Jimmy Choo for H&M


We are not sure,
if everyone is aware of the most anticipated mass market collaboration of the the year.

Hola ! Its Jimmy Choo for H&M



The official public launch date was on November 14th 2009.
It was a limited edition, one-day only collection which was available at only 200 H&M stores worldwide (boo-hoo KL for not having one!) and it was on a big-rule system.

A strict queuing system is implemented -
where only 160 lucky people are allowed to enter at a time, get their JC wristbands and only be granted a total of 10 minutes time

In addition, they couldn’t buy multiples of the same product.

It was reported that all of the items all sold-out within few hours
(minutes for the women's clothing , surprisingly)

People are getting crazy over this event of the year, and started queuing & camping outside of the store, from the night before, regardless of the wet & windy weather,
just to get a mere chance of getting into the store on the next morning.

But sadly, thousands of humans were turned away empty-handedPrices range starts from £14.99 (jewelery) up to £179.99 (thigh high boots)
(JChoo's Normal Price for shoes starts from £235 and handbags from £1,000)


If you miss the chance of getting one of the collection from the frenzy,
you can scout them at on Ebay nowadays at double the price.


You may ask WHY SO EXPENSIVE on EBAY ???

From DailyMail UK, a seller on eBay described how she had queued for four hours to secure her items. She said: 'We stood in the rain for hours, then in the shop for another few hours, then went into what can only be described as carnage to get them.'


Price increases like crazy, since you have to bid for the item , opposing millions of people worldwide !


Apart from this, you should also consider the whopping cost for the international shipping to Malaysia , which usually costs a bomb ;)


Now , Lets take a peek at some of the collection

Shoes


Bags


Okay enough .. the main point is ..
We do have some of these great items up for grabs

Catch them here very soon !
Till Then *smooch*
