Whata-ya-got Zara?

IT'S SHOPPING SUNDAY!
And today I'm in every fashionista's staple high street store Zara checking out their new season collection.
Whata-they-got?
How-dusit-fit?
Is-da-qualityshit?
Take a look as I road test (read: changing room test) the hell-outa it.

From top left, Crop top, Sandals, Trousers, Shirt, Jeans, Cargo pants, Skirt, Tshirt, Jacket, Sweater,  Top and Sandal, all Zara.

ZARA. 

Bring. 

It. 

On.

So, first up, the midi pleated skirt (£39.99, small). Friend or foe? This ladylike terror would normally make me run a mile, so I've paired it with a bright yellow sweatshirt (£12.99, medium) and my trusty silver Superga's to make it feel a bit more sunday brunch than sunday school. 

Plus any skirt that moves like an accordion bodes well with me.

Next up, the suck-your-tummy-in-top (£29.99, medium) which has a wonderful cut out bit juuuuust where your overhang sits. ( Note to self: not one to wear on McDonalds Friday). 

Paired with slim fitting white cargo pants (£39.99, small) - a slim, tailored cargo, a far cry from the cargo of my Spice-Girls-card-collecting days. 

Obviously down South upon the feet you will notice the Zara version of the Givenchy Birkenstocks. That's three brands for the price of one kids - go gettem....

The cargos were too good to let go of just yet, so I threw them on with this simple white blouse (£39.99, medium) complete with knotted sleeves, reminiscent of the beautiful knotted sleeves in the Chloe SS14 show I loved so much. Head to toe white makes me feel chic without even brushing my hair.

My penultimate picture in the big Zee brings you the perfect (and I mean PERFECT) ripped jeans  you've been searching for your whole life, but never quite found. Ripped jeans that for less than the price of a Pizza Express meal for two - without a voucher - (£39.99 size 10), will keep your bottom-half clothed all year long because you'll never take them off. 

Tshirt (£9.99, large) was pretty good too - worn in a large for that boxy effect and the printed jacket (£59.99, small) was my favourite kind of floral print - abstract enough that it's not too girly.

Final outfit - the awkward crop top and high waisted pant combo. I think we've established this trend just ain't for me, but I feel the need to show you a cute crop top every once in a while and therefore you're just gonna have to get used to my fupa. 

This embroidered crop top (£59.99, medium) would look amazing with a high waisted black voluminous skirt for a summer party. I've dressed it down with silky, sporty, high-waist trousers (£39.99, medium) for more of a casual summer kinda look.  Plus, these trousers, with any short of silk tank or shell top over them = pure minimalist perfection. 

Happy shopping...
