So it's that time of year again. H&M revealed today who its latest designer collaboration is. I remember when I found out, this time last year, that it was Lanvin. I was driving home from the beach with my mom and sisters and read about it on Twitter. This year, I found out the same way, except it was 6AM and I was waking up to go to work. Needless to say, I'm very excited about the newest designer to be added to the H&M collabo roster. For Lanvin, I waited 11 hours in line. This November, based on the images I've seen so far, I'm thinking it will be something more like 12-15. Will you be waiting in line for Versace?!
Quick sneak peek at some of the goodies I picked up from the Lanvin for H&M collaboration. My sisters and I waited in line for 10 hours on Friday night in the freezing cold! It was all worth it though - I ended up spending way too much and am in LOVE with my purchases. I'm especially obsessed with the plum coloured lipstick! It is such a rich, gorgeous colour and goes on really smoothly. I was also surprised at how shiny it was! Can't wait to wear it over the holidays.
PS. Sorry for the quality of the photos - I took them really quickly in between studying.
The video and lookbook for the Lanvin for H&M collection were released today and I have to say, I am speechless. I want almost everything from the collection, as well as a few pieces from the menswear! The top dress is the PERFECT dress for New Years, and the one below it is timeless and classic Lanvin. Not to the mention the shoes, the sunglasses and that showstopper red necklace. The clock is ticking my friends, yet November 20th cannot seem to come fast enough! Are any of you going to line up?!
Here is the accompanying video where you can see the full collection. You really should watch it from start to finish - it's amazing.
This photo thoroughly stresses me out. It's the first look at the Lanvin for H&M collaboration. Why does it stress me out you ask? Because I'm already planning how many days ahead I need to line up, how many people I'm going to rob/borrow money from and how much of an increase I should ask for on my credit card limit, simply so I can get my hands on EVERY. SINGLE. PIECE. See why I'm stressing?
All of my dreams are beginning to come true. Well, one in particular, at least. WWD announced on Tuesday that the newest Target-designer collaboration would be with none other than Mulberry, the label behind the much-coveted Alexa bag. WWD wrote:
"Target is partnering with Mulberry on an Oct. 10 introduction of a limited edition handbag collection, Mulberry for Target. It will be available in most stores and at target.com through Dec. 24"
Being that I live in Canada and us not having Target, I've never been able to get my hands on any of the collabs they've done in the past (read: Rodarte) however this is one I just CANNOT miss. My sisters and I have already started scheming and I can tell you that we will definitely be in the nearest of the 50 states on October 10, in line, willing to do whatever it takes to get our hands on the collection.
Madonna's new video (shot by Steven Klein) for her collaboration with Dolce & Gabbana. Not gonna lie, girl's still got it. I'm not sure if I love the sunglasses though. Thoughts?
