Fall refreshers / Zara booties?

I’ve really been wanting to refresh my closet for fall. I’m bored with what I have and really want to focus on two capsules that serve my life now.

Sunday I had the chance to make it to a local mall and got 5 items I think will be workhorses for me. I’m excited to wear them.

Black flowy T-shirt H&M
White flowy T-shirt H&M
Olive cargo parka H&M (maternity but doesn’t fit like that on me! Dressing room pic to show fit haha)
Navy lightweight jacket old navy
Camo jacket old navy

I feel like I’m slowly coming back to my modern classic style. It feels right.

On to the QUESTION portion of my post!
Now... I saw a friend post selfies in these shoes and I immediately loved them. So 90s and animal print is a favorite. The heel is manageable but if truth be told, I’m in flats most days.
I think these could be just the addition to help 2018-ize my fall and winter wardrobe.
Anyone have these? Comfort? Run true to size? This would be my first shoe experience at Zara. Not sure of quality. Thanks for any input.

Love the leopard boots,can’t comment on fit/comfort but the style is fab .I have a pair of animal print booties and they are so useful and go with everything.

My favorite piece here is the olive utility jacket. I think it will be your go-to for chilly weather

Kate

I really like your purchases, especially the olive utility jacket.

The Zara booties are really cute. I've bought booties from Zara, and they are one of my most worn pairs of booties. I got my regular size in them, and they were perfect.

Jane

Zara boots are cute! I’ve had a pair of Zara shoes previously and they were comfortable.

The olive coat is super!

RobinF

Nice choices! I love swingy tees, so much more comfortable than straight ones. The jackets are cute too, will you keep them all or are you trying to choose?

Well those shoes look great. Zara is a label that is a bit hit and miss for me. However, when the items are hits, they are absolutely brilliant. I really like all of your new purchases that look polished yet casual.

Parka looks fabulous.

I’ve had a few pairs of Zara boots - leather - and they were AMAZING.

no idea on comfortable etc...but super cute and would totally make an outfit...and the camo jacket reminding me that now that the weathers turned, I need to pull out an old Gap jacket and start wearing it again

Sorry I'm late getting back in the thread to comment. Thanks to all of you for taking time to comment and give feedback. Overall it was positive - nice functional pieces and the Zara footwear seems like a good bet! I'll keep you posted.

Lisa p and cardiff girl, thanks for the encouragement! haha I do think the animal print would be a good addition to my footwear lineup this year.

Joy, the utility jacket is already a go to piece! I've worn it twice already. The great thing about it is the length is bum-covering enough that I can wear it with slim bottoms and tunic tops.

Kate, thanks! Knowing your experience with Zara booties definitely helps.

Jane, thank you!

RobinF, I'm keeping them all! LOL I recently reviewed my fall and winter items and I was sorely lacking in the topper department. It doesn't get that cold here and I need layers, so these are all perfect in their own ways. Different cuts and colors, so hopefully I've now got a topper for any silhouette I'll be rocking this fall! And YESSSS to the swingy tees. I can't do form fitted ones anymore!

Bijou, you hit the nail on the head. I want polished but casual. That is my style! Glad you think they'll work.

Angie, thanks for chiming in! Glad you like the parka I do, too. I think it's my favorite of the 3 jackets. The booties say they're leather, though I'm not sure how much give they have because of the print. I may give them a go. Thanks for your comments!

kkards, glad I could serve! Haha I am liking the camo all of a sudden, not sure why, but it struck me this time so I got it.

I have a similar pair of leopard print booties from Zara, except mine have a narrow heel, and they're pretty comfortable. I don't have fussy feet though.

Katerina

The boots are gorgeous looking! So tempted...
No experience with Zara shoes yet,
Like the parka, very cool.
