Zara Fitting Room Reviews

I've recently becoming interested in Zara clothing, specifically their jackets. I think the main reason is because the brand caters to smaller people, it's stylish, and I've had luck finding outerwear in my size. I've only recently begun to explore their other clothing. 

 This dress is really pretty. It's a thin fabric, so it's probably meant to be worn in spring, although here in California it could definitely be worn year-round. The print is a funky navy and white. I'm not entirely certain how I'd describe the shape, maybe shift with a hint of flounce. I like that it's feminine and casual. I like the long sleeves and short hem, I think it's kind of refreshing. Unfortunately, at $79.90, I just couldn't justify the purchase. If this was at a lower price point, I definitely would have bought it. 

Get it here!

Who I am. Why I'm here.

I'm Elle. I like fashion. More than that, I love a good deal. Like any serious shopper, I enjoy putting in the legwork, scouring the racks for savings. I'm by no means an expert, nor do I claim to be overly fashionable (I'm the first to admit I sacrifice style for comfort on a regular basis). I'm just here to share what I've learned in the shopping trenches in hopes it might save my virtual friends a buck or two.

Here's my most recent score. This is admittedly a bigger discount than I'm used to snagging, but it's also why I'm obsessed with Nordstrom Rack and encourage going several times a month because their merchandise is updated so frequently.

The proportions were surprisingly good for me, and I'm on the small side, just under 5'4. I imagine this hi-lo style would work on someone much taller as well. 

Yes, that says $15.90! I purchased this dress at my local Nordstrom Rack last week. I'd seen it all season long discounted to $59.97 and thought it was a really pretty casual look for spring and summer but I couldn't justify spending the money on it because this isn't something I would wear to work (although totally appropriate for a casual office if paired with a blazer or sweater). I was pretty stoked to see this dress on the clearance rack with such a significant discount. I will probably end up taking in the straps as they are a little long, and at this price I can afford to spring for a tailor. I left a very happy shopper!
