{November 17, 2009}   Jimmy Choo Draws Crowds at H&M

The much-hyped Jimmy Choo line for H&M arrived in stores over the weekend, and it certainly drew the crowds to the new H&M store in our home city of Glasgow. The range has also proved massivley popular worldwide (it will only be sold in 200 stores). Some people even resorted to camping outside the stores – now that is dedication to fashion.

Many of the lines have sold out already and are going on eBay for ridiculously inflated prices.

Did you manage to get your hands on anything? How long did you queue up for? and most importantly: Are the clothes any cop?



I don’t know about you but ive always found the BBCs What Not To Wear series to be rather patronising. Not a particularly original observation you may think – i apologise for that. It seems to me that whovever happens to be the victim of a style makeover always seem to end up wearing the same, rather dull and generic ‘Ladies Catalogue Model’ style clothing. This always appears to engender a palpable air of disappointment. We are willing to bet that after a week or two of trying to stick to this forced-styling – participants revert back to wearing jogging bottoms and hoodies.

My attitude towards clothing is and always will be this -: Express Yourself and Wear What You Want :- infact, come to think of it a TV show based around that title could make for a far more interesting televisual experience that WNTW.

However, having said all that, the WNTW website does offer a rather funky ladies clothes style barometer on the website that you can try. Do you know what not to wear…?
