H&M Spring 2012 Collection

We know it's practically torture to eye a fresh crop of Spring '12 offerings with Winter well on the way, but H&M's new goodies are too good not to share. We were treated to a peek of the full collection today, and we're already jonesing for the adorable neoprene brights and colorblocked wedges and heels. It's a perfect mix of modern cuts, soft draping, sharp color and understated neutrals, and, truthfully, there's hardly a piece we don't covet — but we'll try to pick favorites. Check out our breakdown, then click through for a glimpse of the freshly sophisticated collection.

• We love the thought of Spring leather, made brighter in a buttery (real) leather moto vest — perfect for toughening up the season's little floral dresses.
• Minimalist white suiting has that totally modern-woman effect that will look effortlessly elegant styled up with gold or tribal jewels.
• We're always on the hunt for the perfect little dress – this neon-injected mini is our answer to effortlessly chic statement dressing for Spring, with a little white jacket and a great neutral wedge.
