H&M + COS Haul: Elevated Basics or Overpriced?

Hi everyone! In today's video, I'm trying on pieces from H&M and COS to see if they're actually worth adding to my wardrobe. We all love finding those elevated basics and timeless pieces (for me it's timeless pieces with an edge), but with prices creeping up, I couldn't help but ask: are they really worth it? I'll be sharing my honest first impressions, trying everything on, and styling each piece to see how I would realistically wear it in everyday life. Some items surprised me, some didn't quite live up to the hype, and not everything will be staying in my closet. If you're curious about what's worth buying from H&M and COS right now or just love a good try-on haul then this video is for you. I also quickly shared some fun ways I’m staying hydrated this summer! 💧Water 1 Cucumber 🥒 3 Mint sprigs 🍃 1 Orange sliced 🍊 ✨ Let me know in the comments which piece was your favorite and whether you think it was worth the price! 🩷 Thanks so much for watching and don't forget to subscribe for more fashion, styling, and honest reviews ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 1:55 HM Graphic T 4:40 HM Jeans 6:52 Cos Midi Skirt 10:29 Cos Powder Blue and Brown Dress 13:38 Outro 🛍️ Pieces Mentioned: Sharing the link so you can see the whole collection: ✨ Stella McCartney x H&M https://www2.hm.com/en_us/women/campa...
