H&M Online Haul

 HEY!

Did you hear?

H&M WENT ONLINE!

H&M finally went online and opened up an online store. I honestly don't know what took them so long. To celebrate the opening of their online shop they offered a bunch of 'Opening Deals'. Which were basically online only deals for some of their products.

I had to take advantage of these deals (and some other great pieces).  My package just came in the mail. Check out my haul below.


This was one of the 'Opening Offers' I got this tank in grey (above) and black for $5.00. I got one for myself and one for my sister. It's a simple tank with the lace detail on the front. I think this is great for work. Since both myself and my sister work in an office setting where we are moving around a lot working with our clients. This shirt is comfortable enough to wear all day and also appropriate to wear without a jacket if we get hot. 


I got this oversized shirt as a basic. It looked really comfortable in the pics on the website. After receiving it in the mail today, I'm not sure if I'm going to keep it. I got it in my size, but I think it's still a little too oversized for me. I may end up keeping it. 


This cardigan I just had to have. I found a coupon on Retail Me Not for 20% off one piece and this was the highest priced item so the 20% came off of this. H&M calls this a cardigan, which in shape it is. But it feels and wears like a sweater. I love this piece, but it's too big for me. I need to go a size down. 


This was an 'Opening Deal' and I got the jacket for $10.00. This is a lightweight jacket and it doesn't have any buttons or pockets. It looks like there are pockets there, but they are the fake ones. I love this jacket, it's perfect for the fall. 


Close up of the pattern


I didn't realize that these pants and the jacket that I ordered above were in the same pattern. These pants are made out of the same fabric of the jacket but has a much lighter feel. These pants can easily look like pajamas if worn incorrectly. These call for some great chunky heels or wedges.

I got the pants in black too. Here is detail of the hem of the pants. I love the hem. It's different and lays on the food differently, creating a different shape.  This cut also shows off your fabulous shoes!


These pants were also part of the "Opening Offers" sale. I got these in this taupe color (above) and a black pair. These have some stretch in them and will be great for work...if they fit. H&M runs so small! I knew that they run small so I went up a size, I should have gone up two sizes. I was able to button up the pants, but I can't feasibly wear these and breath. I have to exchange these for a larger size. 


H&M still has some 'Opening Offers' on their website. They will be available until August 22. So act fast to ensue that they have the color and size you need. A lot of the products have sold out already. 

This took forever to ship out and get to me. But I'll forgive H&M. I'm sure they were bombarded with orders from other excited H&M clients finally able to order their H&M goods from the comforts of their home. Hopefully future orders will not take as long to ship out. 

The other disappointing aspect of this order is that these products cannot be returned to the stores!!! Hopefully this will change in the future. I'm not sure if I will be able to make online purchases anymore  knowing how inconvienient the return policy is on my life. I'm not sure I would have initially made these purchases if I read the return policy before placing the order. 

Also looking back at the pics of my order, I really need to add some more color into my wardrobe. I was told in the past that I wear all black and white and I looked at her like she was crazy. Then I went home and looked in my closet. She was right. Since then I have been trying to incorporate more color into my wardrobe. Looks like I failed.
