H&M and Jimmy Choo are set to collaborate. I kid you not.

This is the first time H&M will be collaborating with an accessories brand, and to celebrate Jimmy Choo will extend its range to women’s clothing to complement the accessories.

You guys will be happy to know that this collaboration will include a men’s collection of shoes, bags and accessories.

The collection will be available from November 14 in around 200 stores across the world.

“This autumn, British accessory brand Jimmy Choo will bring its international glamour and covetable shoes and bags to selected H&M stores,” H&M said in a statement.

Other fashion greats that have collaborated with H&M include Matthew Williamson, Karl Lagerfeld, Viktor & Rolf, Roberto Cavalli, Stella McCartney and Comme des Garcons founder Rei Kawakubo.

Their launches have generated frenzied scenes as shoppers sought to buy chic designs at cut-rate prices, and some collections have sold out within minutes.

Mark your calendars and arrive early. It’s gonna be a road block.

Actress and comedienne Amy Poehler looked beautiful when she attended The 2009 Gracie Awards Gala in New York earlier this month.

She glowed wearing a champagne coloured Karen Millen stretch satin dress with dramatic folded shoulder line on the sleeves.

Copper bejeweled heels, and a classy updo completed her look.

Kathy Griffin wore the same dress is an stunning electric blue colour, when she arrived at he Ed Sullivan theater in New York for her appearance on the “Late Show With David Letterman”.

The comedienne wore her dress with a black leather belt, and YSL Trib Two slingbacks.

I do adore the electric blue version as it stands out more, plus Kathy’s seems to fit better so she wins for me.

This dress is currently available from on sale at KarenMillen.com for £110 in these 4 colours. I’m so in love with blue. I have to find it.

Either it’s the summer sun or these ladies were all inspired by John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever, as suddenly white pant suits are popping up frequently on the red carpet.

The trend is even spreading to nuptials as the now Mrs Boris Becker got married in a white suit this weekend.

Despite my instincts that a white suit will get dirty there’s something rather chic and dazzling about this trend.

Jenny McCarthy and Malin Ackerman’s looks are almost identical with the white suit, ice blue top combo.

Annette Bening and Kate Hudson committed fully to the all white look.  Annette opted for a super dazzling white suit with a white tee, whilst Kate Hudson who likes to flash a bit of skin on the red carpet opted for a demure elegant Stella McCartney suit including a white shirt.

Jenny is the only one who opted for a white accessories with a white clutch.

This current trend is refreshing.

A white suit is a great head turner at a formal evening event, summer wedding or a trip to the tropics…but please do not expect to keep it clean for long.

Carry a mini bottle of stain remover in your clutch. Just in case.
