I Compared 1200 H&M Items, and These Are the Best Bets
H&M currently has 6477 women's items for sale on its site. Since no one has time to scroll through that (even this committed editor), I decided to cherry-pick the best pieces from the shopping sections I knew would have the most stylish items. Don’t get me wrong—I still scrolled through a good 1200 items to arrive at today’s edit. My secret was to peruse the fall shop categories, which are organized by the season’s best trends, including corduroy and plaid; the premium-quality section (hello, cashmere!); the studio collection (the brand’s most forward offering); and the Conscious Collection (smart and chic). I arrived at the below curation. Scroll down to shop the cream of H&M’s bountiful crop.
Why It's Worth It: With the prairie trend going strong, there's no better time to add a vintage-inspired lace top to your cart.
Why It's Worth It: You know snakeskin print is a huge trend, but we bet you didn't know that this skirt, unlike other fast-fashion options, is 100% leather.
Bikini Bottoms High Waist ($15)Why It's Worth It: So we know swim season is but a distant memory, but is this suit reason enough to book a trip? The sporty cut on the top. The buckle belt on the high-waisted bottom. We rest our case.
Why It's Worth It: Because your work tops have been, well, working too hard, give them a break by introducing this tie-neck top to the rotation.Next up: the best pieces from H&M, according to Instagram.
