Beyonce in New H&M Campaign


H&M continues to build it's fast fashion brand and this season they have upped the ante by featuring singer Beyonce Knowles for it's summer campaign.  The singer shot the print ads in the Bahamas and looks radiant in all the photos.  The style and imagery are so reflective of Knowles own personal style.  H&M's head designer, Ann Sofie Johannson said that Beyonce actually had some input into the designs.

The pieces are a perfect blend of vintage, sensual, practical and fun.  Beyonce will be in print ads, billboards and television spots for the summer collection.  Beyonce said in H&M's press release, "I've always liked H&M's focus on fun and affordable fashion.  I really loved the concept we collaborated on to explore the different emotions of women represented by the four elements - fire, water, earth and wind.  It was a beautiful shoot on a tropical island.  It felt more like making a video than a commercial."


Spring's Black and White Trend


Spring 2013 has plenty of fashion trends to choose from.  One of the most notable is the black and white trend we are seeing everywhere.  It looks amazing on everyone and it's so easy to style because the two colours look great together.

White Obesessed

Christian Louboutin.

Go white.  It's a new season and what better way to freshen up your shoe wardrobe than with white.  Some are afraid of wearing a white shoe because they think it can be limiting.  But it's actually one of the most versatile you could wear this season.  

White captoe by Chinese Laundry.


Pick a white pump to wear with a classic suit for work.  They also look great with a pair of cropped pants or a slim pencil skirt.  Up the ante at night by wearing a steel captoe pump like the ones pictured above.  You'll find it in a range of brands from Kate Spade to Aldo and Chinese Laundry.

This season don't be afraid to put white on your feet.  If you do, be sure to get the right cleaners to keep them crisp and clean.
