Orlando finally got an H&M! As I mentioned last week, the kids and I made a little trip over there to check it out. Shopping with two boys is less meandering and browsing, more grab and go. So, I grabbed some great items and prayed that they fit. Which they did. Yeah!
Here are a few photos of my purchases. Forgive the towel on my head and the wet hair. I took these pictures quickly after my post-Zumba shower and before I had to leave to pick up the boys at preschool.
Let’s start with the lounge pants. They get an A+ for comfort. I bought these in a medium. I’ll say that they are a very generous medium which makes me feel good. 🙂 By the end of the day they get pretty stretched out and become kind of saggy, baggy though. Since I don’t wear them out of the house, I really don’t mind.
They have a drawstring and pockets. The pockets probably make me look a little saddle-bag-ish…
Onto the little black dress! I love this dress! I’m currently looking for an occasion to wear it. The skirt and sleeves are very flow-y. The empire waist and peasant neckline are quite flattering as well.
I have to share some photos of the shoes too. These were not purchased at H&M but I think they rock, especially the bows. Again, looking for an occasion to wear them…
Check out the awesome bracelet I picked up. Don’t you love the colors?
Now the sweet, frilly tank top! I’ve actually worn this out to dinner! I really like how feminine this top is. The pale pink sheer fabric and silver bead work is just lovely.
I did not wear this top with lounge pants like in the photo, however.
I put this cute gray sweater over it.
I love the silver threads that are woven into the sweater. It’s a nice touch.
The last thing that I purchased during my grab-n-go shopping trip was this sweet white flower. It can be worn as a pin on a jacket or sweater. It also has an alligator clip so it can be worn in your hair as well. I am not able to currently locate my sweet, white flower and suspect that my two little culprits have made off with it. I’ll question them later.
I’m pleased with all that I was able to find especially when I was warned that they had nothing but winter stuff in stock. Sweaters and heavy coats just won’t do for Florida winters. I was pleasantly surprised by their selection of non-winter wear.
