As a shopping editor, I spend my days searching through retailers, looking for the hottest new releases [1]. H&M is currently one to watch — the site has been updated with new, on-trend pieces [2] regularly this month. Whether you need a glitzy New Year's Eve dress or a stocking stuffer [3] for your BFF, H&M is overflowing with covetable items. It can be overwhelming to look through them all, so I selected the best pieces that should be on your radar. Shop through them and get that online order going.
Jacquard-Weave Dress
It seems like every influencer is wearing plaid statement pieces right now; the only problem is they cost a fortune. This lovely Jacquard-Weave Dress [5] ($35) is well-made and flattering, so you'll wear it all Winter long.
Statement Earrings
H&M is brimming with jewellery right now, but I love these Statement Earrings [6] ($15) because they look like a million bucks. Plus, the neutral colourway allows you to wear this pair with just about anything.
Lyocell-Blend Blouse
Everyone will ask you where you got this Lyocell-Blend Blouse [7] ($55) from the moment you put it on. It's great for the office, but you can easily wear it with jeans too. Ruffles are having a moment right now, so make the most of it.
Makeup Tool Kit
Need a gift for your sister or BFF? This Makeup Tool Kit [8] ($20) looks professional, so nobody will ever know how affordable it actually is. The sleek pink chrome handles on the brushes are Instagram-worthy, so this set will be a hit.
Sequinned Bead-Fringed Jacket
Consider this Sequinned Bead-Fringed Jacket [9] ($99) an investment; it's the kind of piece you'll never get sick of throwing on for nights out. Whether you're wearing it over a gown or a t-shirt, it will look undeniably cool.
Ceramic Mug
Get in the holiday spirit with this Ceramic Mug [10] ($13) that comes as a fox or owl. I love the vintage look of it, plus it holds plenty of hot chocolate.
Glitter Block Heels
Everyone needs a playful pair of holiday shoes, and these Glitter Block Heels [11] ($30) fit the bill. The chunky heel and wide straps make them comfortable.
Holiday Lip Calendar
Count down the holidays with this playful Holiday Lip Calendar [12] ($18). The iridescent packageing is so fun, and what's inside is even better.
Faux Fur Jacket
While everyone else is wearing leopard print, you should be rocking this Faux Fur Jacket [13] ($60). It is insanely soft and will keep you cosy during the chilly months.
Sequinned Dress
The moment I saw this Sequinned Dress [14] ($129), I knew it would be a customer favourite. The sparkly fringe gives it movement, while the loose cut makes it comfortable. Wear the design on its own with statement heels, or layer it over a long-sleeved bodysuit for added texture.
Metal Jewellery Stand
Keeping my necklaces and bracelets organised is a never-ending battle. This Metal Jewellery Stand [15] ($18) allows you to put your pretty pieces on display while keeping everything in place. It could be a great gift as well.
Pajama Shirt and Pants
If you don't have a set of matching PJs, are you truly living? This Pajama Shirt and Pants [16] ($35) is an affordable option with a timeless design.
Cotton Cushion Cover
Updating your home for the holidays can be easy as swapping out some pillows. This Cotton Cushion Cover [17] ($6) will give your living room a chic update. Now all you need is a tree!
Lace Super Push-Up Bodysuit
There's no need to splurge on lingerie — H&M has some flattering pieces with beautiful details. This Lace Super Push-Up Bodysuit [18] ($35) will smooth you out under a dress, or wear it with high-waisted jeans and a blazer.
Patterned Cotton Scarf
Snakeskin is a huge trend this season, but it can be intimidating to commit to. Start off small with this Patterned Cotton Scarf [19] ($18). The fringe and patchwork print give it an effortless, boho look.
