I'm a Picky Zara Shopper, and This Is What I'd Buy There for Spring
You’re probably wondering what being a picky Zara shopper even means, so I'll explain. While I love Zara as much as the next girl, when I shop there, I do my best to use as discerning an eye as I would have if everything there were super expensive. In other words, not just buying anything I see because it’s affordable or at the very least more affordable than a lot of other brands out there. Not a bad approach, right?
And since it’s recently dropped a ton of items for spring and the season is technically still in full swing despite current events, I figured I would share what I’d be buying from Zara were I in the market for a new seasonal wardrobe. Somehow, despite my pickiness, I still ended up with a whopping 40 picks, so to see everything that made the cut, just keep scrolling—and be sure not to quit before you get to the shoe section!

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
