My New H&M Dress Earns Me So Many Compliments—No One Can Believe It's Only £28

Oh, H&M. A brand that we consistently turn to for trend-led styles and classic staples alike. The high street hero is a reliable favourite amongst editors and fashion people for the simple fact that there are plenty of standout pieces to find. The only thing is you have to hunt for them. With thousands of products available, searching for the really worthwhile buys is something that I happily while away the hours doing. And on a recent trip in-store, I found a dress that deserves all your attention. Meet the H&M Off-the-Shoulder Poplin Dress (£28), Wholesale Replica Bag addition to my minimalist wardrobe.

Whether high street or high-end, any new addition to my wardrobe faces intense scrutiny. How much will I wear it? Can I style the piece with the rest of my wardrobe? Will it still hold its appeal in a year? There's an array of questions I ask myself before checking out on any piece, but I have to say, this was one of the quickest purchases I've made this year.

H&M frequently impresses me with its timeless buys. I've raved about the beloved High Wide Jeans, tried and tested the linen trouser offerings, and I predict that this dress will join the ever-growing list of standout buys for the brand. I was first drawn to the dress for its timeless appeal. Even on the hanger, I could tell that the versatile black shade and easy silhouette ensure that it will stand the test of time and work hard within any classic wardrobe. When I tried it on, I was completely won over.

My personal dress collection is a modest one, but the finer details of this dress were enough for me to make space for one more. The ruched neckline fits neatly to the body, whilst the elasticated waist creates a sleek a-line silhouette. Whilst you can wear the dress off-the-shoulder as described, I wore it on the shoulder to embrace the sweet puff sleeves.

Personally, I avoid anything tight-fitting in the warmer months, and the ease of this dress means I've already worn it twice in just five days. The first outing was for a coffee date with a friend, and to match the casual affair, I paired it with minimalist sandals and a spacious tote bag. For dinner a few days later, I leant on black mules and a small shoulder bag to elevate the dress for the evening. I took my regular size small in this dress, which fitted perfectly, but the dress is also available in sizes 2XS to 4XL. With the 100% cotton composition, it's a dress that is already proving to be a key part of my summer capsule wardrobe.
