ZARA & LIGHT IN THE BOX FASHION HAUL (LOUNGEWEAR & FALL FASHION FOR COLDER WEATHER)

 Hello lovelies!

Let me squeeze in another fashion post before I call it a day! I worked on creating some brand new content today for my blog, and youtube, so I guess I can say it was a productive day.

I haven't talked much here on my blog about the current situation in Italy, because it's such a difficult topic and it really upsets me, so I'm trying to avoid that by surrounding myself with creative tasks and positivity...the fact is that I'm suspended from work, starting from 15.th of October, and until 31.st of December, or longer, if this insane situation continues.

I've decided to be free and therefore the consequence is that I am not allowed to work anymore.

But, I have my creative outlet, and my creativity can't be stopped! So, something good may actually come out of this bad situation! I can talk more about the whole subject, if you wish, in another post (or I may do a video update), but I have to mentally prepare myself for it.

I'd also like to start blogging again in both languages, my mother tongue croatian, and english, as I used to do (it'll take me a bit more time, but I think it'll contribute to the whole blog's quality!) What do you think about that? Is it a good idea?

Anyway, back to the topic of this blog post!...I actually wanted to share a little fashion haul video and a couple of pics...This is probably my last Zara fashion haul, because I'm really turning more and more to second hand shopping, and my general conclusion is that Zara is overpriced (I only ever shop there on sales, but even then...)...I enjoy second hand shopping way more.

I also have a little fashion collab with Light in the Box that I included in this video, but I think I already blogged about that months ago, and shared the outfit photos here.

I got two loungewear sets, very cozy and comfy, I still wear them around the house.

As far as Zara bits, I got 3 things, very cute & warm for the colder weather, and I enjoy wearing them, but...as I've said, I really, truly want to be less consumist and make the most out of the things I already have, shop sustainably, (there are so many great second hand items, even brand new, at such affordable prices!). More second hand fashion hauls, and even possibly my own second hand online shop, is definitely in my goals for the rest of this year, and the New year! (and I don't think it's too early to talk about it, because it's literally only 2 months left before the end of this year).

NEW IN! (H&M Fall/Winter Fashion Haul)

Hello beauties!

I haven't done a fashion haul in a while (how strange for me...!)

Don't worry, I was still shopping like crazy, I just haven't had time to sit down & film my hauls...

But now...prepare yourself for some exciting haul videos/NEW IN blog posts!

In my today's post I'm going to share with you my recent H&M HAUL(well, not exactly that recent, but still...it can qualify as such, as these are all pretty much things I got for the Fall/Winter season...)

You can check out my haul video here:

I really ♥ all these things, some of them were discounted, on special promotions... so, you know me...always a true lover of a good bargains! haha

Here is what's new in my wardrobe...

I simply love plaid shirts! This season, they're definitely IN, and I think H&M has got awesome selection of plaid shirts!

As a matter of fact, I bought two!

This purple, more toned down shirt will go perfectly with my purple Dr.Martens boots!
This shirt is from L.O.G.G. section of H&M

I fell in love with the colours on this shirt!
It's nice & vibrant, and I really needed a piece like this in my autumn wardrobe!
This shirt again is from L.O.G.G. section of H&M

You know what they say...you can never go wrong with a denim shirt...
It's a must in your wardrobe for every season!
I'm loving my denim shirts and I wear them really often.
This season, I opted for this embellished denim shirt that actually isn't too fitted.
I got it in the smallest size available, but it's still pretty casual fit.

Details on the back of my denim shirt.
This denim shirt is also from L.O.G.G. section of H&M

So as you can tell, this time I picked up quite a few items from L.O.G.G. section of H&M.

I usually like Divided best, but L.O.G.G. is definitely high up on my list!

Another L.O.G.G. piece is this beautiful, floral print sweater that I like to wear on top of a denim shirt.

Another cool sweater; this one is from H&M everyday line.
I loved the fact that it's a simple, casual sweater, but embellished, which makes it a bit more dressy!

Beaded embellishments in a form of butterfly & flowers ♥

This knitted sweater was one of my amazing findings!
It was on sale for only 5€!
I grabbed it, without thinking twice about it! It's nice & warm and perfect for this season.
(also from H&M everyday line)

I got this cute, lace top on sale!
The price was awesome, so I decided to buy it, even though I'm not going to be able to wear it in this period of time (it's way too cold outside brrrr....) But I'm sure I'm going to have plenty use out of it in the next season!

I got this military style jacket for only 19.95€
It's the jacket that Gisele Bundchen was advertising in H&M's Fall fashion campaign!
I couldn't resist!
Plus, the price was really good :)

Gisele advertising my jacket!
I ♥ Gisele

Warm & cute beanies to cover up my head when it's cold!
The grey one is actually a snood and it's from the men's dept. (also available in black?, dark grey and military green).

Some inexpensive statement jewellery...
(as I write this post, I'm wearing the bold golden necklace)

I was very much surprised when I saw Aria (of PLL) wearing the same necklace as I have, in one of the episodes!
Do you guys like her styling?

That's all that I got recently from H&M!

I hope you enjoyed this haul/got inspired ;)

I guess most of these items you may still be able to find at your local H&M stores, but hurry up! You know how things rotate at H&M and get sold out pretty quaickly!

Thanks so much for stopping by ♥

Before I leave you, I'd like to ask you one question:

What is your favourite section/line of H&M?

(everyday, modern, L.O.G.G., divided, Ladies Trend, BIB, Mama...)

I personally love Ladies Trend (impossible to get where I live, sighhh...) :(

On my top list there is also divided, followed by L.O.G.G. and everyday.

Leave me your comments!

Kiss from Italy,

xoxo, S.

H&M FASHION HAUL: Fall Fashion & Some Summer Bits & Bobs ♥

Hello lovelies!

Today I have a new fashion haul for you :) I got these items some time ago, but I haven't had time to show them in a video/ post before, so you'll notice that they aren't super warm (some of these pieces I got on sales!).

However, most of them I can still wear now, with a bit of layering to make the outfit warmer and more appropriate for the chillier weather!

In this haul, I'm showing you all the things that I got at H&M.

You can check out my new fashion haul video here:

My haul in pics:

H&M top/dress

a simple, classic pair of heels.
these are so comfy! (I already have them in electric blue!)

This was my haul, lovelies, I hope you enjoyed it!

Let me know, which one is your favourite item from this haul?

More fashion hauls are coming up soon, so make sure to check back soon! ;)

Kiss from Italy,

Hi lovelies!
