My top 5 picks from H&M's Autumn/Winter catalogue

August 01, 2013


We may be experiencing yet another mini-heatwave (I'm not complaining, honestly), yet a few days ago H&M's Autumn/Winter catalogue plopped through the letterbox. Autumn/Winter are by far and away my favourite fashion seasons; so many beautiful, bold colours, textures and prints and I find that outfits are a lot easier to style at that time of year. Don't get me wrong, I like Spring/Summer but there's only so many strapless dresses and bikinis I can take... y'know? So, when I dug this catalogue out from under a pile of washing I was happy to find several items that caught my eye - all of which are very reasonably priced.

Patterned kimono, £19.99 I can't say that I've ever owned a kimono in my life, and truthfully it's only been in the last year or so that I've started branching out fashion-wise. I love the burgundy shades and subtle print on this, and on the model in the catalogue it looks amazing and much more expensive than it actually is. A perfect cover-up for those unpredictable days!

Embroidered dress, £24.99 I'm all about a little black dress, when I can find the right one and this is a twist on a classic. The pattern is subtle yet eye-catching, add to that the faux leather trim and waistband and you have a classy yet edgy piece. The bodycon style is flattering on pretty much everyone and could be dressed up or down.

Stretch trousers, £7.99 First off, can we look at the price... how cheap? I never used to be one for printed trousers until I bought some from Primark last year, and I've kept my eye out ever since. These are made out of twill and look very soft and comfortable to wear. Definitely a piece that could be thrown on with a simple top and jewellery and look like you made a lot of effort to style!

Biker jacket, £29.99 Every year, H&M bring out an imitation leather biker jacket and I've been waiting on tenterhooks for this years. It has everything I'm looking for - short length, off-centre zip, real pockets and shoulder detailing, love! I had a H&M jacket just like this not so long ago that I had to throw away; so hopefully this is its replacement.

Twill biker jacket, £29.99 This is on one of the first pages of the catalogue and I can see why; it's gorgeous! Simplicity at its best and of course, the rose gold accents are just perfect and make this piece a potential purchase for me. It's a toss-up between this and the previous jacket as to which one I'm going to buy and at the moment I honestly have no idea! Thoughts?
