Lady Gaga lends her name to aid efforts in earthquake-and-tsunami-ravaged Japan with a wristband for sale on her online store that reads ‘We pray for Japan’ in red letters on a white background. It’s on sale for $5, and customers can add an extra donation, with all proceeds going to relief efforts. [Time]

Emma Watson just gets more fashionable by the day. The ‘Harry Potter’ star has been designing eco-friendly fashion in collaborations for a while, and she was the celebrity face of a couple of Burberry campaigns. Now she’s signed on as a brand ambassador for Lancôme. [Telegraph]

Another fashion house has lost its creative director, but in a much less dramatic way than the kerfuffle that led to John Galliano’s split with Christian Dior. Clare Waight Keller resigned quietly as creative director of Pringle of Scotland, sending a letter to select fashion editors saying she is leaving with a ‘mixture of sadness, pride and anticipation.’ No reason was given, but it is believed to be at least partly personal since she is expecting a third child in May.
