Kanye West is gathering good karma! The rapper is auctioning off a pair of his own Nike Air Yeezy II sneakers for charity. The kicks are worn and signed by Kanye himself, so authenticity is guaranteed.

West will donate the proceeds to RE/CREATE New York, which will help with the ongoing Hurrican Sandy relief. Kanye won’t be the only celebrity doing this, as REM singer Michael Stipe is also giving up some collectibles to help out, also DJ/producer Skrillex who puts up his signed leather-sleeved jacket he once wore to the Grammys. Other participating celebs include Kate Moss, Selena Gomez, Kelly Osbourne, and Anne Hathaway.

RE/CREATE stated:

Like many New Yorkers, we were saddened by the devastation of Hurricane Sandy and motivated to help. To assist the ongoing relief and rebuilding efforts we are proud to present this auction of personal, one-of-a-kind items donated by prominent members of our creative community.

Don’t you love it when celebs give back?  We do!

The bidding starts on January 24th.

The Twitterverse has been buzzing with the rumor that pop sensation Beyonce Knowles is set to become the new face of fashion label H&M. Images of Beyonce on the set of a photo shoot in the Bahamas started to swarm the internet since Thursday morning, featuring her wearing a tropical-print bustier sitting on a pink beach chair.

The rumors were semi-confirmed by one of Beyonce’s dancers who tweeted:

First day of trial in the Bahamas! H&M all set… go!” To add to the suspense, the tweet has been deleted. A classic move to create curiosity and hype. Reps from H&M have yet to confirm nor deny anything about the photo shoot.

Well, we HAVE seen her in quite a lot of casual wear lately.

Do you think Beyonce will make a great star for H&M’s campaigns? We even think she should include her daughter, Blue Ivy!

Thoughts?

Saint Laurent Paris, formerly known as Yves Saint Laurent, is going for a younger (or slightly older) demographic ever since it changed its name and logo. The fashion house has also featured musician Tom Burke from Citizens!, which also marks the reign of ex Dior Homme creative director, Hedi Slimane.

Kicking off 2013, Slimane brings another musician into the Saint Laurent front: Beck. In the ad, Beck wears a chambray shirt, combined with a loose skinny tie, and the look is completed with a fringe suede jacket. In another picture, Beck wears a tuxedo which he pairs with a floppy fedora and sunglasses. For the women, British model Edie Campbell shows us how it is to be rock-chic.

Looks like Saint Laurent Paris’ message is clear: rock-and-roll-meets-couture is hot for 2013!

Do you think Saint Laurent Paris picked the right celebrity to represent its new collection?
