h&m finds

hello there! i went into h&m this weekend to look around and i ended up finding some amazing things! first up, these heels in a wonderful sherbet orange color. i love them and think they would look so good with some navy tights!

 

and check out the cute little zippers in the back.











up next, is this little lace number, which i think was meant to be just a dress. it came in a dusty blue, black, and the perfect pale nude color. i will wear it as a layering piece with skirts and cardigans or under dresses.
 

i love all the detailing and the cap sleeves. i went with a size 10 for this dress - so true to size/one size up, depending.

up next was ann embroidered jacket that reminded me a bit of an anthropologie piece:






















i love jackets - i think they are perfect for looking pulled together quickly. this one i was open to trying on, but not sure how it would look.

i loved the cut of the jacket. i think it would work well over dresses at work too.  
for sizing reference, i am wearing a 6 and felt that it fit really well and true to size. i am usually between a 6-8, but because i have more narrow shoulders, i tend to fit 6's best.

the last find is quite special for me. i have been looking for a "leather jacket" for some time. i have seen quite a few good looking ones from anthropologie, target, and even forever21 - but none of them were quite right. i wanted a jacket that was still feminine and girly, but had the tailoring of a motorcycle jacket. i have been keeping my eyes peeled for over a year. it's harder to find that one would think! until now.


i was looking at one last rack before heading to the fitting room and i spotted this fabulous "leatherette" jacket. there was only one... and it was a size 8! perfect!



















i love the nude color, the little pindotting is extra special and i think the grey inserts make it look unique.




















i loved it! it must have been a new arrival because all the sales associates at the register loved the jacket and had never seen it before. i can't wait to wear it... i wonder what it would look best over? i am thinking maybe one of the tucker for target dresses?

until next time,
S
