We Wear Zara to Create Chic Looks, and We Love These Luxe-Looking Items

Janet Gunn and Melissa Meyers live in Los Angeles and both work in fashion as influencers. While they each wear a variety of brands to create the inspiring looks they post on their blogs and feeds, there are a few specific labels that make the rounds the most. And yes, Zara is one of the said brands.
In reality, it probably doesn’t come as much of a surprise given that Zara is a go-to resource among the fashion crowd for on-trend items that don’t always cost a fortune. On that note, Gunn and Meyers shared the Zara items they recently added to their wardrobes to create some of their chicest and most-complimented looks. Keep scrolling to check out the pieces they’re all about that look particularly expensive and luxe-looking (despite the more affordable price tags). You’ll also find inspired shopping picks for each of the categories they like shopping for at Zara.
Denim
"Zara’s jeans are always hanging in my closet. They fit great and are always up on the trendy must-haves." — Gunn
Button-Down Shirts + Blouses
"I’m obsessed with jewel-toned silky satin tops this season and pair this green one with everything from jeans to trousers and skirts. Here, this button-up is worn tucked in on one side with my favorite Zara denim and a new hobo bag by Strathberry." — Meyers
"This silky satin shirt is soft and luxe in a deep purple that looks elegant. I paired it with Zara’s A-line skirt, which creates a flattering and stylish effect." — Gunn
"The gorgeous lace top is so modern and fresh—I’m wearing it here with a black cami underneath." — Meyers
Outerwear
"Trench coats this season have been on repeat here in Los Angeles, making it easy to elevate an everyday casual wardrobe. They’re simple, elegant, and practical." — Gunn
"A rain jacket is a necessity in almost every climate and why not add a cropped style to your rainy day wear? This one is not your standard color for rainwear, and the hood adds a little extra. Paired with Zara’s super comfortable white denim Paperbag Jeans with an elastic waist." — Gunn
Midi Skirts + Blazers
"I love a flowy midi skirt and this one in sherbet pink will be my go-to through the summer. I paired it here with a fitted tank top and an oversized cream blazer which are both staples in my closet. A classic pair of mules or slingbacks and a vintage designer handbag complete the look." — Meyers
Trousers
"I love the clean and sophisticated look of a cream trouser, especially when paired with black lace. This is the perfect outfit to wear to a luncheon or dinner out on the town." — Meyers
