Eu-pt picked up a peplum top for herself at the ever-popular Zara.

Aquila, who hails from Australia but is currently in the U.K., is taking advantage of the country's abundance of Zara stores. “I do have to keep baggage restrictions in mind so I am trying not to go too crazy,” she admitted. This mint green Zara skirt marks her first purchase in the U.K.

The star print tank that emma peel bought from Forever21 is on trend and easy to style for casual summer days.

White jeans are a summer essential, and this skinny pair from Zara comes recommended by eu-pt. “Not as transparent as most high-street white skinny jeans, and not too tight,” she reviewed.
