These Zara and H&M Items Are "Fashion" With a Capital F
Everyone has different approaches to online shopping. Maybe you rely on fast-fashion retailers for your trusty basics and then splurge on special designer pieces, or perhaps it's the reverse. But no matter what you have in mind, there's no denying that massive retailers can be incredibly time-consuming to sift through because of the vast selection.
For this story, I decided to focus on the most fashiony pieces from two of our readers' favorite brands: Zara and H&M. I zeroed in on the items that have something unique about them, whether it's an asymmetric hemline or a bold color. Scroll down to shop my favorite Zara and H&M items that are "fashion" with a capital F.
Haven't you heard? Celebrities can't get enough of low-rise, baggy pants.
I'm obsessed with this '70s-tinged geometric print.
Hot pink is a major color trend for summer and these $14 sandals are the perfect way try out the look.
Puffy sandals are extremely popular right now, and H&M's $30 price tag can't be beaten.
Baggy jeans are unquestionably one of the biggest trends this year.
I love a good basic with a twist. This one mimics a bustier but is more comfortable.
This crocheted detail is so beautiful and makes this top worthy of a close-up look.
Try a striking asymmetrical top instead of a dress for your next night out.
Don't overlook the halter-top trend, folks.
In case you haven't noticed, platform sandals are all over IG right now.
This dress touches on the highly popular cutout trend of summer 2021.
You can style this as a bra top under a blazer for a fresh going-out look.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
