Zaoebi, my old Zara items are still going strong too! All wovens, Summery, and I'm very fond of them.

That Zara dress with the asymmetric gathers is really intriguing. It may be ridiculous on me, but I ordered it to try!

Smaller size sweater is here, and I really can’t tell the difference. Is it better?
Apologies for briefness, just got back from long weekend trip with my girlfriends, feeling exhausted.

I prefer the smaller size! Neater fit. Go with that one.

Thanks Angie, it is settled, keeping the smaller size.

Another vote for the smaller size, I like the fit around the neck better.

Sorry to hear you decided to return the striped dress. I think it is terrific on you!

I prefer the smaller size. It looks like a better fit.

I like the smaller size much better.

Thank you all, I have kept the smaller size and just returned the rest. To make up for this failed shopping attempt, just made huge order from Zara. Some top picks, and some fun looking random items. Will keep you posted in another thread when it arrives.

I'm so glad you kept the striped sweater. I have high hopes that Angie's dress will be a winner on you too!
