So my jackets are too small.
This one is cropped and I'm not a big fan of cropped jackets-it's going back!

This one I like, I'm confused because I'm between sizes and not sure if I should keep the L or size up to the XL. The L is a little tight in the arms *sigh*

Love that second jacket! I had a similar problem with a white blazer before. The S was a little tight in the arms area even though the rest fit well. I kept the jacket but haven't wore it out much because it just wasn't comfortable on. I would suggest sizing up to the XL (and it it's too big, get a tailor to take it in).

love the outfit sweety!!


Does anyone have this shirt? http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stor...012/189508/772502/BLOUSE+WITH+PLEATED+SLEEVES (its the blouse with the pleated sleeves) I just saw it online and fell inlove! Hows the quality and material!? TIA

I've seen it in store and the sleeves are super long and poofy at the ends. As for the quality and material, it's their thin polyester gauze. Personally, I not a huge fan of this material. Sometimes it's okay, sometimes it's not. I'll let you know more if I see it again.

Zara had lots of cute stuff again today. Tried on a cream jacket with metallic threads that was likely inspired by the IRO Uma jacket but it didn't look outstanding or anything. Ended up walking away with an asymmetrical silk blouse, very flattering. Will look for a pic online. I also really wanted this white knit cardigan but at $80, I couldn't justify it for something I would only wear a few times.

Here are pics of the jacket, sweater and blouse. The blouse I bought is white and looks much nicer IRL than it does in the pic. I noticed that the online shop has a nude/taupe version of the white cardigan but i searched the whole store and only saw white. Oh well, I was hoping for black!

Hi! Love your goodies (esp the blazer!!). I'm a fellow Aussie gal with a penchant for Zara too! You are a super shopper because i didn't realize zara was so much cheaper in the UK!! I would love to buy from the UK too but I have no clue where to find a good forwarding agent. Would you be able to recommend someone? Thanks so much!!

Hi! I know, unfortunately when I went over to Europe last year I fell in love with Zara! Seeing everything here is terribly overpriced (and seasons behind), even with the fees and shipping costs I have to pay for to get the items, it is worth it in my opinion! I would send you a PM, but thought this might be helpful to anyone else looking at the thread, sorry its a bit long everyone! Keep in mind the only way I've found that works (for me at least) is to have the same person custom purchase (so they place the order for you) and forward the parcel when they receive it, because my credit card won't let me enter another address for billing - and of course it has to be a UK address because Zara UK doesn't ship outside the UK. Briony from Briony Buys UK is brilliant: http://www.brionybuysuk.com/, who I found on the Australian Vogue Forums. So basically you contact her on her website, let her know the items you're hoping to order along with size and colour details. She will send you an invoice for the order (£10 (her fee) +pay pal fees (depend on how much you are ordering value-wise) + the order value + shipping fee that zara charges). Once you've paid, she will forward the confirmation email of the order to you, then when it has arrived will let you know the second amount you need to pay (shipping to Australia + her fee for repackaging & consolidating (zara posts in boxes) and sending off (£5 I believe) + pay pal fee). You can always ask her prior to ordering how much she estimates the items will cost to ship from her to you/the total cost. If you plan on doing a large order that is more than 2kg, it is more economical to use a courier like FedEx, though unfortunately still pricey! Briony probably won't reply if you contact her till after Sunday (our monday) because I know the last few weeks she's been very busy. Keep in mind that the extra fees (shipping etc) do add quite a bit onto the order, but isn't that just testament to how taken advantage of we are over here! Hope that helps a bit, feel free to PM me for anything else.
