My Friend Wanted My Thoughts on What to Buy at H&M—I Said These Pieces

H&M is often a go-to shop for many due to its wide arrange of items, including basics and trend-driven pieces. In fact, one of my good friends considers the retailer to be one of her staples when she's looking to add a few fresh items into her wardrobe. On that note, she recently asked me for my thoughts on some of the new H&M items I'm personally loving that she might be into as well.
I ended up texting her six key pieces that I think could work well given their versatile and forward nature. Essentially, I think the edit could pair quite nicely with other basics in her closet. Intrigued? Keep scrolling to check out the six items in question. I pulled out a range of other items that could pique your interest as well.
