I often peruse the new-arrivals section at H&M as I’m doing market research for various stories. I also like to hit up the retailer when my friends and family seek advice on fresh and affordable pieces to add to their wardrobes. Well, let me say, the new batch of trendy items recently caught my attention.
As I scrolled through the pages of new merch, I noted quite the assortment of items that I think could be worth it because of their chic and versatile nature. Some of the pieces could be worn now—such as the dress featured above. There are others that might be great options as you start prepping that fall wardrobe. I’m talking about items like transitional jackets, cute knits, and sleek shoe picks. Keep scrolling for top-notch shopping inspiration.
