Isabel Marant Pour H & M! The Aftermath

Everyone in the fashion world anxiously awaited the launch of Isabel Marant Pour H & M Isabel Marant Pour H & M
When the collection debuted on November 14, all madness ensued.  Fashionistas from London waited in line overnight to get the first dibs on these exciting pieces.  I was not waiting in line! Taking a huge risk, I casually strolled into the H & M at the Fashion Valley Mall in San Diego at about 10:30am.  The Isabel Marant supply had dwindled to a small 400 sq. ft section of the store.  I looked around.  The women were focused, their shopping bags were full, and they were scanning each other for must-haves!! After I had picked up the signature paillette pants, a young woman came up to me: "Are those the size 4?? I really should have bought them while I had the chance...I really wanted those pants." I paused a moment and thought to myself: "She seems really into these...and when will I actually wear them?" Paillette pants don't exactly fit the Lady Lawyer's Lifestyle...not going to be wearing those to the office! So, I decided to give up this coveted item to the young fashionista.  She was super excited....I see it as earning fashion good karma.
Everybody there was really nice.  Women were trading clothes, the H & M employees were helping customers with the sizes...it was so fun! I am glad I got there just in time.  By noon, the inventory was almost gone.  Luckily, I could fit into some of the teen girls and boys clothes...so I got the Isabel Marant funky look without the higher prices.  This designer is amazing.
