YES - it's TRUE, you've heard right - JIMMY CHOO is now available in Malta and yes of course you can just drop in and see..it's open to all ..just pop by SARTO (which is right next door to Hugo Boss opposite the infamous St Julians/Paceville 'park'). I've spent the last few days answering these questions, so I thought it's high time I wrote this post and gave you all the info. Of course it's not an official Jimmy Choo store but it's even better because whilst checking out the shoes you can also pop by the Dolce and Gabbana section and lust over those breathtakingly beautiful clothes.
I remember a time when there were practically no designer brands available to buy in Malta and most luxury online stores had never heard of Malta let alone delivered to us. This meant your only option was to buy whilst travelling which of course was easier for some people than others. In the last few years the situation has changed - SARTO houses Dolce and Gabbana, Jimmy Choo , Giuseppe Zanotti, Burberry and others under its roof and for this we have Michelle and her hard working team to thank. Whatever you might think about designer prices, it is important for any industry to have available to its consumers both high end and low end products and these people have managed to be one of the key shops that are filling that upper bracket for our island.
I also wish to pint out that NO the prices are not more expensive than abroad, which is something people seem to keep insisting on about all local shops and another very important thing is that SARTO also has two annual sales, In fact at the moment, you can find some Dolce and Gabbana items on sale, I've actually spent the last few days thinking about a pair of shoes they have at 50% off in my size, I've been trying really hard to convince myself I don't need them but I'm not sure it's working.

The launch party was lovely, lots of delicious sweets by Zest, flowing Martini to drink and lots of people to catch up with ..whilst of course lusting after the shoes. I also absolutely love the Marie Antoinette-inspired visual styling displays.
This event came one day after my trip back from London and 48 hours of no sleep so I was a little tired but I couldn't miss the CHOOs and of course I had to wear a pair of Jimmy's for the occasion right? My top is also a sequinned one which kind of gets a bit lost in the photos. BTW You might have kind of noticed that I'm kind of into this one earring trend, as I think I've had in about 2/3 of my most recent outfit posts- at least I get to wear all those pairs of which I've lost one.
