Remember Remember the 5th of November..

Hello lovely Readers!

It is widely known that yesterday would be an exciting day waiting for the night sky to be lit up for Bonfire Night/ Guy Fawkes night but for the world of fashion, the 5th of November has been much anticipated.

Billboards May 2015

The one and only Balmain x HM Release.

Boy, have I been waiting! From the moment Olivier Rousteing, Kendall Jenner and Jourdan Dunn walked onto that red carpet back in May I knew I had to have something from that collection.

Once it got closer and the prices were released (That beaded blazer, my fave from the collection, was £300!!) I became a little reluctant, but when you think about it, thats actually a fraction of the price of what it would be retailing for if it was normal Balmain.

Top 3 (in my price range)! 

With much perseverance and determination I got my mom on board and we both worked out a plan to get a piece.With a budget in mind I targeted my top 3 choices and brought it down to these (see left).

I can't tell you the stress I felt yesterday morning, with uni I couldn't leave to try get it in stores. From what I hear it was complete mayhem so its just as well! I phoned H&M about 108 times, refreshed over possibly 200 times AND even had my team of specialist volunteers helping me out, which I am forever thankful for! 

Finally we got through, ordered the velvet green dress but with my luck there were some problems and turns out I didn't get it. The lady over the phone was so kind after I showed my disappointment and she was able to process an order for the fur coat! I AM SOOOOOO HAPPPYYY AND SO EXCITED!!
Hopefully Santa will let me have it before Christmas, but I really won't push it! Just knowing I securely have it is all I need for the time being!

Many people don't understand my obsession or why this collaboration is such a big deal but all I can say to that is : If you know, you know!

Can't wait to be twinning with Kendall!
