If there's one thing you should know about me, it's that whenever I'm anywhere near a Zara location, I'm going to walk in and try on at least a dozen items. I've been this way since a Zara store opened in my local mall, and I'll probably always be this way. Call it a guilty pleasure. So, when I walked by the Bryant Park location last night after work, I naturally had to pop inside and see what was new. And it's a good thing I did because in all my years of shopping at Zara, there have only been a handful of occasions where my try-ons were this successful.
Within minutes of stepping inside the store's revolving doors, I had at least three items in my hand, all of which happened to be dresses. One loop around the main floor later, and I'd added four more to the pile. By the time I got downstairs to the dressing rooms, I'd accumulated more summer dresses than Zara allows you to take into the fitting room at once. Suddenly two hours had passed, and I'd tried on at least 15 dresses, six of which had rendered me speechless. Keep scrolling to see which Zara dresses received 5-star reviews during my last in-store visit.
I won't be able to sleep until I make it back to Zara to buy this dress. The draping is beyond gorgeous, and the fit felt like that of a designer gown.

I'm not usually a minidress person, but this one is cute enough to convince me otherwise. The bows on the side and the asymmetric neckline put it over the edge.

This dress deserves an award for its price-to-quality ratio. Yes, it's that good.
