Somewhat abruptly, winter is here, bringing with it shorter days, crisp winds and a fresh batch of sartorial considerations. Nowadays, getting dressed every morning tends to be focused on practicalities — do we need to prep for rain, freezing temperatures, snow? But that doesn’t mean we want to sacrifice on the fashion front, especially when there are so many tempting new trends to explore. And when it comes to checking on the latest trends (that won’t break the bank), the first place I look is high street favourite, Zara.
While Zara is always a great go-to for party looks, it also always delivers on daytime staples that feel especially on-trend. This season, it seems that the high street hit is focused on putting a fresh spin on classics — tailoring is in brown, knee-high boots have a pointed-toe, and this winter’s must-have outerwear is the faux fur coat, a delicious item to wrap yourself in on the coldest of cold days.
Keep scrolling to explore the five winter trends Zara is backing right now.
THE EXPENSIVE-LOOKING WINTER TRENDS ZARA IS BACKING:
1. BROWN IS BACK
ZARA
Basic Wool Polo Shirt
A polo knit is pure quiet luxury, and a brown version hits the perfect note between elevated and effortless.
ZARA
Ankle Boots With Buckle
With the buckle detail and glossy finish, these versatile ankle boots look far more expensive than they are.
ZARA
Trousers With Double Pleat
In my opinion, every wardrobe needs a pair of brown tailored trousers. They just always come in so handy.
2. POINTED TOES
ZARA
Buckled Slingback Shoes
Burgundy tones continue to be a top trend, meaning these pointed-toe kitten heels get two fashion points.
ZARA
Split Suede Kitten Heel Ankle Boots
Suede ankle boots look so good when paired with white denim.
ZARA
Animal Print High-Heel Slingback Shoes
I’m dreaming of this leopard print pair—such a great shoe to have on hand to instantly elevated a simple black outfit.
3. FAUX FUR OUTERWEAR
ZARA
Animal Print Faux Fur Coat Zw Collection
Sure, shearling jackets are cool, but why not go all out with a long, patterned faux fur coat?
4. TRUE-BLUE DENIM
ZARA
Trf Wide-Leg High-Waist Full Length Jeans
Whatever cut of jean you go for, make sure you invest in a true indigo wash this season.
