Living the Versace Dream



Well, who nabbed a piece? Who couldn't care less? Who likes, but a). Doesn't have a H&M store near you or b). Can't afford a piece of Versace for H&M (it is fairly pricey, don't you know)?
I think the Versace for H&M collection is very flashy, it is obviously very Versace. Lots of print, studs, bright colour & leather. Oh la la? More like, ooh VersaceforH&M-la-la-la!

I have read many an opinion about this collection and the majority is saying nay. However, this collection is my guilty pleasure. If I drank tea often, it would be my cup of tea. But tea and Versace don't really go hand in hand. So, that's out.
Did I get something? I hear you ask. No, I didn't. I fall in to the above categories A and B. More's the pity. However, I still have my imagination and my crappy drawing skills....




'Here I am strolling along in my Versace for H&M pink palm print jeans, with my Hermès bag and my cut little dog. Clearly, I am living the Versace for H&M dream. Hi there!'

Back to reality. If I did have the money and there was a H&M store near, I would go for either of these two dresses.




So, that's it. Thank God, says you? No more Versace for H&M. Apparently, there are rumours it's Tom Ford for H&M next. Just one thing: Why can't H&M just be H&M for a while. That's all.

never really a versace fan, but whenever I do try to get to an H&M they've all sold out, bar a pair of kids socks that I try to squeeze into (ha!)

Thanks for the comment on my blog!

Your drawing is cute, darling! I admire Versace for its' talented designs, though it seems like it will always be out of my reach, even if it's for the H&M because they're still little pricey. But very pretty!
Good luck!

Closet Fashionista said...

It is a bit too much for me, but I do like the simpler pieces. Sadly my H&Ms don't carry the designer stuffs

You know what? I'm apretty much on the borderline of the ney-yay divide for H&M. What I am adoring is that these pieces are TOTALLY stand-alone pieces. PERFECT if you're feeling a bit 'lazy' when you're dressing teehee

I tried on pieces on Saturday, but my hungover state & crazy prints weren't a good combo & I left empty handed...prob just aswell for the bank account ;) the black leather dress was what I was looking for but well sole out by the time I arrived
