ZARA

as you all know i'm a major ZARA fan so i couldn't wait to get my shopaholic self into a real european ZARA. A week into my Italian adventure I couldn't wait any longer. 

and it was even more amazing than I had imagined... 

the one on Via del Corso is so big it's practically a mall in itself but better obviously because it's all ZARA delishiousness.

four floors, two of which were entirely sale and enough fitting rooms that you barely had to wait. i mean, what else could you ask for?

here's a snapshot from the cab... 

the new collection was perfection: skulls, camo, black, white and pops of color.
this is probably my favorite of the two purchases... a sheer skull printed blouse. unfortunately, i couldn't find it for you online 

the accessories were especially amazing and the bags were the standouts. 
my other purchase was this bucket bag... its a beautiful sand color - not too brown but not too light. the zipper detailing make it look wayy more expensive than it is and if you aren't already sold, you can wear it as an oversized cross body because of the long strap.

the last find i have to share is officially at the top of my wish list. like i said, the bags were incredible. this bad boy caught my eye as soon as i stepped inside. entirely encrusted with grommets this isn't you're mama's tote. yes, it's practical (huge) but its badass.

okay so that's the major fashion update from Rome. more to come soon!
