Last night out in the Hollywood Hill, H&M held the launch event for their collaboration line with Jimmy Choo. The event saw a ton of celebrity support, folks like Rasida Jones, Hayden Panettiere, Olivia Wilde, Sheryl Crow, Cat Deeley, Angela Lindvall, Maggie Grace and Mini Andén. In addition to this M.I.A. gave a guest performance for all the guests in attendance. It’s no question that this is one of the most anticipated fashion collaborations, all 200 pieces from the collection will be available in H&M stores globally on November 14th. Why this collection is unique, it’s because for the first time Jimmy Choo has also designed women’s clothing to complement the accessories as well as men’s clothing, shoes, bags and accessories.

WWD’s reported earlier today that the Jimmy Choo and H&M collaborative line will be dropped on November 14th in two hundred stores. The pairing of Jimmy Choo and H&M will provide a high-end luxury line of accessories with H&M’s affordable price point. Below are a few photos from the ad campaign. I can’t wait to try on the heels above!

“The Jimmy Choo for H&M line is the first time the fast-fashion retailer will collaborate with an accessories brand after doing successful one-off apparel collections with the likes of Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney, Viktor & Rolf, Roberto Cavalli and, most recently, Matthew Williamson. Another first is on Mellon’s part: She has spearheaded her first apparel designs under the Jimmy Choo name” (WWD).

Ladies, get that artistic side out. Jimmy Choo is holding a competition called “72″. To enter all you need to do is take a picture of you, your shoes (I’m assuming Choos) and the number 72 incorporated somewhere in the photo. My favorite of the entries I’ve seen is above, called “Distortion”, some other favorites can also be seen below.

The winner of the competition will be announced 72 hours after the closing competition date of December 7th. Some of the photos will be featured in a launch event on October 29th, so if you want to be considered for that get your entries in quick.

So what is Project PEP? It’s a collaboration project between Jimmy Choo and Elton John AIDS Foundation. Specifically the project is designed to support the funding of the Simelela Rape Centre in South Africa.

“We are women helping women and we are proud to continue our collaboration with the compelling and urgent initiatives of the Elton John AIDS Foundation and to provide a voice for under-privileged women in South Africa. We are excited to launch this social media campaign which we believe is a fun, light-hearted way to make people aware of a very serious subject.” – Tamara Mellon, Founder & President, Jimmy Choo.

From this project initiative Jimmy Choo will be donating 25% of the net sales from Project PEP to the Elton John AIDS Foundation.

To take part in the competition head on over to Jimmy Choo here.

Love, love, loving some of the new purses for fall. Happy to see we’re not going to be stuck with the drab colours associated with the gloom and doom of a West Coast fall. Loving this Lil’ Riz purse from Marc Jacobs. This violet leather handbag is a functional size and shape, oh so important for lugging around all the goodies. And the colour is hot, hot and more hot. Also spotted some fantastic black purses from Jimmy Choo, but it is the colour that has me sold on this one.

Love this clutch. And apparently the collection consists of five other bags like it. Yes! This awesome graffiti collection is courtesy of Carlos Falchi, handbag extraordinaire, and his daughter, newly graduated from design school.

Sweet deals. You finish school and you instantaneously have a wicked job. If only life were like that for all of us. Sigh.

The collection supposedly retails from between $395 and $1195 and will be available as of September 10th.
