a long time, but with this boost, the company is also bringing in their forces and getting the brand out there. This is being done with digital videos, ones found on YouTube and also commercials found on their website. One in particular, announced by WWD on November 16th, is that Karmin will be joining a campaign with Coach in which they will produce an original video to promote the holiday collection. With those who are hyped to see the collection and those just simply fans of Karmin, this will be a step in a great direction for both of whom are in the fashion industry.

Coach also has used social media and networking to create a way for clients to stay in touch and come back for more. The use of Coach’s Facebook page has become a benefit to many customers. The ability to get many coupons, like 25% off your purchase every so often, has led many to utilize the page and get into the newest looks by Coach.

Blog # 8 - Lookbooks

Blog Post # 8 - H&M Lookbook


I loved this H&M lookbook for Fall 2012. It featured the women's
collection and did an amazing job with it. Displaying the new clothes and trends 
was clear and on point with the simple backdrop to set the focus on the models 
and their wardrobes. I felt H&M  also made their accessories and jewelry a huge 
focal point and zoomed in on them throughout the lookbook. I preferred this type 
of digital display of what they had to offer because it was calm and clean cut 
with the music and the background. It allowed their featured merchandise to be 
the focus and it made a fabulous presentation.
