Video: Lanvin S/S 11

My Lanvin loves H&M shopping experience

I arrived at H&M (Königsallee 76, Düsseldorf, Germany) at 7.30 a.m. (it usually opens at 10 a.m. but today it was scheduled to open at 8.00). There already was a crowd waiting in front of the store.

I received a bracelet, that marked my shopping time for 9.20 - 9.35.

I intended to buy the black ruffled lace skirt and the fur coat but when I got in at 9.20 I had to learn that the fur coat wasn`t available :(

Everything in my size (36 / S) was sold out already and only one pair of shoes in my size was left.

The ruffled lace skirt was very unflattering on me (it made my hips look two sizes larger than they are), the shoes looked quite tacky (so did the bags...) and the sole was super slippery, so they were not an option.

So I chose the black ruffled dress for 149 Euro.

I`m content.
Even though the whole experience didn`t meet the expertations that were built up by all the hype during the last weeks.

How was your shopping experience? What did you buy?

The (re-worked) Lanvin for H&M Show in New York

Why did Alber Elbaz re-work the collection for the show?
Is what we`re getting in the stores next week "not good enough"???

Strong, cool, sophisticated: Lanvin F/W 10/11

Oh shoegasm! I LOVE the ankle boots with the cut-outs and the shoe that is half pump and half ankle boot! Stunning!
The leather gloves add an edge of coolness, strong sex-appeal and danger. Alber Elbaz empoweres women with strong, but feminine and round silhouettes, adding subtle glamour through layers, luxurious fabrics and attatched jewellery. Emphasized shoulders and sexy legs make this collection a celebration of contemporary, strong feminity.
