yeah my mistake, i was reading fast and i read australia... stupid old me...
its just that i hate how in english austria is austria and in finnish its closer to its real german language meaning (word east in it))as in österreich, correct?

sorry

haha, no problem

yes, 'österreich' is very correct - do you speak german?

i think the oversized zip up sweater was only shipped to two stores in the NY area last week.

 

[RoseMary]

wir könnten jetzt alle die sachen kaufen, und an die leute verscherbeln, die nix bekomen haben.... *ggg*

no, havn't been to the one at the graben..
gonna go home this weekend and see what's left in the store in klagenfurt..

okay...
hey, are you from klagenfurt? i'm from villach

by the way: my mum was in klagenfurt but they don't have the whole collection, for example they don't have the jeans...

hello everyone...i absolutely the black tailored coat, but ihave a HUGE problem!!!
i'm currently in rome where H&M does not exist ...my boyriend lives in frankfurt, where the collection seems to be fully available, so i asked him to buy the coat for me!! The only question is, in which size????
From what i've read on this thread the whole collection seems to be on the big side...do you think i should stick to my size or go for a smaller one??

i would choose 'your size'. my sister has 36/38 and she took the blazer in 36 and it fits perfectly. the shirts are big though...

i checked it out this morning after class on rue de Rennes... there was like ONE rack of it... and there weren't many things left. some shirts in S, skirts in the size 40+, a slinky dress in size 40+, that pale colored raincoatish thing in 34 and 40+ and lots of those jeweled camis in all sizes (there were significantly more yellow than blue)... so i picked up a cami. it looked REALLY big on the hanger, but fit really well

^At least there WERE signs of th trench and a dress.

In all the London branches...all thats left are the toot of the collection: the T-shirts, some key rings and those hideous chain mail bags.

 

[daisyDuck]

and those hideous chain mail bags.

That's what is left in Finland, at least in my home town!! And they are really heavy those bags
I was really suprised to see some of those beige trench coats still hanging in the store. Maybe it's because it is starting to be really cold already at this time of the year and people invest more in staying warm than fashionable, some at least

Anyone who wants some more of the collection

I popped to Oxford st after lectures today. I was there around 6.30. The must have had another delivery of *some* stuff. They had,

white shirts,
petrol blue sleeveless dresses,
beige dress shirts,
vest tops,
(one) denim pencil skirt
tee shirts,(blue and pinkish "stella" ones, the ones with the small chain and the design on them)
the long black jacket
keyrings
chain bags
black tulip skirts
embroidered jackets

I bought a beige dress shirt. There were loads of girls swarming around. I'd go if you want any of the above.

they had the teal dress?!? i'm so jealous. they're selling on ebay now for US$250+! i can't believe it. and of course, there's nothing left in the nyc stores.

I went into the Paris Haussman branch of H&M at around 4-5pm ish yesterday and all they had left was a couple of measily racks of Stella. For the large part the camis in yellow and teal. The chain mail bags and lots of long scarfs. This was my first opportunity to check out the stuff and I can't believe its all gone. Does any one know what was originally available - whether they've received all their stuff or whether they are going to get more...In the window they had all this great stuff and downstairs zilch!!!

 

[miss6o]

haha, no problem

yes, 'österreich' is very correct - do you speak german?

yep, a bit had it in school

Trying to put out the requested picture of my stella jumper, not sure if it works though but here we go...

I just realized that I have no good pics of the jumpsuit. In this not very sucsessfull pic I wore it with a loose white tee over and the stella scarf (it's cold here and we were just getting ready to go out....). It looks kinda slobby here though.. this is a size 34 which i normally wear and it fits good, kinda loose.. it looks like I have a huuge stomach in this picture, haha, but please dont think I have, it's just that here my friend is pulling my loose tee (you can see his fingers throught the fabric at the left side pulling it). I don't think this picture makes the jumpsuit justice cause it is a really cool piece of clothing, I'll try to find a better picture of it from when I wore it without tshirt and scarf and all that stuff over it, just the jumpsuit and a leatherbelt...

 

[lumy_]

Kind of like this but still not a very good pic of it and of course I forgot to put my boots on..

 

[liberty33r1b]

^hey, you look really nice here!!!

 

[lumy_]

thank you!! i really love this piece, it did look better irl though

 

[RoseMary]

i agree with liberty - you look good, therese ;-)

 

[lucy92]

i really like the layering with the jumpsuit.

sniff*
i never got to even see the jumpsuit in real life!

 

[PrettyBlueEyes]

really nice jumper therese!

This morning I found the stella ribbon sweater in the pink/white color I'm so happy now! I travelled like 5 hours to get it

I have this coat and I got it in a bigger size than what fit me in the other things and what I usually wear elsewhere. I normally wear a US 8 on the top and I got a US 10 (40). I also tried on the wrap dress and 40 was way too big; the 36 and 38 fit much better.
