Isabel Marant Pour H&M

FINALEMENT! It's here, well nearly, approximately 9 hours to go until the most coveted H&M collection hit's the web and London stores. I was super lucky enough to be invited to the Vogue and GQ event tonight where we were able to shop the collection a little earlier. Having said that, within 30 minutes everything flew off the shelves as anticipated so if you're heading there tomorrow be prepared! 

Vogue and GQ treated us to champagne, cocktails and canapés whilst we (politely) fought with one another to get our hands on those sought after pieces from the lookbook.

I was pretty darn happy with what I managed to find amongst the crowds, including the grey sweater, printed blouse and jeans! The lucky few who managed to score the coats and boots were truly lucky - I was so impressed with the materialss, they most certainly didn't cut corners where fabrics were concerned and, regardless of the 'H&M' tag they will definitely be wardrobe classics and investment pieces for seasons to come.

What have you got your eye on from the collection? Get on Vogue.com now to make your final wish list before tomorrow! See more pics from the event itself after the jump...

FROM THE RESORT

An extremely belated post but it had to be done; Claire Waight-Keller does it again and now all I keep thinking about is how can I look like this every day of my life? Please? Beautiful, minimalist, feminine meets masculine, tailored-perfection, I can't cope. And whilst the Birkenstocks shown last season confused/baffled/excited us all, it looks like they are back again from crystallised and furry to gold-plated colour-popped soles. I am now off to search for an oversized drapey trench coat and a mosaic filled room.

GILES X MATCHES

My Hallowe'en at No. 23

Last Thursday I had the wonderful opportunity to visit Matches' beautiful home at No. 23 Welbeck Street, for the preview of their collaboration with Giles Deacon, (on Hallowe'en no less!). The rooms within No. 23 were transformed to create the perfect Hallowe'en scene, from the decorations to the food to the waiters it was a setting so appropriate for the Giles x Matches collection (check out the dolls in the bird cage for one).

Giles has designed a capsule collection of dresses, accessories and homeware; including linear T-shirt dresses, sundresses, chinaware and notebooks, all of which are hand-drawn illustrations based on a series of dolls created by the designer. 

My favourite pieces had to be the iPad case and the dresses; love the digital print and the colours!

The Giles x Matches collection is available from the 13th November at Matches Online. Until then, keep checking out the amazing designer pieces dropping online each day! (Warning, add to basket syndrome may occur.)
