I'm Over Everything in My Closet RN, so I'm Investing In These 30 Zara Finds
Currently, I hate everything in my closet. Well, maybe that's a touch hyperbolic, but it does perfectly encapsulate the feeling I get whenever it's time to get dressed. I'm a person who loves clothes (hence why my career is in the fashion industry), so when I start to despise getting ready, I know it's time to do something about it. And that "something" usually means heading to Zara.
Although it feels like I have nothing to wear, I'll admit that my wardrobe consists of the classic foundation—e.g., good denim, basic tees, etc. All that's missing is some added spice, aka trend-forward pieces that can elevate my staples so that they feel special. Below, I present my current shopping list of cool and fun pieces that I'm eyeing. They haven't reached my doorstep yet, but I can already feel the excitement from my computer screen. Keep scrolling to see the buys that are adding some much-needed flavor to my spring wardrobe.
This feels like Zara's answer to Jacquemus's F/W 21 pink midi skirt. I plan on wearing this with an abundance of crop tops.
Mugler's paneled jeans are a viral hit. They're also almost impossible to find, so until I do, these will suffice.
Oversize shirts are already part of my spring wardrobe, but this shade of orange really steps it up a notch.
I know pool parties are at least a few months away, but when they arrive, I'll be ready.
This top is relatively simple, but the sweetheart neckline really sets it apart.
This could function as a swimsuit cover-up, but if you're not afraid of risks, it could also function as a cool top.
My basic jeans aren't cutting it for me, so I'm opting for denim with noticeable details.
I'm so into the elegant round neckline of this blazer—it feels like I should be drinking espresso at a Parisian café.
These would look amazing with a cropped white tank and sneakers.
