Thoughts from my first trip to New York: the bustling streets, the massive amounts of people, the bright lights, the tall buildings, and...the fashion. These are the things I remember. I visited the Big Apple for the first time at the age of 17 and I was certain all my dreams of being Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's (apart from the escort thing) would come true in that city.
I fell in love. What was the best gift NYC gave me? No, it wasn't a visit to Tiffany & Co. or the view at the top of the Empire State Building. It was one store- two sometimes three stories tall and on every street corner: H&M.
Now, just like most young women my age, I adore fashion. I love to shop, but I inherited the "thrift gene" from my mother. I love a good discount and will wait for an item to go on sale. My mom has had a few fashion lines in the past and what did she teach me? The value of fabric. If I'm going to purchase an expensive item, the quality of fabric better be above par.
I love H&M, because it's AFFORDABLE and the product is QUALITY. You definitely get enough bang for your buck (as the saying goes).
To my Oklahoma friends, H&M is coming...finally!!!! Opening in Quail Springs in Fall 2015 with 23,000 square feet of wonder and beauty... I can't wait and I know you can't either. Now we can all be rockin' H&M style just like our girl Miranda Kerr.
Happy shopping!
XOXO
