H&M announced its next designer collaboration last week, and guess what, it’s not a traditional designer at all, it’s a blogger! This marks the very first blogger as designer collaboration of this kind – big deal. H&M chose the (appropriately) Swedish Elin Kling, of Style by Kling. She has been blogging since 2007 and has become a fixture on the Swedish/ Euro fashion circuit. Unfortunately, the pieces are only available in Sweden, however I’m willing to bet it will be all over ebay.
For her collection Elin has chosen a sophistocated minimalist look, grounded in light neutrals. It reminds me of a mix between Chloé, Alexander Wang and Donna Karen. I think what she has created is pretty major – right on trend for Spring. I’d love to own that painterly print asymmetrical sleeve dress.

p.s. does anyone else think she looks exactly like Elin Nordegren? Do they all look like this in Sweden? not fair.
