I recently wrote a story about my aunt and her impeccable style, and it got my wheels turning. Since I regularly turn to this woman for style advice, and to be honest, all of your responses to her most recent shopping wish list were overwhelmingly positive, I figured I should continue to inquire about what she has her eye on. While my aunt loves shopping at Shopbop and Net-a-Porter more than anyone I know, she also loves a great affordable find, particularly, a Zara one.
Since I know navigating the Zara website can be quite overwhelming, I had her comb through the site and select 29 of her favorite Zara products of the moment. My aunt was kind enough to also provide quotes to go along with each item so you can learn a little bit more about why she loves each piece so much. You'll find a plethora of stylish knitwear, loose dresses, and practical footwear. So if you've been in the mood for a good Zara haul, then I suggest you look no further because your carts are about to be very full. Keep scrolling to hear what she had to say about her recent Zara picks.
Zara
Metallic Thread Printed Dress
"I love the bow detail and the pop of metallic. It's just enough bling for a holiday party (if holiday parties were a thing this year). I would style these with ankle boots or low-heeled mule."
Zara
Patchwork Knit Sweater
"You can never go wrong with a cool chunky knit. I love the pastel color-block design. Plus, green is my favorite color."
Zara
Cowhide Leather Clogs
"Cowhide and a gold buckle? Yes!"
Zara
Pleated Skirt
"I love a simple pull-on pleated skirt. This rich brown color is gorgeous too."
Zara
Oversized Knit Sweatshirt
"At my age, I would personally not wear the matching leggings, but this oversize knit sweatshirt is a perfect cozy winter item to pair with jeans."
Zara
Faux Fur Coat
"Cozy, soft, and fun. What's not to like?"
Zara
Wide Leg Knit Pants
"This knit pant is perfect because it is not too form-fitting yet somehow still gives a bit of a tailored vibe. I love it paired with the vest shown for a more masculine feel."
Zara
Striped T-Shirt
"This shirt just has a cool vibe without being too youthful. It can be dressed up with a skirt and pumps or down with jeans and sneakers."
Zara
Premium Patch Pocket Marine Straight Leg Jeans
"The dark color is slimming, the raw hem is updated without being too youthful, and the wide legs are fun."
Zara
Oversized Knit Sweater
"I love this whole outfit. It is simple with clean lines yet still very stylish—perfect for pairing with a special pair of boots or long earrings."
Zara
Leather Loafers
"I'm all about a low heel these days. After being barefoot and at home for so many months, I don't think I will go back to heels anytime soon. This loafer in the patent leather burgundy with a square toe carries the perfect punch."
Zara
Oversized Striped Shirt
"This is such a fun oversize twist on a classic stripe shirt."
Zara
Coat With Faux Fur Collar
"This faux-fur collar looks so luxurious without breaking the bank. I think it's classic, pretty, and perfect."
Zara
Printed Pleated Skirt
"I love, love, love this print. I would wear the entire ensemble but if it's too much for some people, these pieces are great as separates as well."
Zara
Satin Effect Top
"This top has a playful pajama vibe and will prove to be very versatile over pants or a skirt. The metal buttons just add to the fun."
Zara
Wool Blend Oversized Sweater
"This has such a fun and interesting shoulder detail. I always look for pieces that bring attention to themselves rather than to me."
Zara
Limited Edition Printed Pants
"What a fun print! I would wear this with a long black sweater and black boots so that the print is the star. Again, I love green."
Zara
Wide Leg Jogging Pants
"Matching sets are the way to go and this color is so happy. It's perfect for lounging around at home or even running errands."
Zara
Z1975 High Rise Buttoned Straight Jeans
"You can never go wrong with neutral-colored jeans. The button detail allows you to show a little leg and a cute pair of strappy shoes."
Zara
Padded Vest
"This vest is a great spin on a classic puffer coat. It is stylish and warm without completely covering up the rest of a cute outfit."
Zara
Plaid Top
"The lumberjack plaid is a great contract to this feminine blouse. The pleated back and button placket add just the right touch."
Zara
Water Repellent 2-In-1 Oversized Parka
"At first I picked this because it is such a cute rain jacket, but when I realized it's actually two jackets in one (a puffer coat and a rain coat), I was sold!"
Zara
Jewel Button Long Blazer
"I love a long blazer over pants or a skirt. This double-breasted jacket with jewel buttons calls my name. I would likely wear it with jeans, a white blouse, and a strappy shoe."
Zara
Knit Sequin Vest
"I would layer this over a longer white blouse with jeans. It's makes for a cute and casual holiday ensemble."
Zara
Contrasting Dotted Mesh Skirt
"I'm not one for super-sweet styles, but this dotted tulle skirt is super cute. I would pair it with more tailored items to balance the frills."
Zara
Limited Edition Jacquard Dress TRF
"A touch of beading is always fun, and the bows on the are an unexpected detail. The drop short sleeve nicely covers the upper arm while allowing for a bracelet stack to be visible."
Zara
Wool Blend Sweater Limited Edition
"This color will brighten anyone's face. It would look great over a long printed skirt styled with boots."
Zara
Low Heeled Lug Sole Leather Ankle Boots
"Although the lug sole can seem youthful, this monochromatic version adds a bit of sophistication to the trend."
