Hi friends! How was your weekend? Ours was good. Uneventful. We did go order new glasses and sunglasses and I’m hopeful they’ll be in before we leave for vacation in 3 weeks. (YIPPEE!!) Today I’ve got a short and sweet H&M dressing room try on to share with you. A few weeks ago, I ran over to the outlets where we have a nice new H&M and spent a little time in the dressing room. I’m amazed at some of the things I find in there and the quality. I used to think H&M was really cheap, but I think they’ve really upped their game and have some nice things now, for a good price. I must have been in a dress kind of mood, because that’s mostly what I tried on.
These wrap dresses are the same, just in different prints, and are available in even a few more options. If you look closely, you’ll see I had to tie the straps in a knot to keep it from gaping open in the front. These are the perfect little dress for hot summer days, and you could probably throw a blazer on over top to make it office appropriate, if you work in a more casual environment.
This dress is another option that would be work appropriate and I think it would also work with a blazer. I think the ruffled cap sleeves are just so sweet and it’s lined, which is great since it’s a pretty sheer outer layer.
I was completely in love with this dress and really wanted (and should have) brought it home with me. It is absolutely adorable. I couldn’t find the black version online (it’s probably sold out), but here’s a really sweet blue floral option.
I couldn’t resist trying on a jumpsuit. They didn’t have my size, so it was either go big or squeeze into a smaller size. Can you guess what I did? Let’s just say, I couldn’t exhale. Even with the lack of oxygen, I loved this jumpsuit. The material was really nice and thick, it had pockets, and the proportions were actually really good. Again, I sure wish I “needed” it. I’ve got to find more places to go. LOL
I’m going to be 100% honest with y’all. When I took all of these in the dressing room, I had no idea how it would go, but I was so pleasantly surprised with all of them. This is just a great little jersey/cotton dress with an elastic waist and pockets. You could also add a belt to it to dress it up a little more.
Y’all have probably figured out by now that I really had a fondness for eyelet. I didn’t when I was a little girl and my mom was making me wear it (sorry mom), but I grew into it and love it now. This is like a fancy t-shirt. The front and back have the cute v-neck and make it special. The striped wide leg pants are cute too.
My favorites from this H&M dressing room try on were a toss up between this super fun and pretty long satin maxi and the ruffled dress. I think this dress would be a great option for so many occasions including a cruise, class reunion, or rehearsal dinner. If I had someplace to wear it, you better believe it would have come home with me.
I threw in a cute smocked red blouse with the shoppable images below. It reminds me a little of the red top I shared last week here. It also came from H&M and I plan to wear it with these jeans I got from Loft.

The ruffle dress was my favorite too. I have not been in an H&M in forever. I forget what cute, affordable options they can have. You are soooooo good at Dressing room selfies! Happy Monday gorgeous!
Lisa Richardson says
I looked for that dress in my size today and it was sold out. I guess it’s a sign I didn’t need it. LOL Happy Saturday!! XOXO

Laura says
I actually went to H&M last Friday night, but I had my teenager in tow and so she got all the goods. I didn’t see any of the items you featured, but I did tell myself that I was going to go back because I saw some really cute blouses for work. I noticed, too, that it looks like their prices have increased, so I was surprised about that. Hope you’re off to a great week!
Lisa Richardson says
I agree, that their prices have increased, but I think the quality has too, so I guess it was bound to happen. Hope you go back and have some success!! XOXO

So many great items! I love that jumpsuit on you and that pink top is adorable especially with the wide leg pants!
Lisa Richardson says
Thanks Laura! That jumpsuit is really nice and I think it comes in navy. Now if I just had somewhere to wear it. HA! XOXO
NancysFashionStyle says
That jumpsuit might be a bit small, can t see it, but it looks so good on you! And that maxi dress is gorgeous! But what did you buy?
Lisa Richardson says
Thanks Nancy!!! If I’d shown you a pick straight on, you’d have died. LOL
Holly Breton says
I always forget about H&M! Thanks for the reminder- everything looks awesome on you!
Lisa Richardson says
You’re a sweetie Holly! Thanks! Happy weekend! XOXO
Gina Daily says
What a fun try on session! I agree H&M has cute stuff for reasonable prices. That striped jumpsuit you tried on looks amazing on you. I’m in the same boat -so many fab pieces I’d love to buy…not enough places to wear them!
Lisa Richardson says
Thanks Gina! I guess we just need to up our social calendars so we can buy all the things. HA! XOXO
Melissa says
H & M has definitely stepped up their game lately. I walked in a few weeks ago and was really impressed. I love the wrap dresses! Such fun print and will totally be a hit during the summer. But my favorite was the jumpsuit! Such a bummer they didn’t had your size, because its a must for sure!!
xo

Lisa Richardson says
Thanks Melissa!!! If I had any place to really wear it, I’d order it. It was nice and thick material and would be cute with a white blazer. Happy weekend!! XOXO
Leslie Clingan says
You look so smashing in everything, how did you not walk away with ten bags full!?? Love the maxi’s great print and colors. Love, love the sweet blush pink eyelet top, and those dresses are all fun for summer.
Lisa Richardson says
Thanks so much Leslie! I have no idea how I’m able to restrain myself. HAHAHA!
Happy weekend! XO

It’s been so long since I have shopped at H&M. Maybe it’s a good thing or I would spend too much money there! Great try on!

JL@ A Pocketful of Polka Dots says
Hmm, I have never been a fan of H&M, but it looks like maybe I need to give them another chance. These are some really cute items! You look adorable in that black and white striped jump suit and not like you are holding your breath. Lol. 🙂
Lisa Richardson says
I wasn’t for the longest time either, but I do think they’ve upped their game. Thanks Jennie!! XOXO
