As it says on the tin really, am very short of time, but just 'reporting in' from a shopping trip today. Mainly Christmas shopping (i.e. not for me!) but a few things I felt were too good to miss:
 |
| H&M sparkly top dress - really nice - £14.99 - bought? Kerching - you bet!! |
 |
| H&M hessian sack.... er no wait, actually long knit tunic - for some reason I can't quite fathom - also really like. Bought. £24.00 - unsure why so much more than dress? |
 |
| H&M zip front dress. Liked. Bought. OH decalres it tarty (?!). Ignoring him for the time being, naturellement - until I get YOUR verdict...! |
 |
| H&M red crops. Similar to some from Boden which I never got around to ordering. Didn't get. (a) too springlike. (b) Bad fit at rear. |
 |
| Sparkly skirt from Topshop. Velvet fabric, stretchy. Should have been great. |
 |
| But how annoying it is when the patterns don't match at the sides?! Didn't get. Not terribly flattering over the lumps and bumps anyway I felt. Probably made worse by fact that tried on over trousers as was getting fed up / tired - so didn't give it my best shot! |
 |
| Shopping ensemble (only included for benefit of decent lighting!) |
 |
| Love the H&M dress - am out this evening and am wearing it :-) |
That H&M dress is stunning. 14.99? Unbelievable. Great buy. And no, the zippy one is not tarty ... what would the OH know about such things ?!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the H & M dresses.
ReplyDeletelove the H and M dress - may pop into H and M tomorrow as I am in town :)
ReplyDeleteThe H&M dress with sparkles really suits - it's a really good neckline on you. And fantastic price - I didn't see that one on my travels today but admittedly I wasn't looking for sequinned dresses. I don't have much call for them - even the one I have has only had one outing so far. The black one with zip - is not dissimilar to the Zara red one you have? I personally think to stay with the Zara one and leave the H&M one this time. The hessian sack tunic - sometimes we just like things - good enough reason. I do that as well even though I should know better and everyone is telling me otherwise. You look comfortable and happy with it. The Topshop skirt - they need a slap. A big slap.
ReplyDeleteI like the 'tarty' dress! I like the zip detail and I think you could always wear a colourful scarf. The sparkly H&M number is a bar-har-gain and looks really good on you. I like 'the sack' this too could be dressed up with a zingy scarf or maybe cinched in with a belt. Boo to the topshop skirt, not matching the pattern is just lazy.
ReplyDeleteLove the first two H&M things you bought, the sparkly dress is fab!
