From a lustrous satin bodysuit to a midriff-baring cropped shirt, Zara's new arrivals are more daring than ever. The fall releases teach us how to master the art of transitional dressing, and capture our excitement to spend more time outside with people. Aside from a few splurge-worthy pieces [1] (thinking of the statement long coat and sharp wool blazer), the bulk of the edit is affordable yet each piece looks a lot more expensive than it is.
The change to fall is a great time to experiment with new silhouettes or grab some contemporary staples [2] that will work year-round. Invest in these elevated layers [3], and you'll be ready for any occasion your friends, colleagues, or partner throw at you.
