Best contest ever: Announcing our “Jimmy Choo 24:7 the Collection” Styling Contest!

Jimmy Choo is partnering with Saks Fifth Avenue and Closet Couture to bring you a styling contest to introduce the new Choo 24:7 Shoe Collection. Want them? Need them? Then STYLE them!

From March 27 through April 10, 2010, members can style outfits using the Choo shoe and handbag collection on Closet Couture. The creators of the top THREE outfits (as selected by Jimmy Choo) will win not one…. not two…. but the THREE pairs of Jimmy Choo’s, pictured above, in her size from the collection. (we know, we almost died when we heard the prize!!)

Jimmy Choo designer Tamara Mellon told WWD “We think of these shoes as investment pieces, timeless pieces, part of a wardrobe that every woman needs.” There is a shoe in this collection for every woman, for every event, day or night, that she has – it is the ultimate complete shoe wardrobe!

How would you wear your Choos?

To enter:

1. Follow Jimmy Choo 24:7 the Collection on Closet Couture to read more about the collection and get access to the closet.

2. Make an outfit featuring at least ONE pair of Jimmy Choo shoes from the closet and anything else from your closet or others.

3. Save the outfit and include “Jimmy Choo” in the title of the outfit**.

Enter as many times as you’d like, and Jimmy Choo will pick the top three outfits that they like best! Winners will be announced the week of April 20th 2010. You can see what outfits others have created here. Good luck and stay tuned!

Forget peeking into the medicine cabinet at someone else's home…. we all know that the real action is a look into someone else's closet. That is one of the points of Closet Couture and now we have something even better – you can shop other people's closets! Underneath each item (click on the item in the closet so it's own page comes up) we are running similar items to purchase directly so you can get the look yourself. Covet that perfect coverup from season's ago? We show you similar ones you can buy now.

SO easy and fun! Get inspired and get the look for yourself! Don't miss the closets of some of our most stylish users, and for great inspiration, take a look at some of our stylist's closets.

Happy shopping!

Styling Contest Winner……!

The challenge? Style Fiona (aka justapuppy) in fresh looks for everyday wear.

You know, provide the solution to that problem of standing in front of your closet thinking: I have NOTHING to wear!! We asked, and you answered with fabulous options for Fiona for day, evening and everything else. We loved these looks and found that sometimes you have most of the pieces there, you just need a fresh eye and a new piece or two to feel like a million bucks!

The winner? TAMTIEHEL (aka Tammy)! Congratulations, Tammy will get $200 from Saks Fifth Avenue as her prize!!

Here is the winning outfit:

Fiona says: “I love this look from tamtiehel, and think it's perfect as the weather warms up and I'll be investing in a sexy pencil skirt like the one shown!”

RUNNERS UP: Outfits we all loved and that Fiona will be debuting as well this spring. Her thoughts on each, below:

“I know this look will look perfect together, and it's one I wouldn't have put together alone”:

“I love the accessories chosen for this outfit by leighthomas”:

“I tried and tested this look by Lady Diane, and got some compliments which was lovely”:
