Fitting Room: H & M new arrivals

Lace2.jpg

Lace shift dress- size XS $34.95
Pros: Sleeves were my favorite part. I know I have enough lace to last me a lifetime but I could see this dress being very versatile (worn as a top/dress). Fit of an XS wasn’t perfect but drapes nicely for a shift dress. I would probably belt it and add some pumps. Length is perfect for someone my height. 
Cons: Fit/sizing may be inconsistent but mine was okay.
Verdict: Bought!
Orange skirt – size 2 (sorry no tag- it was such a new item, they didn’t even put tags on yet)
Pros: Material is a cotton type with a slight A-line cut. Fits really nicely in the waist.
Cons: I didn’t see any! Super cute
Verdict: Passed only because I already have an orange skirt.
Long sleeve chiffon lace/pleated blouse- size 2 (item #045551) $29.95
Pros: I loved it when it was on the hanger! It’s so romantic and love the lace and pleated detail. And the sleeves are so adorable.
Cons: Fit was awkward un-tucked. It’s very wide and long (sorry I didn’t capture it un-tucked).
Verdict: Passed but could look super cute on someone taller and bigger.
Sweater dress with belt- size XS (item #062668) $49.95
Pros: Fits really nicely and material is very cuddly and soft. Length is great and even can be paired with tights for Fall/Winter.
Cons: Low cut, will have to wear a cami or top underneath. Price tag a bit hefty.
Verdict: Pass
Hope this helps! I walked out with just the lace dress! Woo hoo! 🙂

  1. I just bought the lace dress too yesterday too! Love it on you. I'd been waiting for Thursday for sooooo long.

  2. Love the lace dress on you and your ideas for an outfit working with it sounds perfect. I love the orange skirt and will be on the look out for that one next time I hit up H&M.

  3. Great review Annie, thanks for sharing! I tried to take pictures the last time I went to H&M but I couldn't manage to get any pics without the flash….it was so bad! Lol

  4. You passed on the orange skirt? The first time I saw it, I was reminded of how much it looked like the famous Ann Taylor orange skirt with the side zipper. Same color, same shape, but the difference is this one fits you so well.

    I think between you, me, and Elle, we should be banned from buying any more lace items, lol.

  5. The lace dress and sweater dress (super flattering!) are my faves on you. I really want to see how the lace dress will look with a belt!
