A day in Salzburg

I've just spent a relaxing week in Salzburg (2 nights), Dusseldorf (5 nights - including the launch of Jimmy Choo for H&M) and Koln (1 day).

You, Your Shoes and 72: Jimmy Choo supports HIV awareness

THE COMPETITION
Jimmy Choo and Elton John AIDS Foundation have launched a photo competition to support the launch of Project PEP, a charity collection that donates 25% of sales to the Simelela Rape Centre in South Africa. The money goes towards providing the HIV-preventative treatment PEP (which must be taken within 72 hours of exposure to HIV) and counselling to victims of rape in South Africa, which has the highest count of rape in the world.



ENTRIES
The theme of the photo competition is ‘You, Your Shoes and 72’, and as you can see from some of the photo entries below, we’ve had a very diverse response over the past few weeks:

The overall winners will be announced after the competition close on 7th December. On offer is a Grand Prize of the ultimate Jimmy Choo VIP experience – the winner will be invited to spend a day of luxury and the Jimmy Choo HQ and choose 7 pairs of shoes and 2 handbags to keep. Plus over 100 exclusive Jimmy Choo prizes will also be awarded.

Fluffy sleeves

Bought this shirt from Zara after a long internal debate. Are the sleeves too big or not?



* Pringle 1915 skirt
* Mimi Din hipo buckle with handmade belt
* Zara black shirt

Ferocious croc

I finally snagged the infamous croc dress by Christopher Kane for Topshop on ebay. It was selling for ridiculous prices, but i managed to win one with a fairly modest bid. Me HAPPY :)

I think it will also look nice for summer, but for now i paired it with my over-the-knee boots from Stefanel (i have them for 3 years now, but everybody keeps asking me if i bought them this fall).
