H&M’s New Collection Masters Rich Italian Summer Vibes

Woman wearing a black tube top and a pair of sunglasses .

I might be stuck in New York all summer, but I have my sights set on the Italian lifestyle. More specifically, I envision sun-drenched summers, where I divide my time between lounging by the pool and the beach in the dreamiest vacation wardrobe. It seems the people over at H&M are reading my mind because the brand’s new summer drop appears to be designed with a luxe Italian summer in mind.

The pieces range from rich-looking basics like chic linen pants to the prettiest summer dresses I could wear on a warm-weather date night. Everything also comes in dreamy shades like butter yellow and olive green that make me want to ditch my all-neutral wardrobe. I’m essentially using the collection as my affordable hack to create the easiest summer outfits that would look better suited in my carry-on suitcase than hanging in my closet.

Maybe the best part, though? I don’t even need to book a flight to experience the la dolce vita lifestyle I’m craving. Keep scrolling to shop my favorite finds from H&M’s summery new collection.
