The Best Zara Shoes You Can Buy, From Trend Experts
On Bella Hadid: Zara shoes
We've said it before, and we'll say it again: Zara is really overwhelming, even for the most experienced shopper. It's especially overwhelming if you're a fan of the store's shoes (raises hand). In our opinion, the best way to narrow down the offerings is to let the latest trends guide us. We've found that the most directional shoes are often the first to sell out, and it's always a good idea to stick to a low price point when shopping for very trend-driven footwear. Which is why we sought out the help of trend experts for this Zara shoe edit.
Fashion Snoops is a trend forecasting agency that's on the pulse of current and upcoming trends. You're in good hands with its team of experts, so who better to guide you toward your next Zara shoe purchase? Jess Tse and Hallie Spradlin from Fashion Snoops' accessories team shared with us the 12 shoes they recommend buying from Zara posthaste, based on (you guessed it) trends.
