Jimmy Choo for H&M preview
Yeah so FYI, they released a preview of the new Jimmy Choo for H&M stuff (find a lot of stuff here.)
The collection has a lot of animal prints, sparkly things and embellishments, it’s not really my style, but I would do what I’d do for a Klondike bar for an affordable pair of over-the-knee boots for real, and there’s a pair:
The Jimmy Choo stuff should be in H&Ms on November 14.

Manic Monday
Michael Kors Glasses from Bloomies - under 100 bucks
Bloomingdale’s has picked up on the fact that not everyone has money to throw around these days, and has listed a bunch of accessories and shoes under 100 bucks. Nice.
Express doesn’t have any new deals, but they are featuring new coats for fall.
Also, NBC10 has a bunch of links up that should keep you busy until lunch…or at least for the next five minutes. First off there’s a slide show featuring Michelle Obama’s style. NBC10’s Lilliana Vazquez points the way to bold jewelry, and Garren talks about his path to doing hair for the stars.
Lastly, The Thread, NBC’s fashion blog picked out a list of best dressed celebs, and even more pictures of Jimmy Choo’s upcoming line at H&M.
Fab Friday
The Frisky is on the lookout so you don’t go to work with a boring look. Patterned tights, as well as interesting flats, heels and belts are amongst the suggestions to mix up what you wear for your 9-5. The Brits do tights right, and Topshop has some cute ones.
Clutch.com has pictures up of Jimmy Choo’s future at H&M, while other pictures, she’s working on getting more comfortable.
A pretty big website, backed by Hearst Digital Media was launched yesterday in Beta form. Accoring to one founding editor Nicole Stagg the site RealBeauty.com can be described as follows:
“The site will be a mixture of beauty-related content from Hearst properties like Cosmopolitan, Bazaar and Marie Claire and other sources, including non-Hearst magazines and books that concentrate on specific areas of expertise. “To expand our ethnic beauty coverage, we have formed content partnerships with Hype Hair and Latina magazines, and will pursue other similar partnerships to make sure we can offer full-service beauty content,”
The website seems like one stop shopping for style, hair, makeup, skincare, and fitness questions. Nice.
Rat Tales

Famed Shoe Designer Jimmy Choo is collaborating with H&M! This article from the Wall Street Journal gives more details, but all you really need to know is the shoes will be avaliable in the fall. Ahh!
All this rain doesn’t make for such fun times with the flat iron. I’ve been trying to figure out how to create the perfect curls for the past few days, and while I’ve had some ok waves, Marie Claire explains how to get full out ringlets. They even have a video if you’re a visual learner like I am…or if you just like videos.
The Metro’s style blogger speaks out against 80’s trends that she thinks should never come back. Reading it made me remember how protective some little boys were over their rat tails in the early 90’s. I think it was a hard thing to let go of for some. Why did that ever seem like a good idea? ‘Mommy…I want a rat tail!’ What?
The Metro also did a list of things that Organic Beauty Product Company founder Yael Alkalay likes. It’s like a Hippie Oprah list. Nice.
