Rumor Has It HM(plus) in USA

In case you haven't heard....H&M has launched a new plus size line called H&M+, (sz14-24) is was renamed previously known BIB (big is beautiful). Sadly this line is only sold in Europe and on-line, which in not available to US customers.....why? Any who as my title suggest "rumor has it" some US stores will and do have the H&M+ line. This morning Marie Denee (The Curvy Fashionista) wrote on Facebook, she found 2 local So Cal stores which had the plus line. I obviously was excited...so I personally called one of the H&M locations in Ontario Mills and have confirmed they have H&M+, in fact girl said they had it for 2 weeks. Its not to clear from the website which stores in the US will carry H&M+, you can call your local surrounding stores and ask. I for one am excited and will be heading out this weekend to check out the new H&M+.

Here are some of the pieces from the website that I am hoping to find in store.

You can view the entire collection on-line here (link). Not sure what pieces will be available in stores. I am hoping they all will be and in all the size range (14-24). Wish me luck! If any one gets there hands on any of the H&M+ line please let me know. Would love to know what you think of the style and quality. Happy Shopping!

Jason Wu for Target Video

Yet another Target collab came and went...well guess its still going. Sunday February 5th, I set my alarm at 6am to make sure I got to my local Target by 8am to get my Wu on....Jason Wu that is. I wasn't able to go to the opening of the Missoni for Target since for some odd reason Target decided to launch it on a Tuesday. Well thank goodness Target came to their senses and went back to Sunday launches. Any who, my local Target did have a line but if you were there when store opened you most likely got what you wanted. I am take what you see kinda shopper then decide what you will actually keep and buy. Check out the video of my Jason Wu for Target shopping experience.

I ended up buying a couple of the tees, scarfs and bags, since that's all that fit me. But I do like the style and quality of the Jason Wu for Target collection. Quality and pricing does seem to be better than some previous collabs. Some people will argue that it feels cheap, but yeah its Target you pay cheaper prices so you will get cheaper fabric. Don't get it how some people will complain about the quality but would never pay the price for "real" quality designers. Oh well either way I am happy with this collection. Hope you enjoyed the video. Please subscribe to my YouTube (link) channel and comment and rate my video.

What did you get from Jason Wu for Target?

Heart Valentines

When it comes to Valentines Day I can be as romantic and cheesy as most woman, but when it comes to fashion don't give me any girly stuff. Even as a little girl, I didn't like wearing pink frilly clothes. So don't except my V Day outfit to be head to toe pink/red or too frilly. Some woman look totally adorable and hot in red dresses, its just not me. My style has always been more on the darker color palette side. Either way you can totally look cute and express your love with out fluff! Here are some of my picks for Valentines Day outfits.
