Big & Bold Marni

After collaborations with powerhouses such as Versace, Karl Lagerfield, Stella McCartney and Lanvin, H&M have yet again announced an amazing collaboration with Italian Label Marni! On 8th March 2012 Marni will be launching a range of womenswear, menswear and accessories in over 260 H&M shops! Queue the hoards of bargain hunters! After queuing for hours last week to grab myself a piece of the Versace action, I will be braving the cold again for Marni’s colourful pattern clashing. Their trademark tribal prints and bright graphics remind me of my love of bold 1960’s prints and their oversized midi designs encapsulate all my favourite vintage styles with a sharp modern twist.  

Versace I own you

Well it turns out I’m a sucker for a bargain. My legs are aching and toes and fingers are frozen but I have successfully grabbed myself 3 pieces of Versace for a measly £160! After braving the cold to queue outside H&M for a glimpse of the much anticipated Versace collection I am now the proud owner of these beauties! What did I think of the collection? Well I wasn’t impressed by the collections lurid pinks, oranges and greens. I'm all for standing out from the crowd but resembling a full on flamingo is a step too far! But, I completely feel in love the with luxurious silky darks and industrial studded twists. All a perfect fit with my 80’s gold Moschino belt!
