Erykah Badu for Givenchy is Everything You Imagined and More.

First of all, Erykah Badu is my baby mama and a certified queen! I love her gorgeous face. Is she even wearing makeup at all? I mean, who knows.

She does this campaign so much justice with her natural beauty and grace. I definitely appreciate the way they shot these looks. Givenchy tends to be so hard and edgy, but they softened it up this time with ethnic accessories like turbans and bold jewelry. This Fall 2014 collection is supposed to draw from African and Japanese influences, and I'm so on time for all of it.

Look out for these shots in the French publication Purple Magazine.

What do you think about Givenchy's latest campaign with Miss Badu? 

Happy Socks' New Ad Campaign is Awesome...ly Naked.

You better work, bitch. *Britney voice

Yes, they took it there. What better way to show off your socks than to wear nothing else. The new Fall/ Holiday campaign from Happy Socks uses fabulous dancers in fabulous poses to highlight their ever adorable socks. The campaign has vibrant, stunning photos shot by David LaChapelle. I think the ads definitely give off a light-hearted, "happy" feel.

On October 31, they're also going to release a short film that accompanies the ad campaign.

Beyonce's H&M Campaign.

So I guess earlier this year, it was speculated that Beyonce was shooting a campaign with H&M in the Bahamas, and voila, tis true. The image above is the first of many we'll be seeing of Beyonce. H&M will be releasing promo photos, print ads, and commercials with the mega star featuring a new Beyonce track "Standing on the Sun" to be sold on hm.com . She'll be sporting key summer pieces from H&M's collection, which drops early May.

Yasiin Bey, better known as Mos Def, has a new role in this game.
Watch him as he stars in Louis Vuitton's Muhammed Ali campaign commercials.

 

I can't help but think of "Miss Fat Booty", "Umi Says", and "Respiration" from his Black Star days.

Mulberry and Monsters.

Mulberry's beautiful, whimsical shoot for their Fall 2012 Ad Campaign.
Model Lindsey Wixson was shot alongside what looks like beasts from "Where the Wild Things Are."
She's carrying the Del Rey, Maisie and the new embellished Alexa bags. The campaign will break in The New York Times on June 24, and then in the August issue of U.S. and U.K. Vogue.

"Shot by Tim Walker in Blackheath Forest in Surrey, England, the campaign was inspired by creative director Emma Hill’s themes of dark fairy tales and fantasy travels. “The campaign is an interpretation of dreams and fears,” said Ronnie Cooke Newhouse, who art directed the campaign with her company, House + Holme. Walker said: “Ever since I was a little boy, I hoped to see a monster in the woods. Now, we all get to.”"
