I Asked a Chic French Woman What She's Buying From Zara This Month—She Sent Back These 19 Elegant Pieces
From white, puff-sleeve blouses to straight-leg jeans and leather ballet flats, shop a chic French woman's Zara wish list here.
There’s something about spring that makes me want to spend money. An iced matcha on the way to work, an Aperol spritz after work, an entirely new wardrobe from Zara—the moment the sun reappears, so does the urge to refresh everything. So when the first stretch of warm weather hit this week, prompting an immediate desire to re-haul my wardrobe, I turned to my chic French friend to see what she’s buying from Zara. Unsurprisingly, her edit didn’t disappoint.
What I’ve always loved about French style is its ease. There’s no sense of overthinking, just well-chosen pieces that work. A white blouse with a subtle puff sleeve or tie detail, straight-leg denim that looks perfectly worn-in, leather ballet flats that add just enough polish. When it comes to dresses, it’s all about simple, strappy silhouettes—often maxi, always chic.
