Balmain x HM Collection: Top Ten Picks

The Balmain x HM Collection comes out tomorrow and I can hardly wait! I’ve got my eye on a few pieces and I’m still contemplating whether it’s worth it to wake up at 5am PST to try and snag a couple of them. I think the most exciting thing about this collaboration is that the pieces actually look like pieces from Balmain’s usual line. Except for they chopped a zero off the $3,000 price tag.

If you’re excited about this collaboration, I thought I’d help you cut through the crap and sort through some of the pieces—because let’s be honest, it doesn’t sound like a great investment to shell out $200 for an HM bracelet (even a Balmain x H&M bracelet), and buying a plain pouch or Balmain t-shirt for $35 just to have a piece of the collection and never use it is just sad. So here are my top ten picks!

P.S. You can shop the collection online November 5th at 8am EST, here.

1. This crisp white blazer with gold button detailing.

2. This black blouse with amazing beaded detailing.

3. This gorgeous black coat, perfect for a chic winter.

4. This stunning, sparkly clutch.

5. If I were to splurge on one item from the Balmain x HM Collection, this dress would be it.

6. This perfect NYE/Holiday dress.

7. This dream of a black jacket.

8. This fun coin-inspired ring.

9. These rope stilettos!

10. This pencil skirt.

What’s on your Balmain x HM wishlist?

Hi Elise,

Thank you for this post! I am excited for this collection as well and cannot wait to put my hands on a few pieces. I love the white blazer! The black blouse with beaded elements is a dream and I am totally crazy for it. Oh, the leather jacket is eccentric and amazing at the same time! Great blog btw!
