The latest news of designer fashion ranges on the high street is the collaboration of Jimmy Choo and H & M in a collection that will be released in the autumn. The range is hot on the heels of the very sucessful Matthew Williamson summer collection and a recent collaboration with Comme De Garcons Rei Kawakubo and will include clothes, accessories and bags.

The Jimmy Choo label is particularly well known for it’s flattering designer shoes although the bags are also very popular. Many celebrities including Cate Blanchett, Halle Berry and Hilary Swank wear Jimmy Choo shoes. Although I have loved the previous H & M designer collections and think that they are a brilliant opportunity to get some cut price designer wear, even if it is a little watered down, I have mixed feelings about a cut price Jimmy Choo collection. A pair of Jimmy Choo shoes is not only treasured for it’s up to the minute designs but also it’s quality and the workmanship that has gone into making it. I am rather sceptical about the quality of high street Jimmy Choos and would perhaps rather save my money for the real thing like these light pink Jimmy Choos.

I shall however, definitely be checking out the collection in November.
