Jimmy Choo for H&M

I'm a little late with this but shush.I'm really excited for this. It seems like the trendy and business savvy thing for designer to do is merge with retailers marketed to middle class. For example,Rodarte for Target.Well here's a sneak peek

Check out more of the collection @ http://www.fabsugar.com/5185890
My faves
*Zebra print clutch
*Faux fur vest
*Black wrap dress
*Gray sheath dress
Basically everything...

Overall,The Jimmy Choo collection for H&M isn't THAT amazing,revolutionary or trend setting.It has a clubbing/night on the town theme.There's a lot of high slits,fringe,leather,studs,sequins and fur.It's pretty basic but it works. There's so many things I adore. But it does have really exquisite and eye-catching accessories such as the clutches and shoes. And of course,the pumps & stilettos galore. That's what Jimmy Choo is known for. Jimmy Choo for H&M premieres in all participating stores on Nov.14!

p.s-Sorry I can't put up pictures-long story!,I need to figure out this picture thing on Blogger.Ugh.

Trend Report

BLJ(Black Leather Jacket)
Every fall it happens,its inevitable. It's edgy,chic and looks effortless..if you get the right one. H&M(yes i said it) has a nice selection of them. Then again it depends on the store.


Loose fitting knit beret
Extremely popular yet really hard to find. For my fellow NY'ers: go to the city street vendors or soho and they're everywhere for really cheap.Everyone else get the googling/online shopping!


The Boyfriend Blazer
I love this,it looks good on everyone. It instantly adds the fashionable but not overdone touch to any outfit. I really need a blazer. I have a green one but it's not the same!


Leopard Print Ballet Flats
I love leopard print in SMALL QUANTITIES.This pair is by Steve by Steve Madden"Skold" Leopard Print Pointy flats;ranges from $40-110.
Aren't they fabulous? I had a pair of leopard print for a couple of years that i had to get rid of recently. They were getting real worn and wide at the sides,UGH. That's a sign of cheap ballet flats.I still have a gorgeous pair of black Steve Madden flats that I bought YEARS AGO. Buying Steve Madden shoes are an investment!!!


Boyfriend Jeans
Eh,I'm not a fan of this trend. It's frumpy and makes your ass look wide and flat:cringe:

Fringe Festival

Fringes look to making a big statements this spring and summer, but not just the predictable and traditional type of fringe that so often adorns clothing.

At Maison Martin Margiela - a jacket with a fringe, or is it a whole wig. Well anyway, it certainly adds a bit of humour to the trend for fringed clothing.


At Jil Sanders, fringes were very very long. An unexpected twist on the fringe turned but great for the lengthening effect and to create a long streamlined shape.


At Louis Vuitton fringed skirts were the order of the day. A great summer look for the beach.

The inspiration for fringed clothing this season ranges from twenties, to hair, to grass and the more traditional wild west/ boho look with fringed leather.

This fringe like Escamalar necklace adds a bit of glamour and an unusual touch to a low necked dress or top.

This twenties style fringed dress by French Connection is a very eye catching version of the little black dress and great for a night out.

This Soft Leather Fringed Bag will look amazing with a printed blouse and jeans for trendy casual look. These 'Sioux' Fringed Sandals will look amazing with a chiffon or floaty mini dress for a summer evening party.
