Marni x H&M

Despite being as busy as ever, I still always manage to find time to go shopping. I think it's become an innate ability of sorts, a very dangerous one. Nothing new, but H&M's collaboration with Marni finally came out today, and I made the decision to head down after work to see if I could get my grubby hands on some pieces. I figured my chances would be higher as:

A) It's the middle of the week
B) People are working?

Unfortunately the only article of clothing I was looking for was already sold out when I made it in so I went straight for accessories as I was so not walking out empty handed, not after freezing my butt off. I quickly snatched up a pair of earrings, a belt and a scarf. Just as I was about to head out of Marni heaven, I noticed a SA carrying a box containing some sunglasses. I wasn't too sure if she was purchasing them for herself or if she was putting them back out (as at this point, everyone was now allowed in and so SA's were also trying to grab some things for themselves). Taking no chances, I asked her if I could have them and she kindly handed them over. I stumbled out of H&M 15 minutes later with a pair of earrings and sunglasses.

Although I did score some Marni, I was bummed out as the one pair of earrings that I had really wanted were snatched right out of my hands. Just as it sounds. I didn't realize people were so aggressive, all I wanted were those earrings pal. I will find you. Apology was so not accepted, it's a battle now.

At one point while I was inside, I said to myself: "If I can't find anything, I'll just ask for a stupid bag." Because quite honestly, I was not going to let all my effort go to waste.

I didn't realize that these earrings were clip-ons, and that the sunglasses were men's, but in the end I think I'm quite content with my purchases. I snapped some pictures with my iPhone to show how the earrings and sunglasses look, what do you think? I'm not 150% set on the sunglasses, they don't look awful though, and they're really sturdy.

I hope you all had lovely weather wherever you are, Vancouver had fantastic weather for this entire week (unfortunately it's about to end, but oh well). Here's to another weekend!
