Isabel Marant pour H&M: The Showroom

Believe it or not, it’s less than a week left until H&M’s latest collaboration 

with the one and only Isabel Marant, will hit stores. On November 14, we will be all lined up in front of H&M Băneasa Shoppping City and Unirea Shopping Center,

 waiting to get our hands on at least one cool item from this capsule collection. 

I hope you’ve started saving the moment you  first heard the rumor, 

cause there are some items that a true Isabel Marant fan just can’t miss.

 I’m saying this because this collection, as well as the ones before it, are truly designed for the fans. If you love Isabel Marant’s Parisian bohemian aesthetic, you must be very excited right now. Personally, I sighed and sighed over those gorgeous fringe boots Giovanna Battaglia was rocking a few seasons ago at the Fashion Weeks.

 Hopefully, next week I’ll take them home with me! 

Last week I was able to actually see and try on all the pieces and I was extremely impressed by the quality and details of the leather pants. So if you have’em on you wishlist, you should definitely buy them cause they’re worth it. The shoes look better than I expected and the booties are not only cool and chic, but also comfortable. 

There were some other pieces that caught my eye, but I must admit I was 

expecting more from the denim and jewelry department. All in all, it’s a collection 

worth seeing and some pieces worth adding to a true fashionista’s collection. 

Good luck and have fun shopping!

Isabel Marant pour H&M: The Collection

The wait is finally over!

The first images of H&M’s latest designer collaboration with Isabel Marant are finally online.
 In the lookbook pictures we can see Alek Wek, Lou Doillon, Milla Jovovich and Constance Jablonski 
model pieces that echo Marant's Parisian bohemian aesthetic perfectly. 
Surprisingly, the collection not even does it not disappoint, 

 but looks exactly as we had pictured it in our dreams. At least I was. 

The trophy embellished jacket and those fringe booties look equally amazing as they did in the original designer version. I just can’t wait to see them live and take them home with me. 
They will certainly make my Autumn wardrobe stand out. 

Are you as excited as I am? If so, start making your wishlist now, 

before the collection lands in stores on November 14. 

H&M Autumn-Winter 2013 Collection + News

It’s not even Summer yet and I’m dreaming about Autumn-Winter Collections...

but it’s not just any collection, it’s THE collection. As you’ve probably noticed, I’ve become more and more addicted to H&M. And that’s only cause they’re getting and better!

 Last week I had the chance to see this year’s Autumn-Winter Collection in the H&M showroom. The mix between the dramatic atmosphere and the masculine style is the essence of this collection. Pieces like the tuxedo, the sequin dress, the  short evening jacket, the leather pants, the leather jacket and the thick oversized sweater are showcased by the luxurious fabrics: wool, silk, leather or velvet. This collection is a mix of contrasts: bohemian inspired pieces, the dramatic atmosphere suggested by the tuxedo and the sequin dresses, oversized sweaters and masculine cuts and the...

oh, so present and loved, leather pieces. I am in love, how about you?

The collection will be available in stores and online starting the 5th of September.

Maison Martin Margiela in the H&M Showroom

Yesterday afternoon I had the pleasure to visit the H&M Showroom for the first time. After postponing several times, finally, I managed to step inside this...magical place.

Why magical, you might ask yourself?! Well...I love clothes, I love colors and fabrics and I love to see the many amazing forms and shapes that can be created from them. 

Speaking of amazing cuts and shapes, H&M's newest collaboration is, in my opinion,

the best one yet. Although, Margiela's designs are not everyone's cup of tea and it's true that I don't see myself rocking every single piece of the collection on the streets of my city, either, but...and this is an enormous, gigantic BUT....these pieces are veritable works of art. What I love most is that every single piece from this collection is a reissued piece from the Margiela archives. Isn't that amazing?! It is indeed, a collection created for the fashion lovers out there and if you are one of them, you definitely can't miss it! 

Personally, I loved every single one of the dresses I've seen, from the figure hugging cashmere grey sweater dress, to that amazing and I mean AMAZING red draped dress. Still, my favorite will be revealed later, after (please, God!) I'll get my hands on it. Unfortunately, I can't stay and chat any longer, cause I'm still at work, but I'll tell you more these next few days. Anyway, I can't wait for it to hit stores, so tomorrow, 

I'll be there! So, if you're in Băneasa Shopping City and you see some crazy people inside the H&M store, I'll be there, too, so come say hi if you get the chance!

Kisses
