There's lots of hype, as always, surrounding H&M's latest designer collection, which hits stores this Thursday. The line, by Matthew Williamson, includes a studded belt that is absolutely worth battling the crowds over. The black patent leather is covered in a variety of gold studs, and at almost four inches in thickness, is a major statement accessory. Waists were emphasized all over the runways for spring and next fall, proving that the new silhouette is cinched and feminine. We coveted Williamson's runway version of this rock-and-roll piece from his spring collection, but now it can be ours, and for a significantly lower price. Add this tough-chic piece to last summer's billowy dress for an instant outfit update.

$49.99 at H&M, 640 Fifth Ave., at 51st St.; 212-489-0390. Available this Thursday, April 23.
