H&M layering basics

I sometimes suffer from “shopper paralysis” in stores like H&M. The over-stimulation renders me completely unable to make any decisions. I walk in the store, do three laps, and walk out empty-handed. But, with that said, I also love finding their basic pieces to wear a million ways. As I was pulling together today’s look, I realized (almost) all of the pieces come from H&M. So I have a strategy: stick to the neutrals. Instead of combing through racks of bold patterns and funky textures, I limit myself to ‘standard’ colors and styles. That way I find these hidden gems and keep from feeling defeated by the mass volume of clothes. What are your shopping tips or tricks?
