BALMAINxH&M: MY BALMAIN GAME

It's been over a week ever since the Balmain chaos took over social media. Have you guys seen the items on ebay? 2000 dollars for the dresses and 3000 for the leather jackets - I guess we made a little fortune there. ;) This was officially the most anticipated and well sold collaboration in the history of the Swedish high street giant. Some are still hunting for dresses on Instagram while others resell the exquisite pieces in order to make some extra Christmas money. I'm so glad that I woke up at 4AM, it was definitely worth it! ;) After long consideration I decided to keep everything I got. The sunglasses are probably my favourite piece! I was lucky enough to get my hands on two pairs, just in case. ;) I'm so surprised by the quality, there is literally no flaw! Obviously I had to check out the breathtaking gatsbyish jewellery. How gorgeous are the earrings?! Unfortunately I can't keep them on for more than an hour. They are as heavy as they look which is why I'm thinking about changing the clip or removing some of the crystals. We'll see... Also the rings turned out to be amazing! I went for the emerald, white crystal and gold one.
What about the handbags? Not a fan of the big green shopper, I feel like it's more of a Kris Jenner piece. But the silver clutch... took my breath away! The sales associate told me that there were only 5 clutches available in Munich. I'm one of the five! It's so stunning and glamorous - Fitzgerald chic at its finest!;) All in all the accessories get 8 out of 10 point for their incredible beauty and (almost) flawless quality.

Let's move on to clothing: I got the green embellished dress which makes me think about a lavish yacht party with Snoop and Marty Scorsese. It's breathtaking! Girls, you'll probably need some kind of magical bra or a lot of tape to keep this thing from slipping. I figured that the best way to wear it is backwards. The chunky zipper will help you regulate the amount of boobs you want to show. ;) Originally I was interested in the velvet dresses, but when I saw this emerald 80s beauty with the killer shoulder pads I just couldn't resist. LOVE!

I guess the biggest commercial favourite was the logo t-shirt. It's a Balmain classic after all. H&M came up with an amazing idea, changing the signature Balmain Paris logo to Balmain Moscow or Balmain Berlin etc. depending on the location of your H&M store. I wish there were Balmain Munich t-shirts but I guess Berlin will do. ;)

So how did you guys like the collection? Was it extremely epic or just worth a little look? Stay tuned for more posts on upcoming collaborations and the most exciting fashion news.. ;)

Have a great weekend
