It’s bitter cold outside today, but I’m starting to think of Spring. To help us shake off the drabness of Winter, H&M announced today its next fashion collaboration. The retailer will team up with the shoe label Swedish Hasbeens for a Spring collection of sandals and shoes. The exclusive line is inspired by the 1970′s, and will be available in mid-April at stores worldwide. The collection will include different styles of wooden-soled clogs, including gladiator wedges and peep-toe slip-on wedges, and are perfect to wear with jeans or dresses. Handcrafted for comfort and using sustainable materials, these shoes are fashionable and eco-friendly. Are you looking forward to the collection?

The big news in the world of collaborations is that Elin Kling will be creating a limited collection for Swedish retailer H&M. Kling is recognized as one of the top fashion bloggers in Sweden, which could explain why the line of chic apparel and accessories will only be available in Sweden. Why doesn’t the US get a chance to own these lovely pieces?

Also, I wonder if this means that H&M is starting a new trend of working with fashion bloggers to design beautiful clothes. If so, will they choose an American blogger for their next fashion project? Congratulations to Elin! See more photos of the fashionista modeling her collection after the break.

H&M likes to tease us. After posting several videos  alluding us as to who was the next designer collaboration, H&M finally gave their fans a confirmation to the guessing game in fashion designers. To maintain the air of mystery, H&M had disguised the voice and facial features of the artist. The predictions ranged from Caroline  Herrera to Vivienne Westwood. Then, H&M made their announcement! It’s official! Parisian fashion house Lanvin will create an exclusive collection for the Swedish retailer. The line of womenswear and menswear will be designed by Lanvin’s artistic director Alber Elbaz, and menswear designer Lucas Ossendrijver. The new collection will go on sale on November 23 in about 200 H&M stores worldwide.

Also, H&M will reveal the collection to the world through a special film which will be launched on November 2 . The film will be available for viewing at www.hm.com and will give everyone a chance to start planning for the shopping event! Are you excited about the news?
