Pinterest Reveals Fall 2025 Trends & AI Push
Pinterest outlines Fall 2025 trends driven by nostalgia and creativity, with a revival of 90s and 2000s aesthetics across fashion, home decor, and beauty. Secondhand fashion and vintage styles are emphasized, along with Art Deco interior ideas, grunge-inspired makeup, and pixie cuts. Travel interest centers on Europe, notably Greece, while food trends feature creative focaccia. The piece also highlights Pinterest’s AI-driven enhancements, including automatic collages and deeper trend insights, and notes the opening of a Zürich Engineering Excellence Hub to advance AI and shopping infrastructure. It quotes Ben Wood on Pinterest's shopping orientation and the impact of Performance+, a 2024 ad tool enabling dynamic campaigns and precise targeting. Brands are advised to translate trends into campaigns, involve communities through pop culture references, and use Pinterest search volume and engagement as early indicators for content and product planning.

Ad Council PSA Reveals New Motherhood Struggles
The Ad Council has launched 'What's Her Secret?', a new suite of public service announcements aimed at encouraging new and expecting mothers to prioritize their mental health. The campaign, part of the broader 'Love, Your Mind' initiative, highlights the often-hidden struggles of early motherhood, such as sleep deprivation and emotional distress, and directs women to resources at LoveYourMind.com/moms. Created pro-bono by Mischief USA, the PSAs feature a group of women discussing motherhood while one mother's internal chaos is visualized. The campaign cites statistics showing that one in five mothers experiences postpartum depression or anxiety, yet three-quarters do not receive treatment. The PSAs will run nationwide in English and Spanish across broadcast TV, online video, out-of-home, radio, and digital platforms, with donated media support from partners including Amazon Ads, Fuse Media, iHeartMedia, Kargo, Pinterest, and Reddit.

Car Apps Share Extensive Data with Tech Companies
A study by Northeastern University and Consumer Reports analyzed 21 vehicles from 17 automakers, including GM, Ford, Rivian, Tesla, and Toyota, and 30 companion apps, uncovering widespread data sharing with tech and advertising companies. Nineteen of the 21 vehicles transmitted data to at least one third party, and seven apps shared sensitive information such as VINs, emails, phone numbers, and precise locations with tracking and marketing firms. Pairing a vehicle with its app roughly doubled exposure to ad and tracking companies. Data flows to Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Pinterest, Snap, and Yahoo enable detailed user profiles that could be resold to insurers or banks. Most automakers deflected blame, but Honda improved practices by directing its vendor Amplitude to delete geolocation data and stop collecting it. Users have limited ability to prevent these data flows without sacrificing convenient features.
