H&M Haul !

Bonjour tout le monde! 

Hope you're all well :)


Today I did a naughty little bit of shopping in H&M. I live in quite a small-ish town in France and there's not that many clothes shops here, so when H&M opened up here last weekend I couldn't help be over excited. So today I popped by to see what was in for this Spring, and everything was eye candy!



 I got this lovely little necklace that I had my eye on as soon as I stepped in the shop, it has a hammered effect which is lovely as it reflects the light. It's really beautiful with the blouse below too. I also got these stud earring because I always lose studs, or at least one of them and never have a matching pair, a bit like my socks really. So I'm surely going to have one pair matching out of this lot. I'm wearing the smallest pearl ones right now and they are so dainty and cute.


This blouse is such a pretty colour, I'd call it a mint green and it's a really flattering shape on the body. The material falls and drapes beautifully and is very feminine. I think I'm going to go a bit mint crazy now for this Spring because I've missed nice pastel colours over winter, wearing black has got a tad little boring by this stage. I love the detailing of the gold on the pockets too, and how the buttons down the middle are hidden with the overlay of material at the seam (a year of fashion design really makes me pay attention to detail these days!)


I'm a total sucker for cutesy socks with designs on them like these ones below. I'm not sure if i'll ever grow out of having bicycles, bumble bees or cute hearts on my socks. If everything about my outfit is quite plan I can just look down at my cute colourful socks and it makes me happy (I'm so sad haha!).

I love having little tennis shoes to knock around in over Spring and Summer, I didn't try these on until I got home and they are surprisingly comfy for a €10 pair of shoes! I have quite wide feet at the top so I find it hard sometimes to squeeze my toes into shoes with very narrow tops. So now you have the low-down on my enormous clown feet I think we can move on!


I wasn't sure about these chinos  at first when I tried them on, but after a little convincing from Clément I thought I'd chance them and so glad I did now! These are really lovely trousers for the Spring, and with a cute t-shirt or top tucked in with the pumps, it makes a really cute casual Spring outfit.



I really love this jumper on its own and over the mint green blouse above. It's a beautiful combination of lilac and mint green and I just love cable knit jumpers in general so this one was hard to resist. I'm really excited to wear this one over Spring with some jeans, a little bun in my hair and some sunnies! Bring on the sunshine is what I say!




I'm really sorry I couldn't link everything I bought here because I couldn't find it on the H&M website. And I also hope you don't take this as bragging, I really enjoy reading hauls personally whether they are make up or clothes so I really hope you enjoyed this one too.




Have you had a little splurge recently? Are you excited for all the Spring clothes coming in the shops?
I'd love to hear from you, please leave all your lovely blog linkies and comments below :)
