The H&M Thread

[MissyJG]

I'm gonna check out the pink/nude dress. I love it but I'm not sure if I could pull if off as it is kinda.. I dunno.. grannyish? Ok maybe not grannyish but you know what I mean..

The pink dress looks great on both girls, it makes me consider using my 30 € only in store usable coupon but now Im afraid it will be sold out soon......

And i've got a question: did the latest desinger collaboration items run as huge as the first ones? I only bought some Lagerfeld and Stella McCartney stuff, and was surprised, how big even the smallest size was. Now Im thinking about an Sonia Rykiel online buy, since I cant see myself queue and fight .

Comments from people (and their readers) blogging about their JC hauls have said that the JC collection was not as 'limited' as the earlier collabs.

I learnt this the hard way, but having only been exposed to H&M for a cumulative 6 months and H&M online for a cumulative 3 months- over 2 years, I think I've done pretty well. You can reasonably expect the latest collections to get marked down at least once before 'selling out' now.

If you're hesitant on such a purchase, by all means- it's better to be safe than sorry! But if you have access to a store, go feel up the quality of material before you decide. It's usually a pretty good indicator of how many returns it'll get (one can only imagine how many JC shoes were returned). It certainly won't sell out entirely the first few weeks it gets released so you have time to do a small 'grope' test.

The SR lingerie collection made it through to the 'outlet' end of the site after I bought the items marked down a first time. However, I haven't seen this with the other collections I chanced upon... so take what I say with a grain of salt!

caroulemapoule how is the leather- is it soft as it looks? TIA!

 

[crystal7]

Yes it is. It was 1299,- DKK. Which is approximately $240.

Gorgeous leather jacket

Got this stuff recently...

REALLY love these trousers!

I love these pumps, unfortunately H&M's size 36 is too big

These days you get 20% off the most expensive item you purchase in H&M shops if you bring your H&M Club card

Ah, so that's how it works. I saw the signs in the stores and wondered how I'd get the -20%... But the Club Card is new, isn't it? Never heard of it before...

It's not new, I've had mine for years

I never knew that! Is there a minimum purchase and is it every H&M? or limited to some countries only? I handed my card when I bought $100 worth of items at the counter and nothing was discounted.

Maybe we have to verbally request it each in-store transaction?

It's only for a week or so. And possibly only in Denmark. You don't have to ask for it, it will be discounted automatically if the offer stands in your country. But I guess you'd know, there are huge signs all over the store (at least here in DK)

Ahh I see! That's really interesting! I'm so used to getting updates both online and in mail. They do have these 20% vouchers they mail out each new season.

This is also rather off topic, but I'm probably going to frequent this thread daily for insight to H&M stuffs... because very soon I'll be back Down Under: the land with no H&M. And I'd even be so desperate to beg everyone be my eyes and ears. D:

Does anyone know when this trench came out, how much it cost and whether it came in a navy blue? If you own it, can you list the materials and the weave too, pretty please?

Additionally, does anyone have pictures of them trying this trenchcoat (image below) on? If you own it, what was your experience with it? The material is synthetic, but does it keep the wind out? Does the material feel horrible? Is the way the 'twill' weave done another reason not to recommend it? Is it loose compared to other H&M sizes you take? (And any extra information you can offer)

[luckynines]

Does anybody know if these are available in the UK?

 

[scara]

i was really lucky today while shopping at h&m. i wanted to get a red longsleeve shirt, and all there was left of red shirts was one in my size!!

 

[miss-am]

Woops, got this dress yesterday.

Ditte - couldn´t find "your" new leather jacket yesterday. It´s so cool.

 

[disfordangerous]

Oh man, I accidentally unsubscribed ages ago, and I only just realised..

 

[caroulemapoule]

Oh, I'm sorry, beam. They have it in my H&M here in Aalborg. They should have it in Århus too then.

 

[PinkPrincess113]

caroule love that leather jacket! congrats on a great purchase as usual

miss-am you look cute in that dress! i love the dress but since i'm 5'4" i would prob get it hemmed shorter, right above my knees. i absolutely love the color, looks much more expensive than H&M
