Like chocolate and peanut butter, champagne and strawberries, and Hoda and Kathie Lee… two more of my favorite things are joining forces: this fall, trendy accessory powerhouse Jimmy Choo lands at H&M!
No, you haven’t died and gone to style heaven. This is actually happening. Jimmy Choo will be providing top-quality, high-end designer shoes and bags at bargain prices. And let me just say, they happen to be one of the few brands that do not send out freebies to celebs or VIPs, so even Carrie Bradshaw will be on line on November 14, 2009 when the Brit brand's coveted accessories hit 250 H&M locations across the country.
I know, it might seem a little early to blog about, but this isn’t the kind of news a girlfriend waits to share (and yes, you’ll be seeing more in a fall segment)! To celebrate this collaboration, Jimmy Choo is designing a women’s clothing range for the retail chain that will compliment the accessory capsule. Finally, clothes to match your shoes and bag, instead of the other way around!
And just when you thought it couldn’t possibly get any better – Jimmy Choo will also create a collection of shoes, bags, and accessories for the man in your life. Jimmy Choo's founder Tamara Mellon says the line “will bring a sophisticated, fashion forward, accessible, glamorous collection to H&M – the perfect party pieces to buy now and then wear out that night!” This will mark the first time H&M has paired with an accessories brand, and also the first time I’ve officially cleared my schedule five months in advance!
