That's how I feel when I look at their website but when I go to my local store I can't find any of the things I liked there. It's mostly still sale stuff so hopefully the A/W stuff will turn up eventually.

Nice boots!

They are having a good season. Early summer was utter trash, nasty polyesters and no substance. Right now they have lots of nice things. My coral boucle jacket (from the sale) has already reached good CPW status.

Oooo there was lots of new stuff in the shop today. I tried on 4 pairs of trousers, 2 scarfs, 3 pairs of boots, 2 pairs of shoes, two coats and 4 tops. I wanted them all! I just ended up with the boots for me and a pair of boots for DD.

I may have to go during the day sometime this week when it is less hectic in there. I hate in in there on days like today, when it is utter chaos and nothing is in it's place.

The boots I had to order through the website to get delivered to the store because they only had 1 boot in my size! The other of the pair was missing...they spent an hour looking for it. Heaven knows where it went. Confused

Totally agree. I went in last week to return a couple of things and was very tempted to buy everything!

trixymalixy · 27/08/2012 18:48

Me too, there's a lot I would like in Zara atm.

Is it really better now then? I went in about a year ago and it was all such dreadful quality I gave it up

Might be tempted back :)

LackingNameChangeInspiration · 27/08/2012 20:28

must give it another look, last time I went in there was lots of stuff that looked lovely on the displays but it all looked dreadful on!

PretzelTime · 27/08/2012 20:43

So is the current collection of better quality than the previous ones?

4goingon14 · 27/08/2012 20:45

I have no complaints about the quality....most high street stuff is the same imo.

I just thing that the have a bunch of stuff that is bang on at the moment. It is the first time in a long time that I have wanted to buy many pieces from the same store.

PretzelTime · 27/08/2012 20:57

So the quality is as bad as before? Just wanted to be sure because I was tempted too.

noddyholder · 27/08/2012 20:59

I am the same in cos atm

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 27/08/2012 21:01

I don't like Zara. The website makes things look nice and then in store it's all either horrible looking, horrible feeling or both. The quality is v poor.

bigkidsdidit · 27/08/2012 21:23

It is, Remus. And the staff are so rude I really begrudge giving them any money!

4goingon14 · 27/08/2012 21:38

Well 2 of the staff spent over an hour looking for a second boot for me...so nothing bad to say.

Well I am wearing a pair of Zara jeans right now and loving them. They are so soft and fit perfectly. Actually I really like their jeans, I have a few different pairs in my wardrobe and none of them are falling apart.

That last pair of shoes that I bought from Zara are still doing well and I wear them ALOT.

I think I have found out why my local Zara is so rubbish - it's because I live in Hull. I went there today and asked whether they would be getting in the coats that I am currently coveting. I was told that the Hull branch doesn't get the more expensive items and I would have to go to Leeds or York to see them!
