The Holiday Edit: Have a Very Zara Christmas!

Those who know me know that I swear by Zara. It's easily my favourite high street brand. The minimalist and sophisticated approach that the brand has towards fashion is the reason why my wardrobe is bursting with pieces from iteverything from t-shirts to gowns.

While browsing in a Zara store is always a spiritual experience, my favourite time of the year to go is during the fall/winter period. Their holiday collection is absolutely gorgeous, and some pieces are a must for this season. Here are my holiday favourites from Zara that I'm currently adding to my closet (and you should too!)

Studio Velvet Trousers

These velvet soft trousers are my ideal pair of pants. Slouchy yet structured, and comfortable beyond imagination, the deep jade colour makes this my number one festive pick.

Blazer with Back Pleat


The retro cape-like silhouette is the highlight of this blazing red jacket. Watch Santa get jealous of how christmas-sy you look in this pretty pleated piece.


Beaded Drawstring Bag


For me, December is that time of the year when it's absolutely acceptable (and necessary!) to bring out all the bling. Trade in your sensible everyday tote for this beaded beauty and dance away with all your essentials tucked into this nifty purse.


 Tie Style Scarf


This season saw the unprecedented rise of the skinny scarf across fashions. This burgundy scarf can dress up any old outfit and make it go from drab to fab in seconds. Definitely an investment!






With Alexander Wang bringing out the sleepwear-inspired look for Spring/Summer 2016, I feel it's time to usher in the trend a little early with this shimmering dress. Velvet is becoming a quick favourite of mine for the coming months.

The unique pleated and cinched peplum waistline of this blouse makes it stand out for me. The bold fire-engine red is a fitting ode to the holiday spirit and cheer.


Sequinned Blouse


This dreamy, sequinned off-the-shoulder blouse is the perfect amalgamation of dainty and party. It's easy to jazz up your favourite jeans and heels with this top.


 Swiss Dot Tights


I unfailingly associate Christmas with tights in my mindEvery. Single. Year. The holidays call for dresses, and winter calls for tights, and these adorable dotted tights are the best solution to goosebumps-covered legs.


Long Earrings


Your go-to bauble for wintry night-outs has to be these collarbone-grazing gem and chain earrings. There can be no other in this 'lobe' affair.


Strappy Top with Neck Tie


What looks great with strappy tops? Answer: skinny scarves. Here, you get both together, and do they look absolutely smashing!



This shimmering piece should be the dress for your New Year's Eve celebrations. Skip all jewellery and wear it with your favourite heels and your hair down.


Laminated Flat Shoes


These mirror finish flats are my holiday shoes, period. The trendy slipper shape with the sensible single inch heel make this an on-point fashion and comfort choice.


Gemstone Necklaces


This set of five minimalist necklaces is absolutely stunning. Perfect for adding a chic amount of sparkle to your ensemble, the amulet-like pendants provide for a pop of colour. Wear them all together or separately!


So there you have itmy holiday edit from Zara. Happy shopping!
