Garden Collection

Man oh man, how pretty are these pieces from H&M's forthcoming Garden Collection? Even better, everything in the line is made from recycled, organic, and/or sustainable materials.

I wish more "high street" type brands would come out with pieces like these. If "disposable fashion" has to exist in the first place, companies oughta take it upon themselves to do what they can to reduce, reuse and recycle while they're at it. And besides all that, I just really, reeeaaallly wanna be wearing those shorts, on my body, in the sunshine, RIGHT NOW.

ok but let's get me into that blue jumper thing right this second. omg. omg. do we know what the price points for this collection are? however little that matters now that i've seen beloved bluejumperthing...

p.s. watched cleo from 5 to 7 this morning and felt wonderful for the rest of the day. though, i'm sorry, but when those kittens are in her apartment NOTHING ELSE IS HAPPENING. <3<3<3

Actually everything is pretty legitimately cheap, if you follow the link in the post there's a place where you can view all the price points. The blue jumper is $34.95 I do believe.

I actually am a horrible, horrible person and fell asleep a couple times during class when we watched "...5 to 7" (NOT because I was bored but just so so so sleepy you understand) so I don't actually remember the kittens but everything else I remember I LOVED.

i adore the red dress, so pretty, the shorts look like a great spring/summer staple too. i love h&m's organic stuff. they do such a great job with it. the only company that comes close is a canadian chain called aritzia, they have a earth friendly line called community that's awesome, albeit usually a bit more expensive.

oww I luve the pictures, they colors are so beautiful and I love the idea behind it. But let me guess: there won't be the possibility that they wll also release this as plus size...so, no chance for me.

Oh my, I love the vest and top/dress with all the fabric rose things on them, so pretty. Thanks for the glimpse of Spring now - this time of year gets so miserable knowing how many months I have until a little bit of sun pokes through the british sky.....

I've just looked up from my laptop aaand... Its snowing.

ooooooh love some of the stuff in this post! The first colorful dress is better than a watercolor painting... it reminds me of a dress I bought last spring. Only this one is better. Ha ha. I also love the red dress! I want to wear it for Valentine's Day. :D
