Back in July you’ve got a sneak peek of Jeremy Scott’s adidas Originals Spring/Summer 2011 collection, here’s a closer look at the teddy bears sneaker. The Snuggle-like teddy bear with arms on the sneaker is so cute, I saw them in person when I was in Vegas and totally loved them. The bears actually look bigger in person than in pictures, I was a bit surprised but still cute but may be over-the-top for most people. Some even say it looks scary but I hope I’ll be able to get my hands on a pair. The brown pair will be available for men. These are slated to release in February if I didn’t remember wrong.

Would you rock these?

Yesterday we were still speculating if the Lanvin for H&M rumor was true or not, guess no more H&M has confirmed that its next designer collaboration will be with Lanvin!! The collection will be designed by Lanvin’s artistic director Alber Elbaz, and menswear designer Lucas Ossendrijver, and is slated to go on sale on November 23 in around 200 H&M stores worldwide. Mark your calendars and start saving up!

According to H&M, the collection of both womenswear and menswear will be revealed on November 2, just three weeks before the clothes hit the store. Hopefully we’ll get some leaks here and there ha! Seriously dying right now, might not be able to sleep haha! Are you excited?

“H&M approached us to collaborate, and see if we could translate the dream we created at Lanvin to a wider audience, not just a dress for less. I have said in the past that I would never do a mass-market collection, but what intrigued me was the idea of H&M going luxury rather than Lanvin going public. This has been an exceptional exercise, where two companies at opposite poles can work together because we share the same philosophy of bringing joy and beauty to men and women around the world.” Alber Elbaz, artistic director of Lanvin.

“We are thrilled about Lanvin’s collection for H&M, it is such an exciting moment. Lanvin will bring to H&M a luxurious French tradition that is also modern and playful. It is very much a Lanvin collection, using their cut and tailoring, with lots of focus on form and details for both women and men. The launch in November is going to be full of wonderful surprises.” Margareta van den Bosch, creative advisor at H&M.

The reopening of the Chanel boutique in SoHo is on September 10th, just in time for Fashion’s Night Out, to celebrate the reopening, Chanel Global Creative Director of Makeup Peter Philips has created a limited edition collection that echoes the spirit of SoHo. “For me, SoHo is a place where Bohemian ideals meet the toughness of the city… I love the tension and energy this creates.” says Peter Philips.

The SoHo Story Collection is a study in extreme contrasts, partnering feminine pinks and roses with strong, industrial metallics. From pretty cheekbones to anthracite nails, tender creams and flashes of metal simultaneously reflect and contradict each other. “I had a specific girl in mind who is both hard and soft. A girl who discovers a new city, a new life.” adds Peter Philips. “This is a very special kind of New York woman. She is innocent, but she has a steely determination that fuels the city.” The collection’s SOHO DE CHANEL Exclusive Creation reflects a Pop Art influence. Stamped with the four letters of SoHo, this silky powder comes in a delicate palette of shades and, when dusted across the face, creates a subtle, natural glow.

The collection consists of SOHO DE CHANEL ($65), QUADRA EYE SHADOW in Stupendous ($56), ROUGE COCO in Stunning ($30), ROUGE ALLURE LAQUE in Stunt ($32), GLOSSIMER in Star ($27), LE VERNIS in Steel and Strong ($23 ea). Available on chanel.com on September 7th and September 10th at the SoHo Boutique.

Love it, I’m definitely going to check out the nail polishes at the SoHo boutique!
