H&M Has So Many Expensive-Looking Dresses, Tops and Jeans Right Now
We all have the brands we turn to when we're feeling a little uninspired with our wardrobes. Mine is H&M. Throughout every stage in my style journey (and life), from being a struggling fashion intern in my early 20s to becoming a bona fide editor, H&M has been constant and unwavering. I get just as much of a kick shopping there now as I did 10 years ago, and that's something I can't say about every store I bought from when I was 22.
Most recently, I indulged in an H&M shopping spree before heading on my summer holiday, and what I found on the website seriously impressed me. By the time I got to the end of the new arrivals, I had added so many pieces to my wish list I knew I'd inevitably have to whittle it down. The thing is I really struggled—there were so many expensive-looking staples for both summer and beyond,I couldn't decide between them. What a problem to have, right?
A selection of the items that went straight into my H&M basket.
While going through them with a fine-tooth comb, I realised almost all of the items I had saved fell into one of three product categories: dresses, tops and jeans. We all know how handy these garments are, especially on the days when you just don't have the time nor the brainpower to style something more complex. (This, my friends, is my reality every day.)
Assuming you are also on the lookout for easy outfit solutions, I've decided to share my H&M wish list with you. Featuring the best dresses, tops and jeans from the brand, scroll on to see them, and you'll never feel as if you have nothing to wear again.
