Brightly colored totes can be so much fun! But when those bright colors have a watercolor look to them, well that’s just icing on the cake! That is what grabbed my attention when I stumbled across the Jimmy Choo Scarlet Exotic Print Tote. Blues, aquas, greens, purples, and pinks all flow across the surface of this tote with a sense of grace about them. And to be honest, I think they look great together!
When it comes to investment piece handbags, I really like the vintage-inspired styles. In a way, it is sort of like evolution. Through trial and error, certain classic styles have been perfected to the point where there is little room left for improvement. Styles like that are sure to stick around for the long haul and really stand the test of time. So when I came across the Jimmy Choo Sylvia Grainy Nappa Tote, I knew that it was something worth investing some money into. This lovely, vintage-inspired silhouette features these dramatic cut-out handles that are sure to grab the attention of everyone in the room. What I like though is how Jimmy Choo adorned the handles inside and out with flattened pyramid studs. So cute! I also love the gently gathered leather body, which really helps to soften the shape of this bag so it doesn’t look too boxy.
Leopard and animal print is the trend of the season (one of them that is). If you find yourself craving this kitty cat print, but just can’t do a big handbag covered with it, then how about a small accessory. Jimmy Choo has the cutest little accessory ever, called the Zelda! It’s great if you’re looking for something small and versatile! And yes, I choose the word versatile to describe this teeny purse.
WOW! Everyday I am seeing a new and exciting summer sale happen. Last year, it was so ho hum. No great items. No great deals. But this year, it’s a different story altogether! Just received my notice on the Jimmy Choo summer sale! Wow! There is alot of great stuff! Shoes are 25-50% off.

When it comes to animal prints, I find myself going back and forth a lot. First I love them. Then I hate them. Then I starting thinking they aren’t so bad. Then I start wondering what I ever saw in them. And, finally, I find myself loving them again. So what’s with all the yo-yo-ing? After giving it a lot of thought, I finally came to the conclusion that it is them… not me. I think it is all in the way the animal print in presented. Sometimes it’s gorgeous and other times it’s just plain gaudy. But what about this latest version of the Jimmy Choo Sky Hobo? As you can see, this fan favorite has been given an exotic makeover for the Fall 2010 Collection!
Jimmy Choo’s footwear designs range from classic wardrobe staples like strappy slingbacks, peep-toe pumps, to sophisticated gladiators and some truly outrageous over the top designs this season like the Light Up Platform Sandal. His handbags are stylish, sophisticated,and yes, expensive, but they haven’t reached that edge, until now.
The Jimmy Choo Scarlet Glazed Canvas Tote is a marriage of classic and extreme. The simple tote style is as basic a bag as you can find. With a large roomy size and coated canvas material, it features complete functionality as well. What isn’t basic, functional or classic is the over-the-top, eye-catching pattern laid out on the bag. Studded handles, animal prints, birds, chains, high heels and a bold swatch of purple cover this otherwise simple bag with fun, edgy and somewhat outrageous design!
