Jimmy Choo collaborates with UGG


Jimmy Choo & Ugg Mandha boot: Rate or Slate?


Now there are some things that should never be combined and quite possibly this is one of them; Jimmy Choo, arguably the holy grail of women’s footwear has designed a range for UGG.

To be fair, I see the appeal and I can see the logic. Nearly every woman in the world owns a pair of UGGs; they are the ultimate in comfortable footwear and every woman that I know inspires to own a pair of Choos, so in theory this is a match made in heaven.

Having seen the design though, I’m not convinced. Studs, stars and tassels are the main differences to your standard pair of UGGS.

They’ve definitely been give the Choo master touch, but to me they just don’t look luxurious enough to justify the £495-£695 price tag they’ve been given.

Will they be a sell out? Of course. Will a host of celebs be papped in them over winter? No doubt.

So essentially they are a success. Personally I prefer what they did for Hunter- those croc print wellies were oh-so chic and could be worn with anything.

Maybe they’ll grow on me. Maybe if I stare at the picture long enough I’ll feel inspired to buy... maybe, just maybe.

What do you think? Are they the ultimate in chic styling, or a bit tacky for your taste?

Emma Watson Hearts People Tree!


Emma Watson models new People Tree collection

She hearts People Tree; I heart Emma, so in effect I now heart PeopleTree too- she kind of has that affect on me, as I imagine she does on so many others.

So, ethical fashion which is cool- seriously!? Yes apparently so as Emma’s second collection, yes I missed the memo for the first as well, is unbelievably chic.

She even models her favourite looks for the site- but you can’t help but notice the long wavy locks in the promo shots.

Clearly done before she got snip happy with the scissors, she looks very youthful in these pics, so it’s actually quite hard to associate this Emma with the new, more mature and less hairy Emma.

That said, I’m a fan are you? Take a look below and tell me your faves… I’m already on the waiting list for that lumberjack shirt above...
