I have a pretty good grasp on all of the major brands and retailers at any given time when it comes to their new arrivals, but without a doubt, I check Zara's most often. (Tip: Download the app if you haven't already—it makes staying up-to-date with fresh drops dangerously easy.) Naturally, not every single drop is a standout, but its latest delivery certainly is. Trust me. I've now studied it in its entirety twice and hand-selected my top 10 pieces.
You might think these 10 items were chosen because of my personal preferences and what my closet is lacking, but if you do, you're wrong. In actuality, I singled them out because of their overall likelihood of going completely viral and eventually selling out, with my official prediction being that they'll all be gone by September 1. Perhaps that's a touch ambitious even for Zara, but I'm sticking with it. Check back in a few days, and we'll decide how right or wrong I was.
If I were you, I wouldn't risk it. After all, I have a stellar track record with this kind of thing. If anything from the offering below calls out to you, snag your size or live to regret your hesitation.
10 best new arrivals from Zara:
This is an easy top pick in my eyes. Versatile, lightweight, and chic, a white midi skirt goes with everything and always looks great.
I'm a big fan of halter necklines right now, but this one is especially good because of the drapey fabric and gorgeous color.
These don't look like $50 shoes—period.
This billowy top caught my eye immediately. I want to pair it with capris, slouchy trousers, long skirts, and more.
Good jeans are hard to come by, especially good, affordable jeans. Zara has never let me down in that department, though, and I get the feeling that this specific pair won't either. The wash is perfectly faded yet classic, and the fit is comfortable but still refined.
Red jewelry is having a moment right now, and I can see why. A necklace like this will transform any all-white look or dress up a button-down and jeans within seconds.
A pretty, wear-with-anything blouse like this one shouldn't be passed up, not ever.
I pretty much live in white linen pants in the summertime, and I'm not the only one. Chic European women swear by them to stay cool in the heat and still look elegant.
A pop of red is always welcomed in this household.
I know everyone loves a white dress in the summer, but this embroidered black number is just as buy-worthy if not more.
