‘I’ll wear it all year round’ gushes Zara shopper as she finds perfect top for summer that’ll look good at Christmas too
A SHOPPING fanatic has revealed she’s found the perfect top that you can wear all year round – insisting it will look just as good at Christmas as it does over a bikini.
Ellie Butler is queen of the high street hauls and regularly picks up on-trend bargains in the likes of Primark, H&M and even Sainsbury’s.
In a recent shopping spree, she bagged a selection of shorts, tops and a dress from Zara that will be perfect for spring and summer.
And the blonde beauty – the girlfriend of Celtic’s Liam Shaw, currently on loan at Wigan Athletic – admits she’s “obsessed” with one particular buy that she can wear any season.
The plain metallic knit sweater is a new spring arrival and is priced at £29.99.
It comes in sizes small, medium and large with Zara bosses warning it has a “larger fit than usual”.
Ellie insists the silver buy will be perfect to wear in the UK over summer and even in the likes of Tenerife as part of an evening outfit.
Trying it on, the size 10 fashionista – who is 5ft 7 – paired the knitwear with some Zara denim shorts, heels and a silver heart bag.
She said: “I feel this is a cool outfit. I really like this.
“I just think it’s nice and comfy. You’ve not tried too hard but you look effortlessly cool.
“I just love the metallic knit. Ithink it’s something a little bit different and you’ll get wear out of this all year round as well.
“You could wear this for Christmas parties, and over a bikini could be quite cute because it is a little bit mesh.
“I really, really love this.”
But if the long sleeves are putting you off for summer, there’s also a vest version of the knitted top too – and it will save you some pennies, priced at £22.99.
Elsewhere in store, fashion fans are obsessed with Zara’s new dress that’s perfect for hot summers and will look amazing on all body shapes.
Sadly, the dress has been getting so much attention that it has already begun to sell out online with only limited sizes still available.
Originally coming in XS – XL, there are limited sizes left on the Zara website right now.
To make sure you don’t miss on this holiday staple, we suggest you had to your local branch where you should be able to find it for just £35.99.
The 'secret' symbols on Zara clothing tags
The next time you head on a Zara shopping spree, take a look at the clothing tags.
You may find a small shape next to the size label, which serves a bigger purpose than being decorative.
According to the fashion and beauty Instagram account Dailychiclife, there’s a reason Zara tags have the symbols on them and you can use the shapes to find a better fit.
In a video, the Zara expert wrote that the square symbol means that the clothing item is true to size.
Meanwhile, a triangle on the tag means that item runs small and you may want to size up.
Lastly, a circle symbol on a Zara clothing tag indicates that the item runs big, meaning you may want to size down if you want a tighter fit.
