Balmain x H&M

stellaasteria balmain hm green pants

So I wake up this morning and it’s December already and also 24 days to Christmas! Happy new month everyone! December is the month to spend time with family and friends, to decorate, bake cookies,  send cards, wear red and green (like my Balmain x H&M wide leg pants), feel grateful and get cozy and watch classic holiday movies πŸ™‚

But now let’s talk fashion. The much anticipated and exciting collaboration of H&M with Balmain had it all; velvet textures,  metallic prints, beaded dresses, military jackets and loads of Balmain’s trademark embellishment. What else? The accessories are HUGE! Chunky necklaces and cuffs, massive earrings, and oversized earrings, you name it!

For me this has been the best collaboration by H&M so far. Although it’s not the most low-priced one, it still gives you the opportunity to get a Balmain taste on an H&M budget.

In addition to the collection, the Balmain x H&M fragrance is also coming, and will launch this week! I got some 2 ml samples with my Balmain x H&M purchase, and I have already loved its warm, woody and cozy tones. Here’s to smelling like the Olivier Rousteing’s Balmain army.

All pieces are amazing and that’s why the launch of the collection was so successful. I loved my velvet & silk trousers! Which was your favourite piece?

I was wearing:

BALMAIN x H&M velvet/silk trousers (no longer available, similar here)

ZARA top

vintage long blazer (similar here)

ZARA lace-up pumps (similar, here)

MULBERRY bag

DOLCE & GABBANA vintage sunnies (similar here)

MINAS heart pendant

VERY GAVELLO “Stella” necklace

    Love how you styled the loose pants with other loose pieces, especially that long flowing jacket! And you have gorgeous hair by the way!

    Those pants are everything! They looks fabulous on you and I love the way you’ve styled them. Over here in Canada only a few stores got the collection and unfortunately my city wasn’t one of them πŸ™ And it of course it sold out online so quickly….so I will live vicariously thru you!lol Did you pick up any other pieces?

      Thank you Jackie, I am glad you like the pants and style πŸ™‚ Unfortunately I didn’t get to pick up any other pieces as there was a line outside the store from 4 am and I went at 2 pm haha! There was only one store here that launched the collection with very limited pieces. But I was lucky enough to get my favourite piece without loosing my sleep and patience πŸ™‚

    You look gorgeous and effortlessly chic! Love the way you styled the pants! I wanted a green dress from the collaboration that was the same print as those pants, but it was gone by the time I got in the store!

    I was after these lace-print pants when the collection first came out, but I didn’t manage to get pair. You look absolutely incredible in them and you have styled them flawlessly πŸ™‚
