I went to H&M on Friday for an impromptu shopping trip and of course I had to buy things! I mainly went to buy some vests to wear as pyjama tops as I had to leave mine in Majorca last week due to an overweight suitcase… More on that in a future blog post. But me being me, I couldn’t just stick to my “I’ll only buy three vests” idea.

These were the three vests I bought intended for pyjama’s. Simple stretch jersey vests in pastel colours and at only £3.99 each you don’t have to be too precious about washing them, although in my experience with H&M vests, they’ve always washed really good and lasted years.

I saw this jersey dress on a mannequin in the window and really liked it. It’s clearly “influenced” by recent Givenchy collections with the panther visual, and it’s a simple item that can be worn both in the summer (in fact, I’m wearing it today paired with a cream lace tiered skirt) and the winter with a leather jacket, tights and biker boots. I really liked the red tee to wear with white jeans and biker boots or to pair with a pair of beaten up shorts for the summer. Both at extremely great prices being from H&M.

You can’t really see from this crappy iPhone shot, but the white vest is a loose fitting simple jersey tee with cut off sleeves and enlarged arm holes. I loooove these in the summer with coloured bras or bikini tops. The demin shirt on the right is a soft cotton denim, with the ability to be worn all seasons round, layered up in the winter or paired with skinny jeans or skirts in the summer.
