  4. I love H&M’s affordable prices and stylish clothing!

  5. Thanks for the chance to win! Your blog is AMAZING!

    I love H&M because it is unique, yet still right on target with the current trends. Sometimes they actually have items that become popular years later! They are ahead of the curve sometimes:)

    The clothing is such good quality, and it looks wonderful on. I have absolutely no complaints with H&M and I’ve been a loyal customer for YEARS! The prices are beyond amazing,customer service is always stellar, and the clothing is oh so wonderful. Hello unique textures and silhouettes! Not to mention they also have the best accessories! <3

    I don’t have Instagram, but I just commented on Twitter & Facebook 🙂

  6. the designer collaborations are amazing!

  7. My first time going to H&M was in Norway. I was amazing and overwhelmed by the amazing style, creativity and uniqueness of their clothes. They have everything from baby to dad and all stages of life in between but the clothes don’t look like they are pumped out of a cloning machine. Each piece of clothing is a statement piece. When you wear H&M clothes you become a statement, without looking like style vomit:) I love that they aways look to collaborate with other designers-it keeps H&M fresh and leaders in the industry. I rarely can go into H&M without falling in love and the great part is I leave with great pieces and still have some
    Money in ma bank! Since losing my H&M virginity in Norway I have stalked her every city I find her in!

  32. Graeme says:

    Great prices and cool clothes.

  33. Bebe Lee says:

    I love H&M for the variety of clothing, so I can find everything there. The styles vary from being dressy, to casual, to classy, to hipster, to whatever you want. I love the Divided line; their clothes are definitely my style. I love the shoes, and accessories from H&M too. The H&M’s close to where I live vary from a one story store, to two stories, to even three stories in downtown. I love how I can choose if I want to have a more personal experience, to a busier place. The prices are reasonable, considering the great styles that come with them. There are clothes that are classic and can be worn whenever, but there are also clothes that fit the seasonal trends. Overall, I like that the clothes are affordable and that there are so many styles to choose from.

  34. TW says:

    I love H & M for their designer collabs! A good way to get some designer clothing that you may never had a chance to before!

    I just tweeted you, but I will reiterate what I just said here 🙂 I love that H&M is so on trend with their fashion and accessories and their affordability is one of my favourite things about them!

  41. I love H&M because it’s one of those stores that I can waltz into when I drunk-shop and am completely oblivious to what I’m grabbing, and yet still wake up the next morning with a ton of fashionable finds. That says something.

  42. realy love the price, kids stuff and the brand: L.O.G.G

  57. marliee says:

    What do I love about H&M…hmm what do I NOT love!!!! Seriously though, they have unbeatable prices and good quality to go along with it! I feel that over the years H&M has done an incredible job brining in high fashion, off-the-runway pieces into the everyday wardrobe. Every time I go into the store, I take my time walking around and admiring the mannequins, they always have great merchandising which gives me a lot of styling ideas and inspiration. Also love their seasonal magazines (which I collect). Honestly, obsessed would be an understatement :$ haha its my favourite store by far, I can’t say enough good things <3

  58. Dan Ryan says:

    I like H&M’s wide selection of guy’s clothing which are all very trendy and affordable!

  59. Katie Chan says:

    I really like the cheap basics at H& M

  60. arudra17 says:

    Love the value proposition, what you get for your money. The styles for price.

  61. myra ◦° says:

    Honestly you have no clue how freaking excited I am about H&M opening in Victoria!! I frequent the ones in Toronto (where I’m from) but was so bummed that they didn’t have a store on the island when I moved here. I’d go to Vancouver all the time just to visit and see their new collections. I love H&M. I love when they have collaborations with big designers, I love their fair prices, I love their crazy huge selection!! It’s hard for me to go in the store and NOT find something that I love! Hurrah for a Victoria H&M!!

    Honestly, I’ve only been in H&M one time only and that was in Vancouver. After watching the TV show “Fashion Star” that was when I truly fell in love with what H&M stands for…so much that I had contacted the head office back east and suggested that they open a store here in Victoria!! True story!! And TADA! My suggestion worked! Can’t wait for it to open!

    My first H&M shopping experience was in Europe some 6 years ago. Not only are the clothes I bought then still stylish, they look brand new! And the fantastic prices make shopping that much more enjoyable. There’s no beating the confidence boost I get from wearing H&M’s fashions!

