I love to peruse Zara year-round, but something about their summer collections just speaks to me. I apologize for using this overused term, but the only word I can think of when going through the latest round of new arrivals is "chic." From delicate white tops to staple linen pieces, I couldn't help but share them immediately. I want it all. And while I love a good "out there" Zara find, most of the pieces I gravitated toward are pretty simple in nature. However, in this scenario, simple does not mean boring. Rather, it's the stylistic details that allow these pieces to stand out from the rest.
If you're looking for easy and luxe-looking pieces that won't cost you hundreds of dollars, look no further. Keep scrolling to satisfy all your summer sartorial needs.
Just wait till you see the back.
