Get In, We’re Going Shopping…
I’ve been doing lots of online browsing recently, and my carts are getting full so let’s do some edits with my favorite pieces and highly requested items like “The Row vibes” but on a Zara budget:
I’ve had several requests in my Q&A boxes to find some items that give off The Row vibes but at a high street price point, so I’ve been slowly curating a list of items at Zara that I think are great similar options. I made a huge edit of these items shown below and many more:
Sheer is having a big moment this year and I’m just in love with all the variations coming out. While I’m not one for wearing it with just a regular bra and underwear, there’s still lots of ways to layer them to add dimension to an outfit and keep the layers lightweight. I got this skirt (I know right, me in a skirt?!) It’s rare but these sheer ones and especially this tan color really spoke to me, and it has a modern edge to cut the girly factor. I sized up 1 size to a medium and fits perfect with a touch of room to layer. I also just got these stunning earrings (not heavy and super impact!) and this ear cuff (no piercing required!)

Someone asked for help with tops that are longer and would work with capris so I put together this edit which includes some tops I personally own and love like my beige shirt I wear nonstop (I wear size xs, NAT15 for 15% off), and my Carven shirt that has the coolest shine and shoulder pad detailing.
I’ve had some requests to link some Medium The Row Park Totes in stock (I have been a very vocal lover of this bag for the practicality, light weight, and beautiful soft leather). This ivory is a nice color for summer but also the navy would be a great alternative to black that still goes with everything.
These sneakers I purchased after I asked for some input on this video and they feel super comfy! An easy sneaker for day to day, and something about grey in a sneaker just feels right (but also come in lots of other color ways). I got my true to size.
And of course my beloved new fish necklace I’ve been talking about nonstop in my IG stories when I first saw it to when I bought it and now wearing it with glee. Koi fish represent perseverance, strength, prosperity, and all the good things, so I’m all about that. And I love personality jewelry to add a special touch to outfits. This will be particularly fab for summer!
Side note, just pre-ordered this incredible shell and crochet necklace ! Such an interesting piece and I picture styling both casually with a simple tank/tee and shorts for summer, or juxtaposed with a super cool modern look like a suit. I think this will be a brand to keep on your radar.
I recently bought these grey lace up sandals after becoming fully obsessed with this brand recently, and I love them! Run true to size and found them comfortable with the padded footbed and the suede is nice and soft. Come in other color ways too. My second pair of sandals from them after these black thong sandals and I’ve been really pleased with both purchases.
Always crushing on neutrals of course and these are some recent pieces that have caught my eye below. This khaki vest is from the recent Moda Operandi x The Frankie Shop edit which of course I am swooning over as TFS is one of my absolute favorite brands. Worth checking out for some cool summer pieces.
My go-to natural nail polishes are from Manucurist- their active line is super pretty sheer polishes that are easy and quick to apply and give a nice healthy shine to the nail. I also love their gel polishes which stay on for me better than any salon gel I’ve had, and can be removed quick and easy with their polish remover (it literally will peel off, I have no idea how it works so well but no fuss at all). The active line doesn’t need to be cured under the light so it’s much quicker and what I’ve been leaning towards recently for the convenience. It usually lasts about 1- 2 weeks for me (and the gel 2 weeks sometimes more). Code NAILSNATALIE for 15% off site if you’re looking to check it out!
Belt is my most recent Aureum Collective belt, and they are running 25% off right now for Memorial Day sale! You know how much I love and wear Aureum, so it’s a great time to shop if you’ve been eyeing any of my belts, sunglasses, and accessories! Linking all the items I personally own here to check out.
(some people have messaged me a couple of the items/sizes are selling out, so if that’s the case, you can always use my discount code which will work again after this sale ends ( NATALIE20 for 20% off )
COS has some cool pieces right now- I put this edit together recently:
Also put together a Tom Ford Gucci vintage edit recently here
Other notes, if you’re looking for MDW sales info, I’ll try to put any important ones /ones I have items from or are personally shopping in my Instagram stories throughout this week, but I try not to be overwhelming on those because I want to keep those as focused and helpful as possible. You can also search my LTK where I’ve linked pretty much everything for the past few years and actually in the search bar you can filter by item such as “ shorts” and any of my outfits with shorts should come up, or by brand that you’re interested in (for example if they are having a sale) and it will filter by those items I’ve shared before. I just learned about that so wanted to share because that’s actually a really cool and helpful feature!
I also have my Shop My shelves organized to shop by brands, outfits, beauty shelves, edits, etc and any of my personal promo codes will show up on there automatically!
