Beyoncé


Without warning, Beyoncé just dropped a brand new 14 track record and it comes with 17  provocative videos. BEYONCÉ, is a powerful visual album by Mrs Carter, shot from New York City to Paris and Sydney to Rio de Janeiro. The self-titled fierce feast features work from directors Terry Richardson, Hype Williams, Jonas Åkerlund and Pierre Debusschere, as well as Beyoncé herself, who also directs the installments for Rocket, Blue and Jealous. Look out for the bonus video for Grown Woman, with Kelly and Michelle, and appearances from hot models Joan Smalls and Jourdan Dunn in Yoncé. Musical collaborations come from Mr Carter, obviously and Frank Ocean, Pharrell Williams plus more.

“I see music,” Beyoncé states. “It’s more than just what I hear.  When I’m connected to something, I immediately see a visual or a series of images that are tied to a feeling or an emotion, a memory from my childhood, thoughts about life, my dreams or my fantasies.  And they’re all connected to the music.”


If you haven't had time to watch the incredible videos yet check out the clips here.

"Beyoncé as Mrs Carter in H&M"














Beyonce is the new face of H&M and I'm impressed. When the collaboration was first announced back in January, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. I love Beyonce but was really disappointed by the recent advert with Pepsi- it feels like someone who has always been incredibly private is becoming in-necessarily commercialised.

However, Beyonce appears naturally in the campaign and it feels as if she has produced a line that is down to earth, epitomising her individual style. Beyonce commented:
"I've always liked H&M's focus on fun 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," said Knowles. "It was a beautiful shoot on a tropical island. It felt more like making a video than a commercial".

The pieces are elegant, classic and symbol. My favourite is by far the two-piece tie-dyed with greens and whites. The cover ups are gorgeous too and I'm looking forward to seeing the collection in store over the coming weeks!
