Versace for H&M Preview

Are you counting the days until the glam Versace for H&M collection hits the stores? Will you be lining up?

Last week, I got to take a sneak peek at the collection, and was happily surprised with the quality of the pieces. From embedded studs, to soft leather, to vibrant colors – it all looked very good. But if I had to choose just one piece to splurge on (sigh…any purchase nowadays is a splurge), it would be the high-waisted palm-tree-printed skinny jeans – hands down, my favorite.

Which Versace for H&M pieces are on your wishlist? Share in the comments.

Check out more photos from the sneak peek on our Facebook!

Versace x H&M Sneak Peek!

We should say SPASIBO to Vogue Russia for showcasing the upcoming Versace x H&M collab in such detail! Loud prints, body-con silhouettes, and gold, gold, gold all over the place – just what I had expected! I am definitely planning to pick up a few pieces from this collab, especially the silk dresses, and the bold jewelry. At this point, November 17th could not come soon enough.

Are you as excited as me? Or is this collab leaving you cold? Let me know in the comments!

More photos after the jump!

Versace for H&M Fall 2011 Sneak Peek

Exciting news this morning! The next H&M  designer collab will be with…VERSACE! And though I haven’t really been too into the Versace look most recently, the thought of some iconic pieces being remade for H&M makes me feel very happy (and hopeful). I say, bring back the black and gold looks of the 90s! Yes? No? Are you excited about this announcement? Dish in the comments!

H&M is proud to announce that its fall 2011 designer collaboration will be with one of the world’s most legendary fashion brands, Versace. Designed by its creative director Donatella Versace, the exclusive collection will look back to the vibrant heritage of the brand, full of leather, print, colour and exuberance in exclusive materials at fantastic H&M prices. The collection will include lines for women, men and selected pieces for the home. The collection will be released in North America on Saturday, November 19th. It will be sold in about 300 stores worldwide as well as online. In addition, Donatella Versace has also designed a pre-spring collection for H&M which will be exclusively available in countries with H&M online sales from January 19th, 2012.

Milan Fashion Week Spring 2010

milan

It’s raining Fashion Weeks everywhere and I love it! Today I give you my faves from Milan’s Spring 2010 shows. My personal favorite so far is D&G! I think it’s all the camel-colored leather and denim shirts. The denim shirt tucked into the jeans look sort of reminds me of the JLo look from 2001. Remember the denim jumpsuits? I had one…looked so hot if I may so myself! Well, the Western look and Mickey Mouse tees are nothing new, but it works and I love it!

Overall, was not very impressed with Prada this time around, not coveting anything at all. The mod legginess of Versace, on the other hand…yes, please! Love the colorful raggedy dress from Moschino and shredded sweaters from Just Cavalli (much more appropriate for fall than spring, no?). Speaking of Cavalli, even “Bobby” had plenty of nude colors on the runway this time around. Time to invest in a light beige dress perhaps?
