Today was the much anticipated release day for the COMME des GARCON collection at H&M. Only a very few selected (and lucky) cities in the U.S. will have it. The H&M on Michigan ave in Chicago is one of them. Unfortunately, I had to do my student teaching today and could not line up early. I did go straight after school though. Got there around 4:15 ish and nothing was left except a rack of a few items. The trench coat was left surprisingly. It costs $200, but I thought people would snatch that for sure. Also the pink and black button up shirts were left as well. $50 a piece. Expensive for H&M, but reasonable for COMME des GARCON. I snatched the pink button up shirt along with a hat from H&M's DIVIDED line. It was a steal at 70% off. :D
After going to H&M, I went to bloomingdale's for their Benefit Scavenger Hunt in celebration of the release of their new fragrance b-spot. It was a waste of time. I was looking through the hosiery section and could not find it, but I did find good deals. Got a few pair of UBER kawaii Betsey Johnson socks. Yay! After paying for my socks, I asked the cashier to give me hints but she gave me the magnify glass for the scavenger hunt! So I was all giddy and happy only to find out that I did not win anything except a "free" makeup lesson by the benefit saleswoman (like it's not free any other day....). I also go the sample of their new perfume (like I can't get that for free if I asked....). Anyway, determined to find a magnify glass with a star sticker to win the full size bottle of fragrance, I scowered a few levels only to find a bunch without the sticker. I was tired and hungry and disappointed, so I left and got Starbucks on the way home. What an overall disappointing day...
btw, b-spot did smell good, but very similar to something that is out already....can't put my finger on what it is....also their cheek stain is awesome...but at $28, I'd rather get NARS orgasm.
