Last Friday, I had the honor of being invited to a special press opening of the new stand-alone Jimmy Choo boutique in Union Square, San Francisco. Waiters with mimosas and tea sandwiches greeted press and bloggers as we walked in the door, but I couldn't keep my eyes off all the sparkles in the room from the Jimmy Choo shoes, bags, sunglasses, and more that filled the boudoir inspired interior. Let's just say Carrie Bradshaw would have cried in joy to see walls and walls of shoes line the entire boutique.
Right when I walked in I ran into fellow Glam blogger, Kristen of Stylenik. It was so nice to be able to drool over all the goodies with a friend I hadn't seen for a long time.

For those SF gals who live in flats, don't worry there are plenty of sparkly and colorful flats available. I fell in love with the low-heeled peep toe wedges (pictured right) that are just perfect to look fashionable in, while still braving some of those big SF hills. I of course, need them in patent nude, thank you very much.
The boutique has everything you need from Jimmy Choo and even has special items unique to San Francisco, especially for us fashion tech lovers. The limited edition glitter iPad case ($495) is available now and features a glitter pattern from the upcoming fall 2012 collection.

This clear lucite clutch complete with chain cuff was one of my favorites at the Jimmy Choo boutique.

Jimmy Choo also has some gorgeous handbags. I was eyeing the gold metallic one and was so surprised at how soft the leather was. Dreamy!
Towards the end of the event, Anh from 9 to 5 Chic arrived! It's hard to believe that the two of us live in the same city and have never met. Oh wait, I know why it's because I have a toddler and very rarely am able to go out to fashion events at the cocktail hour. We've been friends on Twitter for awhile and she was just as wonderful and lovely in person. She had on a killer outfit that day.
The next time you are in Union Square, stop by the Jimmy Choo boutique at 166 Geary. The store manager Bruce Rodriguez has been working in luxury fashion in SF for years. He has exquisite taste so let him or any of the staff there know if there's anything special you are looking for!
