The H&M Thread #2

[splashofcolour]

KamenKutak: I have the white top and it's a reasonably tight fit (not majorly tight but not the loose kind of style that hangs down either) and it'll only cover your butt if you're short, I'm 5'0 and it covers my butt just about enough to wear it with leggings.

 

[KamenKutak]

oh... i think it will be to short for me to wear it with leggings i'm 5'7 (171 cm)

thank you for your answer

 

[Edita]

Amazing buys! Really

I got the mcqueen like dress. It was the last one! I had my sister pick it up. Still need to try it on. "Fingers crossed"

I've finally been able to get my hands on the pocket-belt...

plus i ordered the black maxi-dress and the butterfly ring.

my favourite scarf at the moment and well, i got the dress as well - both already some time ago but i wanted to wait to get more stuff and post it all but unfortunately the last time i went shopping i did not find anything! still waiting for a parcel to arrive-

nitrolicious.com & hm.com



what sometimes bothers me is the sizing H&M has - i usually wear xs or small, 34 or 36 in some cases but for example the tiger dress in the pic is a 36 and is almost to small at the waist?! on another occasions even some xs seem to big and then you hardly fit into 36 or in some cases 38 with pants - like really - i switch between xs up to 38 - why can't they decide and have a s (which is small), an m (which is medium) and and a l (large) and not make an xs big so your swimming in it and a 36 tiny like a 32 or whatever

has anybody seen this jacket? I've been to 3 H&Ms (chicago included) and nobody has seen it!

I bought that jacket MariyaCroft! (It comes in S M L) But...I actually returned it because irl the colours are REALLY bright-the yellow and pink sequins are flourencent not like they look in the pic, and also as nice as the pattern is it's just on a cotton quite flimsy cardigan I feel it would have been so much nicer on a more structured jacket. I may jsut be being quite critical thought because I'm trying to limit my spending at the moment to more investment pieces :S
Sorry I only saw you wanted it after I returned I could have sent you it

But I must say I got home after returning it and I saw this jacket from the Stella Mc Resort collection which it toally reminds me of (is that just me??)and thought hmm should I have kept it..but I think I made the right decision!

JennyR i love the leather t shirt as well.I am glad I didnt buy their black one as it was really nice and all but i didnt want a black one- so glad they have made a tan one for FW!

lifeistiffanyblu i've totally changed my mind and decided I love the black tee more after seeing a pic of it on a blog, also I think it would go with more of my stuff..do you know how much it was? I asked but they don't have it in the newcastle store and now I'm desperate for it

 

[honeycombchild]

I saw that the McQueen esque dress comes in a little jacket too. Soft and draped. Much nicer use of the print!

 

[MariyaCroft]

JennyR--thank you so much for the info! aww man, if only you didnt return it! i would have for sure bought it from you

Today I bought the perfect white dress. Ive been looking for one for two years but they were always see through found this one on the sale rack $15.00 from Logg line.

Have my eye on a mini white top hat for a concert.

Also could someone tell me what line that Mcqueen style dress is from?
Thanks.

Dress fit. Nicely

There's a jacket?! I didn't see that. Now I need to go back...

yes, remember that striped black and white flowly blazer a while back in the thread? it also came in black....it's by divided black.

the "mcqueen" printed jacket it shaped just like that

 

[diesanni]

I've finally been able to get my hands on the pocket-belt...

I'm undecided about that belt. Could you please take a picture of what it really looks like when you get it?

H&M's July Drop

^ i like those July fasion items:

source: instyle.co.uk



especially the Parka! great looking! hope the quality is good as well


now these 2 are a Mc_queen-rip-off like from a school-book - not even slightly tried to make it less rip-offish h&m and zara really copy more and more so it seems:

 

[lucy92]

MariyaCroft, i saw that white jacket you were looking for with the sequins on it. it looks as if it runs quite large. it is NOT a divided trend item so it might show up at your store anyway. i wasnt impressed with it at all. it looked like something you'd find in 1980's Boca raton, Florida on an 80 year old.

 

[The_Ida]

OK those pearl earrings I posted before...they're GIGANTIC. Do not want. I want these though - they'll arrive in the Århus stores this week:

sofiesblog.dk

They're already sold out in Cph...

 

[*k.a.t.e*]

I bought the Alexander McQueen style jacket today in the same print as the as the bodycon dress someone posted earlier - it's the same draped front shape as the black and white striped jacket that everyone's been after and it was only £14.99, love it!
