Only You and I Will Know These 29 Items Came From Zara
Though I find immense satisfaction in telling someone who thinks my top or skirt is designer that it's actually from Zara, I can understand that some people don't. They want impressed passersby to continue on in their beliefs that they spent thousands of dollars on a luxury piece, all the while keeping their budget intact. Who am I to say that's wrong? In fact, I'm here to help people continue that harmless deception by finding the most expensive-looking items at Zara to add to their shopping carts in spring 2025. Only you and I will know they came from Zara—I won't tell if you won't.
From all-white outfits that, at first glance, gave me Margiela-at-Hermès vibes to the perfect suede toppers for chilly spring nights spent eating dinner at an outdoor restaurant or sipping wine on a terrace, there's something for every chic dresser right now at Zara. Toe-loop sandals, braided tote bags, and pops of color ranging from turquoise to bright red are also on the cards. The best part of the curation below? Everyone's going to think you spent way too much on the pieces included in it, when in actuality, your bank account's far from unhappy.
