The AW18 Zara buys you can 100% start wearing now

Nothing fills us with joy quite like a fresh drop of Zara new season clothing (except maybe Zara shopping hacks). But for anyone who has ever missed a must-have piece, you’ll know that when these beauties land online (or in store) it’s a case of fastest finger first.

There’s nothing like the pain of missing out on that one dreamy piece – I’m still lusting after that plaited shopper bag, and all those other popular Zara items I missed out on.

With the new season just around the corner, and despite the persistent heatwave, I’m getting really excited about planning my ‘back-to-school’ wardrobe. Next season’s steals are up for grabs and there are a few stand-out AW18 pieces that have been proving a hit with the stylet set.

What to buy in Zara

There’s literally never been a better time to shop for transitional updates

. If, like me, you don’t have time to trawl the rails in town or trawl through the online you’re in luck because I’ve done the leg work for you, rounding up all the best Aw18 buys hitting stores right now. And the beauty of it is that you can start wearing them now by mixing them in with your current wardrobe.

I’m seeing a lot of scarf blouses at the moment, and as per, Zara is quick to serve up its take on the trend, in the form of chain print pleated skirts and silky shirts. Print-wise, anything animal is a must for the new season, and Zara is doing snake print particularly well. For your more classic staples, I’ve found a super chic belted coat and a checked blazer which will cover any work-wear scenario.

The high-street store’s accessories offering has always been strong, and this season is no exception. I’m loving the baroque style statement jewellery (bejewelled earrings, come to mama), and cowboy boots, because there’s now avoiding that trend for AW.
