Remember the Alexander Wang and H&M collection that sold out in days. Well, there is another collaboration going on, this time it is Balmain and H&M. The new collection is set to hit the stores on 5 November and it promises to be all ‘that’ and more. Kendall Jenner and Jourdan Dunn are pictured alongside the creative director – Olivier Rousteing, wearing pieces from the upcoming collection.

Here is what Olivier Rousteing had to say about the collection:

“I want to talk to my generation − this is my main aim as a designer,” said Rousteing. “H&M allows me the unique possibility of bringing everyone into the world of Balmain, getting a piece of the dream and creating a global #HMBalmaination: a movement of togetherness, fuelled on a hashtag. The collaboration felt extremely natural to me as H&M is a brand that everybody connects to. It calls for unity, and I am all for.”

I am so excited to see this new collection. Bring on  5 November 2015.

HEAD Sportbags

I had the privilege of receiving this beautiful HEAD Contemporary St Moritz Ladies White Faux Leather Holdall some weeks ago and I have fallen so in love with it. We have recently started taking our kids for swimming lessons, and this sportsbag has been our ‘family swimming bag’,  it is a very stylish swimming bag I must say.

This HEAD Sportsbag is a medium size, which is perfect for us. I love the fact that it stores all our wet swimsuits and towels neatly, it is waterproof so no messes. It has various pockets to store bits and bobs; it has one large main compartment, with a double zip access, a side wet pocket, and a front zip pocket for smaller items. The carry handles and removable shoulder strap means it can be carried in two ways, which is a great. This sportsbag is also quite affordable at £31.50. I love this bag. Can you tell?

HEAD Bags

I have even more exciting news for you; to celebrate the end of London Fashion Week, the first nationwide UK HEAD Sports Bags Design Competition Finale will be taking place. This competition has seen hundreds of fantastic entries and have now been narrowed down to the final top three. The finale will take place at trendy Be At One (Greek St) in Soho on September 22nd at 18:00.

The goal of this competition is to encourage creativity and originality amongst young British design talent who can show off their work to a wider audience with the potential to have their design go into production. The top three designs have been selected and the winner will be chosen by a judging panel that include former Big Brother winner, Josie Gibson and industry experts from HEAD UK. The overall winner will see their design go into production and on sale as a special Limited Edition item! Isn’t that exciting?

I am looking forward to attending this event. What do you think of this waterproof bag? Are you a fan of HEAD Sportbags? What do you think of this talent competition? Drop me a comment, let’s chat.

Thanks for reading and have a crazy Friday.
