A lot of dreck but some v v v good stuff which I have worn to death

wide leg trousers which are sort of flow-y when I walk, fab
2 v flattering jersey dresses which acknowledge that I have a mumgut to an extent, yet camouflage it
2 boatneck crepe-y sleeveless blouses in bold colourblocky yves Klein blue and British auto racing green
burnt Sienna coloured slimfit chinos

when it is great it is FABBO

I love zara esp the TRF jeans. Scarves very good and some t shirts. Dresses good but sizing small so have to get large. Never tried the shoes. Have heard good things about the sunglasses. In general I like it
