I love it when high-end designers create low-cost ranges for the masses. If the pieces didn’t sell out so fast, I’d love it even more. As a patron of Madonna’s H&M line (true story — I have a black leotard) I was so excited to hear that hot on the heels of Matthew Williamson’s line for the Swedish clothing chain, Jimmy Choo will be next in line to collaborate. The new line, as reported by Fab Sugar, is set to be launched November 14 and will be a mixed collection of designer goodies. The collection will have both men and women’s fashions and will not just provide the fabulous shoes the company is known for. The official look book is available to browse online and will give eager eyes an insight into the bags, dresses and jewels available.

In recent weeks, we have seen Gucci launch a social networking site for their eyewear range. Then they launched that fancy iPhone application. Now, creative director Frida Giannini is going for a sneaker collaboration. The collaboration was unveiled last week in New York with its co-designer Mark Ronson. The music producer and sister to Lindsay’s lesbian fling showed off a limited edition tricolor high top at the pop-up show in Soho. As the company moves on to other pop-up stores around the world, more sneakers will be unveiled. The red, white and blue is an ode to classic vintage, Ronson told Style.com. Other celebs in attendance included Mischa Barton, Mary J Blige, Claire Danes and Evan Rachel Wood who had a pair of the gold women’s running shoes in her sights.

Vogue is reporting that Sarah Jessica Parker is set to be the new face of Halston. The actress has been spotted on the set of the Sex & The City sequel in more than one of the iconic label’s creations. The fashion house only recently signed new creative director Mario Schwab, a favourite with stars like Kate, Kylie and Thandie Newton. The fashionista has reportedly been offered one million pounds to front the advertising campaigns. The campaign is set to coincide with the release of the movie.

Celeb spawn Peaches Geldof is waxing lyrical about the different types of It Boys on Nylon. Among them are the famous-by-association groupies like BJ Panda Bear, who are besties with Kelly Osbourne apparently. Jonny Makeup, Ms Geldof’s BFF and American Apparel’s marketing person is also a good example. DJs are also uber-chic with Steve Aoki and the boys from The MisShapes top of the list, the first for having doe-eyed model Devon Aoki for a sister and the latter for preparing the soundtrack music for shows and parties during Fashion Week. Genetic It Boys — aka those born to famous parents — like a certain Ms Geldof are low in talent but compensate with their inherited good looks. I’m sure their parents’ bags of money helps as well. It seems Mick Jagger’s brood is the fairest of them all. Jade Jagger is a renowned jewellery designer but probably more famous for being part of scandalous Primrose Hill gang. Elizabeth Jagger is a successful model and actress. And now daughter Georgia and son James are also joining the fold. One is giving modeling a try and the other is dating them.

Jimmy Choo founder and president Tamara Mellon announced to Elle UK that the luxury shoe and accessory label will be branching into fragrances. Jimmy Choo has just signed a 12-year fragrance licensing agreement with Paris company Inter Parfums SA, the home of Burberry Lanvin and Paul Smith fragrances. Speaking of the deal signed this week and starting in January 2010, Mellon stated “It has always been my vision to fully accessorise the woman, and fragrance is an integral part of the modern wardrobe. I look forward to bringing this important aspect of my vision to life.” Fragrance deals are always a happy moment for a frugal fashionista. Although we cannot afford the strappy sandals we can still get our hands on a fragrance.
