American H&M


I wanted to see next if there would be a difference between the way the H&M was set out in New York compared to the way it was set out in England. I was surprised at just how many H&M's that we saw, there seemed to be one on every street. They weren't little shops either but all seemed to occupy a huge amount of space.
As soon as I entered the shop I realised that it was exactly the same as any other H&M that I had been in. It was slightly tidier, and the sheer size of the building meant that it was much more spacious. There was more room for the clothes to be spread out which meant that it had lost the jumble sale feel that it has in England.

Personally, I preferred the more organized and spacious feeling of the shop and found it much easier to find clothes that I actually liked without having to ferret around through racks of garments.
I couldn't be dragged away from the underwear department, and though I tried not to, I ended up buying a gorgeous nude set, a delicate bra and pantie set with a waspie that matched. I certainly don't need any more underwear but the H&M prices were very difficult to resist.

I also bought a black waistcoat embellished with gold sequins. It may look odd on it's own, but when styled with a plain black dress and opaque tights, I think it will make a dull outfit look much more appealing.
