Can you believe I scored all three of these for under $75?! Yep, $75 TOTAL!
I have a love/hate relationship with H & M. It's kind of like Forever 21. Sometimes you go in there & they won't let you in the dressing room with all the amazing finds you got, other times it's just a bunch of cheap crap, you can scrounge for hours & won't find anything special. This trip however was epic. I'm dying to go back again when I don't have the girls with me so I can really dig...although that might be dangerous, the Spring 2012 line is really phenomenal. I'm completely & utterly impressed.
Here are a few of the ways I plan on wearing these looks...
This the one that pulled me into H & M last week. The beautiful, juicy orange on such a sweet shape is so fantastic. It's has a light lovely chiffon feel but with a pair of flats I think it's perfect for a Spring weekend. Or maybe those indigo suede pumps for a date night?
Dress, H&M $24.95
Necklace, Madewell last season
Flats, Gap City Flat from last fall
Heels, Steve Madden suede pump circa 2005
I mentioned this dress on my Twitter & asked if it was 'Fab' or 'Fail' for Sarah's 30th bday party. I'd say 9 out of 10 of you appreciated what a knock-out find this dress is. One of the big trends this Spring is metallic & since this dress is completely covered in sparkly sequins I think it fits the bill. I'm picturing liquid liner, a stained berry lip & a messy sock bun right on top of your head...
H&M Sequin Shift, $19.95
Platforms, Via Spiga from last fall at Nordstrom
I was instantly drawn to this dress & then just as quickly put it down because of my heartfelt aversion to light blue denim. But then I said, this is really really cute. And kind of funky vintage. Maybe I could make an exception...& now I'm so glad I did! I think with my quirky hiking boots that have a red zipper up the backs, my hipster glasses, a clunky gold watch & a classic big girl bag to even it out this look will be one I pull over & over this Spring. Very Quinn Fabray if you ask me.
Dress, H&M, $29.95
Boots, Steve Madden Cablee (on sale!)
Glasses, Eyefunc via My Eye Doctor
Rose Gold Watch, Marc Jacobs 'Henry' watch, from last year but this season's is pretty darn cute too
Bag, Louis Vuitton 'Tivoli'
I found all of my dresses at the Columbia Mall store but I think they're all a part of the new Spring line so hopefully you can find them at a H&M near you. i would've linked to each individual dress but H&M's website is down. Booo.
