This is an ad for Essie’s new Flying Solo collection. I think that the advertiser is targeting single women and hinting that it is completely normal to travel solo. Additionally, when wearing this nail polish you will feel ready to conquer the world. The color scheme is very posh and classy, which may make you feel similarly when wearing this nail polish. I also noticed the product placement. First, this ad is from this month’s Cosmopolitan where the primary audience is female. Second, I do not think that it is a coincidence that this advertisement is placed next to an article titled, “I went on Meghan Markle’s vacation.” Meghan Markle has become a dream role model for a lot of women in that she became royalty and was able to actually get the happily ever after that so many little girls read about in their youth. Honestly, upon viewing this ad, I immediately thought to myself, I could really use a mani/pedi. My second thought was, where is my passport because I really need to get more stamps in there. For a brief moment, I felt empowered. I am single and sometimes fear traveling alone, especially abroad, but after seeing this ad I felt the need to book my next solo trip. I even researched the safest countries for single women to travel. I think this ad did an excellent job of advertising this product. I do not see any room for misinterpretation especially since the product is front and center.

Moral of the Story

Every fiction story is made with a purpose for the moral of the story to be analyzed. The reason for analyzing the moral of the story is because you want to get something as in a purpose from reading the story. Analyzing the moral gives you an opportunity to learn things that you need to know but never knew before. Point of views are a linking component that follow up with a strong reaction. Readers either like or dislike and agree or disagree with a story’s moral content. A person’s point of view provides their connection to the story positively and negatively. Some people despise characters and some people idolize them according to their lifestyle, and this is able to prove someone’s true character. Ideologies all another linking component that affects the way we relate to narratives. 

D. H. Lawrence says that the value of fiction is seeking to alienate you. By saying this, he was bragging and saying that if you did not understand what he was saying, then you don’t care about novelists. He believes that novelists are not recognized and appreciated as they should be for what they do. Novelists do not have a direct monetary value as soon as they graduate because humanities define these ideologies as not useful. D. H. Lawrence uses manipulation of language to go over and beyond just in order to prove his point. Lawrence believes that we need to read novels because they benefit us with imagination that we never knew before.
