If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you'll know that me and Rob spent the weekend in Paris with TravelSupermarket completing six Parisian-themed challenges over the course of three days, with the idea being to inspire people to try something a little different next time they go on a citybreak! It was honestly one of the best experiences I've had; not least because of all the delicious French food we consumed. I'm currently putting together a video of our time there so that'll be live over on my channel on Sunday!

Anyway, just before I left, H&M invited me into their showroom to preview the new AlexanderWangxHM collection and pick out a few of my favourite pieces, which turned out to be a bit of a challenging task as the whole collection's pretttty incredible. It's all very sleek and sports luxe-inspired, as well as very, very black (can you tell why I like it so much?). One of the pieces I picked up was this amazing scuba top, which Rob likes to call my 'muscle-man top'. I couldn't think of a better place to wear it than in Gaye Paree, so I popped it on on the Saturday and snapped these photos outside The Louvre. We were incredibly lucky with the weather, I think it was actually 22 degrees this day (!), which made the whole place look even more beautiful - now if you'll excuse me I need to go and throw a tantrum over not being able to use Paris as my backdrop in every post. The Alexander Wang for H&M collection will launch both in stores and online this Thursday (6th), so make sure and pop it in your diaries... Maybe get polishing those elbows too if you're planning to battle the crowds.
