Ooo, how haunting! We’re slightly scurred!

While it may make us shiver in our boots, the cover shot for The Smashing Pumpkins' upcoming album Oceania is strangely beautiful, and was taken by the son of Chicago photography legend Art Shay.

Apparently, Oceania is more

After years of wearing all the big name designers, Beyonce's taking a cue from Lady GaGa and showing non-household name designers some love in her 4 album booklet.

The singer's creative director Jenke-Ahmed Tailly dished to the New York Times:

"The album is a musical gumbo of everything Beyoncé likes. Each song really has a different personality so we decided to do the cover like an editorial for a magazine, with each song having its own style. It was important to Beyoncé that the choice of clothing not be about the brand but about the quality of the work."

Beyonce ended up choosing a Alexandre Vauthier fur stole for the cover and purple Maxime Simoens dress for the deluxe version.

Other designers Queen B showcases inside the booklet includes Julien Fournié daisy dukes and a yellow bodysuit by fashion student Leah Rae.

We like her new fashion direction! It's unexpected and refreshing!

Fierce!

Beyonce's new album 4 dropped on Tuesday, which comes with a faboosh booklet featuring the songstress werking it for the camera.

In one of the images (above), Beyonce strikes a pose in a hot bodysuit from The Blonds A/W 2011 collection. The "crown" on top of Queen B's head is from the same collection, but it's actually a neckpiece.

So inventive!

The Blonds

He may not be getting a masters in fashion, but that's not stopping Kanye West from his latest collaboration.

The rapper was approached by graphic design duo Mathias Augustyniak and Michael Amzalag of M/M to use George Condo's artwork from his latest album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and turn it into scarves.

Naturally, Kanye agreed and it probably didn't hurt that it's going to be a limited edition collection.

Only 250 of the silk scarves are being produced (50 each of 5 designs) and sold this spring on Colette and M/M's website.

We're sure they'll cost a pretty penny too.
