Remember the Jimmy Choo\/Ugg collaboration<\/a>? We know, you’re trying to forget. If Lanvin for H&M was a beautiful marriage that everyone loved to witness, Jimmy Choo Uggs were a drunken celebrity sex tape that no one really wants to see, but something you find yourself watching to only because of the names involved.<\/p>\n Jimmy Choo CEO Tamara Mellon attempted to explain the odd pairing to W<\/a>:<\/p>\n “Uggs were my guilty pleasure until I was on a flight to London and the airline staff said, \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcWe\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re all so excited to see what shoes you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re wearing!\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 I had Uggs on. So now we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve done a collaboration where I took traditional Uggs and decorated them with the DNA of Jimmy Choo\u00e2\u20ac\u201danimal prints and studs.” {via the Cut<\/a>}<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
