H&M is doing something HUGE, you guys, and I'm so excited to be able to share this mind-blowing message! So here goes: ALL H&M stores now offer garment recycling collection services! Bring in any piece of clothing, from any brand, in any condition, and H&M will recycle it for you!

Garment recycling is just one crucial step that H&M is taking to be greener. I've told you about their Conscious Collection, and here are some fun facts:

• H&M is the #1 user of organic cotton worldwide

Print pants are everywhere for spring, as you've probably seen in stores like Target, H&M and Forever 21. Like I said, they're EVERYWHERE! I can't resist the bold patterns and playful colors but it can be challenging to figure out how to wear print pants without looking like a bad '80s flashback. Beginngers (like myself) would be wise to stick to small scale prints in fitted shapes. Here are five print pant looks I've rounded up for some outfit inspiration. Could you see yourself embracing any of these looks? Which is your favorite?

I've teamed up with the team behind Bravo's It’s a Brad, Brad World starring stylist Brad Goreski to give you guys a sneak peek at tonight's new episode, plus a giveaway for a chance to win a $200 AmEx gift card!

If you love fashion and reality TV, you're probably familiar with the show, and to recap, It’s a Brad, Brad World follows Brad and his team of assistants as he takes over the fashion world. This docu-series follows this fashion wunderkind's journey working with A-list clients new and old, while styling magazine features, fashion lines, product campaigns and New York Fashion Week. The pressure to get to the top and stay there is palpable, and he's taking it all by storm, one amazing look at a time.

So what's in store for the second episode of the season airing tonight Wednesday, March 13th at 10/9c on Bravo? Brad takes on a new client, supermodel Petra Nemcova, and must style her for two events last minute. Meanwhile, Brad's assistant, Thomas, sleeps through his alarm, forcing Brad to have a serious conversation with him about his future on the team.

Above, I've put together a "look for less" inspired by one of the fashion moments you'll see if you watch tonight's episode. Enter my giveaway below for a chance to win a $200 AmEx gift card - which you can use towards purchasing your own episode-inspired look!
