Beckerman x H&M Collaboration: Fashion Against Aids and Giveaway!

We have collaborated with H&M to debut the launch of their new "Fashion Against Aids Collection!" This is H&M's fifth "Fashion Against Aids" collection to raise funds and create awareness about HIV/AIDS and we were so obsessed with all of their other FAA collections that we couldn't wait to try everything on! This collection is filled with soooo many amazing tribal prints, vibrant colours, feather headpieces, macrame fringe dresses and tops, reversible bomber jackets, rain ponchos for festivals, printed sunnies, silver cuffs and even a hammock! They even had international artists design t-shirt prints for the collection which makes it extra special. To see each piece, click here...there is also a Men's collection. We couldn't be anymore pumped to wear and style the new "FAA" collection and to show you what's hitting the H&M stores at the end of the month!

The best part of this collection is that 25% of all sales will go directly to a variety of international youth HIV/AIDS awareness projects. So far over the past five years, H&M has raised over $6.81 million dollars and this is the coolest collection yet.  The "Fashion Against Aids" collection will be available in 300 stores worldwide in the Divided departments on April 26th, 2012. We are also so excited to release one of their never been seen before campaign images, seen here first. Check out the last pic!

We would like to offer you the exciting chance to win an ENTIRE outfit from the collection!!! We are wearing some of our favourite pieces below! All you have to do is leave a comment with your email and we will notify the lucky winner on Friday, April 13th!!!
