    Jimmy Choo For H&M Is Almost Here!

    Finally, the day is almost here! The Jimmy Choo collection is the first time H&M is collaborating with an accessories brand and we think it's a pretty fabulous brand to go for on a first try! And it sounds like quite a bit of work went into making this happen. According to Tamara Mellon, the founder and president of Jimmy Choo, "It was a challenge for us to create high-quality pieces at an H&M price point." We believe it! And since the line is more than just shoes and accessories, it will definitely be different from the traditional Jimmy Choo line. We're interested to see how the line fares for H&M. We think it will be hugely popular (we hear they're giving out wristbands for opening day!), but have to wonder if it will cheapen the Jimmy Choo brand as a whole. Clearly Mellon doesn't think so, or we're sure she wouldn't have agreed to the collaboration. She said, "It was H&M's idea to [do clothes], and as soon as they said it, I really wanted to do it." It will definitely allow them to meet a whole new audience; that's for sure! Make sure to check it out when it arrives on November 14! Check back with Limelife for more news on designer collabos!

    Jean Paul Gaultier Is Next Up For Target!

    Jean Paul Gaultier is doing a Target collection, reports The Cut via WWD. The over-the-top designer's collection will be available at more than 250 Target stores across the country and Target.com on March 7 through April 11. Following Alexander McQueen and Anna Sui, Gaultier is the third established designer to do a collection for the mass retailer under the Designer Collaboration series. His chosen muse? The American woman, "celebrating the forces of style both past and present in American pop culture," a Target spokesperson says. I remember being thrilled by Gaultier's risque designs as a young girl (Madonna's cone-bra corset comes to mind). My mother's dislike of his iconic female/male perfume bottles only made me want them more; both still sit prominently displayed in my glass bathroom cabinet. This Frenchman holds a special place in my heart so I look forward to what he'll bring to Target audiences.

    Celeb Favorite: The Catherine Malandrino "Leggero" Draped Blouse

    For Hollywood's most stylish stars red carpet originality is a must, but sometimes that can get tricky when a designer creates something so fabulous that everyone wants to be seen it. Feast your eyes on this gorgeous black and nude tulle "Leggero" draped blouse from the Malandrino Resort Collection 2010 that Gabrielle Union, Mary J. Blige, Estelle and most recently Kerry Washington have all been spotted in. The major appeal of this blouse is that it's ultra luxe and trendy without the wearer looking like they tried too hard. "The layers of jersey tulle over silk makes clothes that whisper, the draping above a fitted cut allows movement, and the transparency in subtle tones speaks about understated femininity," says New York designer Catherine Malandrino (pictured below far left), who dresses stars like Mary J. Blige and Estelle regularly. If you feel fashion copycatting is the biggest form of flattery, then don't be afraid to rock this sexy blouse too! The Leggero top, $950, is currently available at Catherinemalandrino.com. See more at Essence!

    Line To Watch: Finsk By Julia Lundsten

    When Manolo Blahnik uses words like "exquisite, "divine," and "perfect" to describe your shoe designs, you know you're on the up and up (and not just in terms of heel height). That's exactly where designer Julia Lundsten is going with her line Finsk. Launched in 2004, her collection of crazy designs and quirky, sculptural heels has her dubbed as the Eames of footwear. While attending London's Royal College of Art she won the prestigious Manolo Blahnik Award 2 years in a row. Her inspiration from architecture and furniture is visible in the details of her shoes. Her love of furniture design extends to her way of thinking too -- considering the heel and the sole as the chair's legs and the upper as the seat, her shoes always seem to cradle the foot perfectly. With an unconventional style, the pumps, ankle booties, and boots all feature heels hand-carved from sustainable hard woods from Brazil. If that doesn't get you walking tall, I don't know what will! Check out the slideshow to see some of her signature styles.

    The Salvatore Ferragamo brand is well known for well-made and stylish shoes, but one should take a closer look at their amazing selection of handbags.

The Mini Vara Capra ($1550) and Mini Vara Capra Small ($1490) are shoulder bags with the added sweetness and drama of a grosgrain bow on the chain and leather straps.

These Salvatore Ferragamo bags are such a feast on the eyes! They'll work with a daytime look of jeans, a cute blouse and sandals. They'll easily transition into nighttime when paired with your little black dress and smart coat. Want to know more about these amazing Ferragamo bags? Click over to our friends at Splendicity!
