Quick H&M Haul!

On Friday 28th February I was in town (I spent the day in court which was really boring) and a friend that I was with had to return something to H&M during our lunch hour and while I was in there I spotted this really nice skirt so as the day progressed I decided to go back to H&M after court was dismissed and see what they had. At the time I was wearing one of those basic H&M tube skirts that cost pennies and is it just me or do those skirts lose their stretch if you wear them for the day? Mine had faded a bit anyway due to many washes but it was losing it's stretch so it wasn't a tight mini skirt like it was supposed to be anymore but ANYWAY what I am trying to say is that when I saw this skirt I thought I would try it out and probably change into it because the basic tube skirt wasn't doing me any favours. I tried two different skirts on and ended up buying a really cute pleather, cross texture black mini skirt with silver zip detail on either side (insert cool photo that I took of Nina Nesbitt as she wore the exact same skirt the day I went to see her on the 13th Feb how freaking awesome - H&M don't have this skirt on their website so make do with this photo of Nina modelling it for you honestly you can't even see but oh well)

The next day, the Saturday I was supposed to meet a friend that I hadn't seen in a long time to go on a spree in Primark however her train was delayed by a couple of hours so I was wondering around (guess where) H&M for a while before picking up some cute things. Normally when I shop H&M in store (and online to be fair) it does tend to be sale items and I rarely purchase full priced items unless it's accessories like bags or shoes. The pleather skirt the previous day was a good buy at £14.99 and I was impressed that I managed to bag a cute black v-neck chiffon dress at just £14.99 too, a chiffon jumper style crop top which had PEONIES on it which was a cheap £9.99, a black scuba fitted mini skirt that was sale priced at £5 and lastly an adorable little box bag for a decent £7 which is so cute that I wrote a whole post about the bag itself and its many wonders.

THEN Sunday I was at work so I wasn't shopping but on Monday, I asked my sister Sophie if she wanted to come into town with me and honestly we were probably just going to get Starbucks then leave but her friend and my other sister Chloe joined us too and of course I ended up buying the kids McDonald's and reduced chocolate in Smith's before buying myself the dress of all dresses in (you guessed it) H&M! It's beautiful and I love it - it's half sleeve, navy blue velvet top half which is a sweetheart neckline with almost black chiffon from the sweetheart neckline to the neck plus a chiffon skirt. I'll insert a cheeky photo below as I probably haven't explained all too well what I am on about.

This isn't the exact dress as H&M didn't have it online but just imagine this ASOS one, without the deep plunge, half/three-quarter length sleeves, a chiffon skirt and the top velvet part in navy and then voila - I did see the dress on eBay actually when googling it

To sum up, I have ADORED H&M's stuff recently (so gorg) and I keep browsing the website almost everyday I swear I do it subconsciously but I love love love their new arrivals and just a lot of their shoes that they have available now too so when payday arrives the Friday after next, I will be there don't you worry.

Thanks for reading!
