Can we talk about Zara for a moment? It was my favorite store in NYC. I was in three story heaven while there and am now seriously mourning that I don’t have one here in Tulsa. I’ve always been a bit afraid to order online because the times I have, I haven’t had great luck with sizing. While there I bought several things and could have bought so much more. They just have so many good things! I digress…
Here is what I did buy – this amazing gingham halter peplum top and these black cropped pants. When I bought them I jokingly told Russ he was going to have to take me on a date, so I would have an occasion to wear them together. Little did I know that shortly after we got back he would get a promotion at work, giving us a great reason to plan a date night and celebrate. I shared a picture on Instagram and mentioned how proud I was of Russ. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you all. It was so fun to have such a neat response, not only from our friends and family here locally, but also from all my blogging friends. When I started this blogging journey, I never imagined having a community of women who would cheer me on through infertility treatment, work promotions, become travel buddies and resources, and more. So thank you. Thank you for becoming my friends.

I have never been in Zara’s before so I can’t say much about their clothes. I do know that it is a very popular choice for many people! I would love to check it out. Anyway, I am in love with this mini peplum shirt so much. It is adorable!

Ugh I love Zara! It’s driving me insane that I am currently based in NZ where there’s no Zara. It’s crazy I was living in Phuket and even a tropical island has Zara why not NZ? That aside, I love those pink lace-up heels! Xx

Well thank you! You are such a lovely person. Down to earth and humble. I’ve had mostly good experiences with bloggers, but I find that some toot their own horn too often. You are not one of them! And I love zara! I was just telling my friend zeba that I haven’t set foot in one since last fall! The closest one is an hour away 🙁 I need a trip!
Great pieces! I like Zara but unfortunately they made changes to my local one and it’s a nightmare to shop at unless you’re there right when they open. It’s sometimes worth the battle though. 🙂
And you two are too cute!

Zara is definitely a right of passage here in the city :). And I’m so happy to hear you got some pieces you love online. I’ve never ordered anything from them online, but I have thought about it. Beautiful look girl.

Really cute outfit! This ensemble looks stunning on you 🙂 Maybe now that you’ve found some stuff from Zara that fits online shopping on their site will be a touch easier? Congrats on your husband’s promotion! XO