    What I really love about H & M is that they can dress the whole family through whatever season in life you are at! When I was pregnant they carried the ONLY affordable, trendy maternity line and I would make trips to Vancouver just to stock up on clothes. Now that I have a little girl I love to dress her up in the baby and kids lines. My husband finds clothes he likes there, work, dressy, casual.. they have it all. Now that we are planning for baby #2 I am excited to not have to hop on a ferry to stock up on maternity styles!!
    @hmcanada

  81. I love being able to find trendy, affordable clothing for myself and my two young boys! Makes shopping fun for the whole family 🙂

  86. I have actually never shopped at H&M so I am excited and curious to see what they offer!!! Always nice to have new shopping options, I look forward to shopping there soon.

  87. I love that I can pick up trendy items to keep my wardrobe up to date without spending 100s of $$$.

  88. I have loved H&M since my wife and I visited their Paris store 8 years ago. Their affordable, on-trend clothes have been a staple of my wardrobe ever since.

    Selection, variety, and atmosphere! @HMCanada 🙂 One more sleep!

  96. Kimchi says:

    I have only had the opportunity to visit H&M twice in my life, first time in Calgary at Ironmills and in Myeongdong, Seoul, South Korea. Both experiences were so amazing! I fall in love the moment I walk in and completely lose myself (literally lost my group in Korea; they went to the change rooms on each floor showing employees my picture). They’ve always got a trendy but diverse collection of items to meet anyones sense of style. I’m hoping to see the Conscious Collection at Uptown!

  97. llum says:

    I love their selection of clothing…a mix of trendy and higher quality items and their awesome collaborations!

  98. I love the huge selection and the versatile pieces they have. I always love everything in there and end up spending way too much. I also love that I can shop for my boyfriend at the same time. I love their jewellery and scarves. And I love their shoes and jackets!

    I love the trendy kids clothes!

  102. I love the attention to detail in their collections. The way that each piece of clothing, weather it be a staple piece or something on trend, has something special which makes it easy for each person to create his or her personal style. Being a parent on a tight budget and a love for fashion, it’s not often that one can go into a store, buy an entire outfit and come out looking like a million dollars and not actually have to spend a million dollars. I absolutely love the versatility of their piece, weather it be a blazer, or a necklace. It is the trendiest, cost effective one stop shop for clothing and accessories

    I have never been to an H&M before so you have no idea how excited I am. I have only seen @hmcanada online and I like how the guy’s clothes are simple and trendy at an affordable price! I hope they will have the Conscious Collection!

  106. 407jade says:

    Over the last 6 years, H&M has become my goto store for everything fashion. I work in a law firm so my day clothes consisted of suits, blazers and blouses all which I bought at H&M at unbeatable prices. I would dry clean all my work clothes and I’ve managed to keep these clothes in next to perfect condition for years.

    Moving along to evening wear, dinner parties and going out….again, no one does it better than H&M. I especially love their Trend line. It’s super affordable, on trend (no pun intended) and the quality is fantastic! Such a unique range of designs.

    As much as I would love to stock my closet with big designer fashions, I simply cant. My job doesn’t pay enough! But I always look put together and on trend wearing pieces from H&M . I also love their leather creations! One of my favourite 3-quarter leather bomber is from H&M 3 years ago and I still rock the s*^! out of it!

    Lastly, I’ve been to a few H&M parties and they are just awesome! I’m from Toronto so whoever does the PR in Toronto for is doing an amazing job. They are always fun, you don’t go hungry and the best part, you get to shop while sipping on refreshing cocktails. If memory serves me correctly, one party they threw in 2010 for the pre-launch of Fashion Against Aids collection, they managed to get Bedouin Soundclash! It was awesome!!!

    Oh and I love the H&M Magazine. Always inspiring and gets me excited. I always fold down the pages of the items I want to buy and take it to the store to buy! Great branding!

    Ok, I could go on and on. I LOVE @HMCanada!!!

  107. ” value of a city is soley measured on it’s ability to provide me with coveted shopping” – haha LOVE~

    It’s awesome that H&M carries clothes for everyone (men, women and kids!). The prices are affordable too.

  110. Mommybug says:

    Love that the clothes are modern and cover a large age range. I could wear their clothes in my 30’s and feel that i’m not dressing too young or old but individual style at it’s best at a great price!

      Andrew, the winners were contacted by e-mail or through the corresponding social media last week. We had a lucky guy and girl from Victoria and two ladies from the rest of the country who walked away with the prizes.
