Who doesn't love H&M? It's like the holy grail of high-street stores, and you can find one practically anywhere in the world.

H&M is experimenting with online returns. Right now, anything that you've purchased online can be returned to ten NYC H&M stores, including SoHo, Herald Square and Fifth Ave. Hopefully, this will become permanent and applicable at every H&M location, but they'd like to see how it goes first.

H&M is the biggest user of organic cotton in the world, so if you're all about going green, this is obviously the store for you. [Photo: Instagram]
H&M is the second largest retailer in the world, right behind Intidex, the parent company of Zara. [Photo: Instagram]
