Versace for H&M

Now I know that everyone and their mother's cat have talked about the upcoming Versace for H&M collection. However, I simply couldn't resist and had to write a blog post of my own about this very exciting collaboration. How could I not? It's Versace for fashion's sake!

I like that this collection seems to be much bigger than the Lanvin for H&M collection (correct me if I'm wrong) which means more selection. I'll admit there are some things that made me go, "What was Versace thinking?!", but equally, there were pieces that made me squeal in delight and I now covet. The bold prints and bright colours looked amazing on the runway, but I've a feeling if I walked down the high street here wearing some of those things, I'd invite stares and sniggers. Luckily, there are plenty of "wearable" pieces, too.

Anywayz, I did a bit of online window-shopping and these are the pieces I'm most interested in. Let's just imagine for a sec that my bank account is at an extremely healthy state, so much so that I could just splurge on frivolous things without a thought. I mean, let's face it, even though the Versace for H&M collabo is supposed to provide us peasants er, average consumers an opportunity to own a piece of luxury designer good at an affordable price, the prices for most of these pieces are still hardly affordable for most...or to me, at least. Still, one can dream, I suppose.

And on with the list.
