Hi Guys!
MY FAVOURITE JIMMY CHOO ACCESSORIES

Here comes some good news for all you fashionistettes out there! 14 November is a date for you all to remember. It is the day that H & M opens it's doors to present a collection by Jimmy Choo. The collection will include mainly shoes and purses, however a small collection of clothes for both men and women will be sold.


According to the press information that has been provided the shoes and purses will cost between 398 and 1998 kr. Not bad ha... if not, well start saving now! The collection will be launched in 200 H&M boutiques mostly in big cities. I am sure Stockholm will be one of them!

Oswald Boateng the fashion inspiration for man

Hi guys, read about this guy Ozwald Boateng and get inspired!

Ozwald Boateng

Ozwald Boateng is widely credited with introducing Savile Row tailoring to a new generation. He was the first tailor to stage a catwalk show in Paris. Among Boateng's many clients we find Laurence Fishburne, Samuel L. Jackson, Keanu Reeves and Mick Jagger.

While studying computing at Southwark College, he was introduced to cutting and designing clothes by his girlfriend at the time. Using his mother's old sewing machine, he started designing and selling clothes to his fellow students. At sixteen he sold his first collection to a menswear shop in Covent Garden, and by the time he was twenty-three he had set himself up full time in business.

Keen to learn the best of traditional tailoring, he would find out who best stitched buttonholes, who set sleeves the best way, who made the best linings and so on, at the same time developing his own style and look.

Ozwald sees himself as more than a tailor, and more than a designer, so he coined the term 'bespoke couturier'. He was the first Savile Row designer to open an American store when he opens his Madison Avenue boutique.
