Jimmy Choo AW ’17

Jimmy Choo Forum Shops

I have been neck deep in Fall Fashion shoots for the last few months (September is coming fast) and out of everything I have been working with, for me there is one huge standout for the coming season, the AW ’17 footwear collection from Jimmy Choo.

Of course I couldn’t show these beauties from set, at least not until the magazine’s print but luckily for me Fall ’17 has finally landed at retailers so I popped into the Jimmy Choo Boutique at the Forum Shops to share with you some of my favorites from the collection.

Jimmy Choo’s Creative Director Sandra Choi’s mission for AW 2017 is “To do sexy in a new way.”

And boy oh boy did she do it!

The AW 17 collection plays with proportions and shapes in an interesting and new way.  With a mix of fabrics and textures the collection offers a little something for everyone including leopard, metallic, fringe, rhinestones, velvet, patent, satin, pop art star cut-outs and a variety of different heel heights, from low to high, stiletto to block heel.  There are tons of sexy strappy details, metal hardware embellishments and this season’s must-have, high cut shoes.

Always game for a shoe trying on sesh, I put together a little shoe-montage for you with my top picks from the collection:

Jimmy Choo “Hustle” Black Suede Mules with Pink Galaxy Star Print and Studs.

Jimmy Choo “Tiff” Hazelnut Leopard Print Pony and Black Calf Leather Pointy Toe Pumps

Jimmy Choo AW 17

Jimmy Choo “Hansa” Vintage Rose Suede and Nappa Leather Ankle Sandals

Jimmy Choo AW 17 Fringe Heels

Jimmy Choo “Malia” Mink Suede Sandals with Fringe Detailing

Jimmy Choo Lark Bootie

Jimmy Choo “Lark” Bottle Green Shiny Calf Leather Booties

Guys, I didn’t forget about you.

The Jimmy Choo AW ’17 mens collection is something you don’t want to miss.  In my opinion it’s their best men’s collection to date!

Focused on the idea of contrast, the mix of sartorial and edge. The collection is inspired by the band The Clash, and combines unexpected materials such a flannel to create a mash-up of style genres.  Dressy finishes are used on more casual styles and a rebel edge is added to typically conservative formal styles.   The new collection incorporates Jimmy Choo’s signature star motif in a way that is oh so polished but oh so punk.  The detailing is sheer perfection.

Donald J Pliner Pre-Fall Collection

Donald J Pliner Pre Fall event

Oh ladies things are heating up, and I don’t just mean with the weather.

Las Week myself and a group of Las Vegas bloggers got a sneak peek at Donald J. Pliner’s Pre-Fall Collection at the DJP Boutique at The Forum Shops and I think it may be the strongest collection yet!

One thing is instantly clear, this collection celebrates the art of the shoe.

Donald J Pliner Pre Fall Collection

You know what a huge fan I am of Donald J Pliner and I didn’t think it was possible for the brand to become any more wonderful than they already are but this collection BLEW MY MIND!

From furry 60s inspired pumps to hardware laden stacked platforms, there is no shortage of wondrous embellishments.

I am obsessed with every single piece.  The millennial pink furry ladies in the above photo WILL BE MINE!  Mwah ha ha……

The pieces we viewed were all sample size (aka size 6) but you can bet your fashionable little feet that this blogging crew attempted to Cinderella our feet into each and every one of them.

They are THAT GORGEOUS!!!!

Available for pre-order right NOW with a delivery date of early August, I would suggest getting those orders in right away because this collection is going to sell FAST!

Until then I’ll be mentally planning  all of my Fall OOTD’s around these beauties.

Here are some of my top picks from the Donald J Pliner Fall Collection PLUS the AMAZING FELIZ heeled sandals that both Melissa from TheDailyNailBlog.com and myself picked up!

Sooooo Pretty!
