With summer just around the corner and temperatures set to hit the mid-20s this weekend, it means we only have one thing on our minds, and that is our outfits.
If you ask us there’s no better place to start than with H&M. They’re always bang on trend, affordable and have what can only be described as one of the best basics collections on the high street.

Here at Wear Next, H&M is a permanent fixture in our wardrobes, especially when it comes to expensive-looking staples.
The brand has led the way on the high street with their hugely successful designer collaborations, as well as a collaboration with style icon Iris Apfel, which launched earlier this year.
This month they also just dropped their latest Innovation Story; The Cherish Waste Collection, which flew off the shelves, and we’re currently awaiting the announcement of their next designer collection for 2022 with baited breath.
They’re new in section is full to the brim with summer dresses, skirts, jackets and trousers all in fun prints and must-have styles. Shopping their ‘new arrivals’ section is the easiest way to nail the latest trends.
