Bungling Burberry

bungledburberry.jpgLast week, we watched the behind the scenes video for Burberry's ad campaign at least ten times.


We realized that as hard as we wished, we'd never wear that blue ruffled dress and dance side by side with our version of British royalty while Christopher Bailey looked on approvingly.

Instead, we got back to work and shared the video with you - and now we have to share this:

The Scotland Sun caught on to Burberry's prices and decided to bring its readers the look for less. Their fashion writer, Toni Jones, put together a list of high-street items, Burberry on a Budget, that when thrown together might resemble Burberry's Spring '08 looks.

But why is this so great? The part that made us want to laugh and cry at the same time is the photo accompanying the story. It's Burberry's newest ad with what we're afraid might be men playing both Lily and Agyness

It's like one of those "spot the difference" pictures gone horribly awry.

I visited The Scotland Sun's site...I think you have a point. Lolz.
Anyways, I like Burberry's new ad!

It's not the Scotland Sun, just the Sun. It's a UK-wide paper, not specifically Scottish. I prefer the man-Agyness to the real one, though she actually looks more like a drag version of Sarah Harding.
