She's hip. She's cool. She's who you strive you be. I'm talking, of course, about the nepo baby we're all secretly jealous of. 

Over the last year, our fascination with nepo babies has soared to new heights, thanks at least partly to the viral New York Magazine cover featuring our favorite little industry plants. While I'm a proud proponent of working, I sometimes dream of the quiet-luxury aesthetic of those born into hoards of questionably-acquired generational wealth. As a fashion editor, unlimited access to timeless designer pieces without worrying about over-drafting my bank account makes for a salivating thought. But until I can cosplay as a billionaire arrives, you'll find me combing through racks of affordable but elevated finds at Zara. 

While nepo babies come in all shapes and sizes on the style spectrum, their looks are often toned-down and subdued as they reach celebrity status. Just look at the closets of Lily-Rose Depp, Zoë Kravitz, Dakota Johnson, and Sofia Richie Grainge. The common thread? Linen pants, leather sandals, and a personal driver (or two). 

Below, shop the Zara pieces I suspect the quiet-luxury crowd isn't sleeping on, including summer staples and timeless classics the fashion set would add to their cart when their trust funds kick in.
