Writing this blog has resulted in some frankly amazing *pinch me!* moments over the past couple of years that have made me want to squeel with delight (winning two major blog awards last year, meeting several of my fashion design idols, sitting front row at Fashion Week…), and being asked to be a face of one of the world’s eminent luxury brands definitely falls firmly within this category.
As part of their just-launched online project called 24:7 Stylemakers, Jimmy Choo have handpicked a few of their favourite real-life girls (as opposed to the usual models) from around the world who they think embody a glamorous, jetset lifestyle to be the face of the campaign. And yes, that is little ol’ me as the English ‘face’ (you can see my profile here).
As part of the campaign, two enormous boxes of Choo samples arrived on my doorstep a month or so ago to borrow (*cue more squeels of delight*). Because the campaign is about glamorous women wearing fabulous shoes 24/7, this meant that I got to play dressups and go about my regular life in a month’s worth of twinkly, sparkly, sky-high Choos. Obviously, I wasn’t exactly complaining…
The Choo 24:7 campaign is live now, and any Choo-lover is invited to upload a picture of themselves with their Choos in their corner of the world to appear alongside the official ‘faces’ on the campaign site (enter before June 6th and you can win a Choo wardrobe worth £4000!).
You can see A Girl, A Style for Jimmy Choo (featuring a peek at a week in my life) here.
I’d love to hear what you think!
Love, Miss B xx

Barbara (MsHGolightly) says
Very exciting project and you look fabulous as usual. I knew you looked lovely in your girly dresses,but I must say you also rock boyfriend jeans like no other!
And really smart choice from a brand like Jimmy Choo to use real women for their campaign. I hope this sets a new standard for luxury brands advertising.

Miss B says
Thank you so much Barbara (you’ve been so supportive of A Girl, A Style for so long!). And I love it when brands use ‘real women’ in their campaigns, so to say I was thrilled to be a part of this is an understatment!

Claudia says
You look absolutely gorgeous!
Goes to show once again, “real” girls/women don’t have to starve themselves to death only to end up looking like skinny stick-insects. THIS is real beauty! You’ve got style, charm and class!
Go you, girl. Charisma is not something one can fabricate, and you’ve got buckets full of that!
I’m really happy I stumbled across your blog ages ago. I’ve been a fan ever since 🙂
It’s a constant source for inspiration and for simply feeling good about life 🙂
Miss B says
Thank you so much, and lovely to have you around! And yes, I love that Jimmy Choo chose ‘real women’ for this campaign; whilst of course the usual models are gorgeous, it can sometimes be a bit hard for us regular folk to relate. And real women like shoes too!

Mitchell says

Congrats darling! You look fab. One question tho- please tell me you got to keep the shoes…? xx
Miss B says
Thank you! And haha! Sadly all of these were just samples (that had to go back to be used for magazine shoots, etc.), but I did get to go into the store and choose a pair to take home with me (lucky me!)
