Lanvin for H&M

Posted on November 3, 2010 by allyson

It's almost here…

Lanvin for H&M won't hit the stores until November 23rd, but here is a sneak peak.

I MUST HAVE THE RED NECKLACE!!!

Prices range goes from $149 to $249 for dresses, $99 for heels, and $149 to $349 for outerwear.

Unfortunately, there currently are no H&M stores in the Oklahoma/Texas area. But don't fret, Southern Belles — good news is on the way! H&M will be opening their FIRST Texas store in Dallas next year! It will be located in my favorite shopping stop, Northpark Mall. See you fashionistas at the grand opening.

Didn't get enough Lanvin? Check out this video, Dolls.

all tuckered out

Alright, so I'm a little behind…

But that happens when you live in Wonderland.

Ladies, you MUST get thee to a Tar-jay! Tucker, one of my favorite brands, is their current GO International designer. And as I mentioned, I'm a tad behind and the collection has now been in Target stores for 2 weeks. So the selection might be a bit picked over, but it's worth the trip.

Here are some of my favorite looks.

I purchased this dress the second day the collection was out:

It's super comfy and very wearable. I can't believe how similar this line is to their original. This dress was only $39.99! The original Tucker dress will run you $250+ and has the EXACT same design. Of course, the fabric isn't as good nor is the stitching, but for $39, who cares!

“I will literally be the old woman who lived in her shoes”

I've spent $40,000 on shoes and I have no place to live? I will literally be the old woman who lived in her shoes!

- Carrie Bradshaw, Sex and the City

Soooo it would be safe to assume that Carrie and I share the same obsession. But I don't have $40K to blow on shoes like she did. How do I feed my need for fashion and not live in a shoe box?

Sales. Sales. And more sales.

Let's break this down…

Sadly for designers the economy has crushed the fashion industry. With poor sales looming, designers are forced to heavily discount their goods. And voila, sales of 50, 60 and 75 percent off can be found at your favorite stores. In addition, "invitation only" sales have started to crop up.

Here are a few of my favorite invitation-only sales – just click on the links for an invite.*

My personal favorite is Gilt.com, I get tons of great deals from them and they have everything: women's, men's, children's, accessories, shoes, makeup, home decor, wine, and even vacations!

I love to share good sales with my faithful friends, so check out my facebook page where I post a sale du jour.

*Time for the fine print… I receive credit for everyone that buys something from theses sales. After you sign up and you recommend a friend to join and they make a purchase you will receive credit too! Most of these "credit" will give you a one time only discount of $25. Basically it a win/win situation for everyone. As Martha Stewart would say, "it's a good thing."

Still need convincing it's not a scam (I was suspicious too) check out this Forbes article…
