I did get a couple of things...

1) fantasy fabric blazer in turquoise. Runs large. I usually wear M in jackets, but got the S. The quality is much better than the white one (with silver buttons) and the structured fit looks better on me. I can't wait to wear this into the fall

2) sleeveless top in aqua. I haven't seen this online yet. It comes in this color and royal blue. Go down a size for a more fitted look. Also, the back is sheer. Here it is in a small. I'm a 34 C up top and found it a little difficult to get on due to the peplum, but it was worth it.

3) patent t sandal in black. Got these in a 6.5 (37) and they fit perfectly, which was odd, because when I got the buckle high heel sandal in 6.5, they were a half size too big. I'f I didn't see them in store, I would have ordered them online in a 6.

Thanks ipudgybear!

I have the red blazer. I'm thinking of getting more blazers. I love your haul!

Love the outfit!

The more I see the fantasy blazer, the more I feel I have to have it. I am thinking of getting the red one with the zebra stripes. How does the fantasy blazer fit?

I love the skirt! It looks great on you! I might have to purchase it. Zara is making me broke!

So I'm kind of obsessed with Zara right now.
There is so much cute stuff out now. I went to the Topanga store after work today and checked out a few items I was eyeing online:

1) blazer with zips in lime. It's definitely a chartreuse, but could pass for neon yellow in different lighting. I liked the structured approach, but all the zips started to bother me. Plus, I didn't really see myself rocking this color at work. Very pretty, fits true to size

2) asymmetric pleated skirt in coral. Very sheer. Runs big due to the wide elastic waist. Did not get it... I don't think I'm used to the hi-low hem

3) dress with frill in pink. Very fitted and too short for my taste. True to size. The zipper was kind of crappy too. I actually would have gotten it if I had somewhere to wear it to. Def not to work...

4) fantasy fabric blazer in mint green with silver buttons. No pics, but good news. It doesn't shed like the white one. Bad news, the fabric itself is thinner than the white one. Otherwise, they fit the same (true to size)

I love that dress on you!

the fantasy blazer i'm wearing fits TTS for me - i'm usually a S in their dresses and blazers. in tops, i'm sometimes an XS or S. i heard that the zebra striped one ran small though, so you may want to size up on that one. i think a few people have talked about sizing for it in this thread. HTH!!

I have a question about the fantasy blazers, i checked the care tag & it says DO NOT WASH. Does it mean ONLY DRY CLEAN? I got a big crush esp on the white one but i'm not a fan of dry clean only.

i wouldn't wash it in the machine because the lining is pretty delicate and there are all those tweed bits popping out. :p i bought it without reading the care tag, because i anticipated i'd have to dry clean it anyway.

I'm going out to dinner tonight, I guess you can call it a date, and I bought this top from Zara to wear for the occasion. Does the shirt work with dark denim/black skinnies and black leather flats? I'm 5'9" and he's probably 5'8", which is why I'm avoiding heels.

I just need to go purchase a strapless bra today. I'm pretty small chested, but the material is too thin to not have my girls covered up.

And just as a side note, I'm pretty sure Zara is now my favorite store. Recently, I've purchased the black jersey blazer, safari jacket with leather sleeves, a coral blouse, and now this top.

I LOVE the kids section too! I could seriously spend all day in there picking out outfits for my 3 year old niece. Too many times I've walked in to the store with the intention of buying something for myself, but only walk out with things for her.

Here's my Zara fantasy blazer again. I know some people have said the quality is poor, but mine is great. It feels expensive and I have had no shedding at all. I have worn it many, many times. Sorry for those of you who have had back luck.

It depends on what you wear most. I wear a lot of black, white and grey so I'd choose the black. But if you like earth tones and lighter colors like pastels then the other two would be great. I think the 1st one would be the easiest to wear with absolutely everything.

Honestly, I love the navy. :nuts:

I like navy as well! I was not able to find this bag on line. Do you know a name by any chance?

Mini shopper.

Here's the red but it's sold out.
http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stor...n/zara-us-S2012/209506/677570/PLAITED+SHOPPER

I think blue is the best neutral. Better than tan or brown. :yes:

Wow I didn't know they had red. How long has the red been sold out and are they're coming back out? I'm in love with the red.
