These high-waisted shorts from Zara make me happy. The buttons and cuffed bottoms are such great little details and the fact that they are loose fitting and oh so forgiving makes them the perfect summer short.
I tried to stay away from the mall since I’m trying not to shop until I go to Orlando in May (does anyone know where the good shopping is, by the way?) but I couldn’t resist going into H&M to check out the Garden Collection!
The pieces just screamed feminine, pretty and dainty. I gave up on my shopping ban and tried to restrict myself to one piece.
Well, that restriction didn’t work out so well either. But the prices were so reasonable and I’m so excited about these dresses!
Here’s what I ended up with: the rosette dress (in black) and the blue cascading ruffle dress (can’t wait to wear it with camel coloured accessories!)
If you haven’t, you should definitely go check it out! What do you all think of this collection? Favourite pieces? Have you gotten anything?
Wearing: H&M top, Zara high waisted shorts, Talula Babaton coat, Forever 21 polka dot tights and zebra necklace, Nine West Mary Janes, MICHAEL Michael Kors handbag
The first photo of you is so sweet. I am digging the lace shouldered top!
I missed out on the garden collection and the small sizes are all gone! I really wanted one piece (the floral bustier) and called NINE stores today for an XS – no luck.
I love the lace top and the way you accessorized! Great picks from the garden collection. I’m loving the ruffled details for both pieces
I need to get me a high-waisted shorts soon… I love your outfit and the shorts is fabulous.
I haven’t checked out the Garden collection yet since we don’t have H&M here in Manila. I still have to wait until May when I go back to the US. I hope there are some stocks left still.
Have a great day! xoxo
I love the lace detail on your top.. and those shorts are fabulous!! Ahhh H&M’s Garden Collection is great. :).. I only wish I could see it in person. No H&M here in Hawaii. Boo. Hopefully my BFF in Vegas will check out the collection for me this weekend and send me some goodies! Yay!
xx Love & Aloha
i really love your coat (big collar, woohoo!) and your necklace
this outfit looks feminine but not too girly, which is just how i like it 
i love the garden collection as well, though I had to pass on the dresses because the material is too thin for my liking. BUT, I left the store happily with 4 items and I’m wearing one of the tops right now!:)

Beautiful look! I love the top and tights

hi dear! thanks for your comment. Cabo was wonderful, if you haven’t been before, I highly recommend it! Most of the food I ate was bought and cooked by my mom and since she’s been to Cabo a few times before, she knows what to eat and what not to eat, so the street fruit was okay. Luckily I didn’t get any food poisoning; however, I did get sick on my last day so I’m currently under the weather with a cold
Love the outfits you’ve posted recently while I was away, esp love your peacock printed dress, your marc by marc jacket and marc jacobs shoes, and great picks from the H&M garden collection!
Very pretty
I love your picks, personally…I tried on the collection but nothing quite fit me right and majority of the dresses were sold out
