This Sell-Out Zara Lace Dress Is Available In A New Colour
The result? He found the last one in one of Oxford Street's stores, and of course gained instant boyfriend points for retrieving the goods. And the thing is, I didn't even realise the black version of this chocolatey winner had already gone viral (similar to this Dissh dress I've already told you about). But since searching for 'Zara lace dress' on repeat, it seems the algorithm really picked up on my desperation for this dress, and since then, it's been all over my TikTok.

Here I am at the festival wearing the Zara dress, sans bra (it's a bit tricky to wear one with the skinny spaghetti straps and lace front detailing), and I loved the way it looked withflat knee-high boots –something I've also been raving about as the outfit to wear when it's hot, but could rain. With lace detailing being a mini trend – being spotted on everything from shorts to tops this season – I'm not surprised this dress with its interesting, expensive-looking cut is a key item. Especially when it's only £49.99, too.
After having a quick search, I also discovered that the sell-out black version is currently selling for £105 on eBay, so I've linked this below in case as you feel the urge to get it, like I did. I also recommend having a look on Vinted.

I really like how @andi.stylist has styled her black version over a pair of wide-leg trousers – something I'll definitely be copying to transform mine into a top.
If you're happy to get the similar vibe of the viral black Zara dress, without going on a hunt for it, Zara have also just dropped this halter neck version that has the same asymmetric detail and lace placement. And I appreciate how the higher neckline will make it easier when it comes to the bra situation, too.

If you don't want to spend more than £49.99 then this style is so similar. The halter neck detail is elevating the humble black dress from all angles – I would wear it with matchy-matchy black heels for a night out or over cream satin trousers with flip flops for a daytime look.

If a mini dress isn't your thing, or you just prefer wearing separates, then you'll want to know about the new top version, too. Already being spotted all over social, it has the same look of the viral dress, but just shorter, so it's easier to style as a 'nice top and jeans' look, with linen Bermuda shorts or even over a lace maxi skirt for holiday. In black (like that dress), pastel blue or butter yellow, if these sell-out as quick as I think they will, my boyfriend better get his running trainers on to go on another Zara hunt to find them!

British comedian faces up to three years in a Turkish prison after she forgot to pay at a Zara store
A British comedian faces up to three years in Turkish prison after walking out of a Zara store without paying - despite going back to apologise when she realised her mistake. Cerys Nelmes, a stand-up comic from the Cotswolds, was shopping at the clothing store in Istanbul on July 22 when she says she absentmindedly left before ringing up her purchases. She claims she returned to the store to hand back the items and offered to pay, but was instead detained, locked in a room for hours without explanation, and eventually arrested for shoplifting. Ms Nelmes said she was taken to a police station, pressured to sign documents in a language she could not read, and held in a cell for 24 hours with no food, toilet or water. The comedian, who once played a paramedic in medical drama Casualty, said: 'I was told they didn't understand me.' The next day, she was brought before a judge who released her but banned her from leaving the country. She now faces a potential three-year sentence as the case proceeds. Nelmes says she is stranded in Turkey, unable to afford accommodation and missing out on work back home, putting her and her son at risk of losing their UK home. She said: 'I'm ok and have been taken in by a Turkish family who gave me food and a bed.' Ms Nelmes describes herself on her website as a 'leading mc on the comedy circuit' and regularly gigs for the UK military - including being the last comedian to perform for UK troops before they withdrew from Afghanistan. Her acting roles have included Casualty and JK Rowling's The Casual Vacancy. Alongside her comedy performances, she also made headlines in April 2019 when she saved a fellow diner from choking at a restaurant before a gig. The comedian was grabbing a bite to eat in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire, when she peformed the Heimlich manoeuvre to dislodge a prawn that was stuck in a woman's throat. In a post on social media speaking about her detention and subsequent stranding in Turkey, she said: 'On Tuesday I left a Zara store in Istanbul without paying for items. 'I returned straight away and handed the items to staff. I was asked to pay and I said I would and the manager accepted this. 'To cut a long story short I was then taken to a locked room where hours later after no communication from anyone I was taken away by police and held in a police station and was asked to sign things I couldn't read. 'I was put in a prison cell for 24 hours with no food or toilet facilities. When I asked for water, I was told they didn't understand me. 'I was handcuffed and taken for fingerprints and mugshots at 3am. I was handcuffed and taken to court the following day and put in a cell. 'I appeared before the judge and was told by a translator that I was released, but unable to leave Turkey for an undetermined amount of time. 'He said I was lucky to not be put in prison but I currently face up to three years. I have to report to a local police station every Monday. 'I am lucky I have good friends in Turkey who are currently looking after me, and trying to translate the paperwork. 'I have no money, no earnings coming in from home, and I am running out of important medication. I will lose my home which I share with my son, and livelihood. 'I am not looking for sympathy. I made a mistake which I tried to immediately rectify. I am embarrassed for my friends, my family, and I have made my 78-year-old mum unwell. I will never forgive myself for what I have done.' An Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office spokesperson said: 'We are providing support to a British national in Turkey.'

I Shop For A Living – This Is The Dress Trend Cool Girls Reach For Every Summer
& Other Stories, Linen Mini Dress M&S, Pure Cotton Square Neck Midaxi Dress Nobody's Child, Black Vera Midi Dress Faithfull, Hedy Strapless Gathered Maxi Dress Ganni, Black Cotton Poplin Tie String Mini Dress COS, Pima Cotton Halterneck Dress Rixo, Seraphina Midi Dress H&M, Broderie Anglaise Shirt Dress Zara, Flowing Midi Dress With Elasticated Detail ME+EM, Cheesecloth Relaxed Midi Day Dress In the rankings of wardrobe essentials, a black dress is practically royalty, up there with those faded blue jeans you've been wearing for years. No matter how many vivid floral midis and sorbet-hued pastel frocks summer brings to the table, there's something about a little (or long) black dress that's just so chic. Personally, I've flirted with this season's heavy hitters – yes, I mean butter yellow dresses and a brief obsession with drop waist maxis – but every time I need to feel put-together with absolutely no effort, I invariably reach for a black dress, and for good reason. Whether I'm slipping into a tailored black shirt dress for the office, styling a slinky slip for date night, or throwing on a crocheted black dress at the beach, it's a staple that always delivers. The best black dresses for the summer are basically as close as you can get to a style cheat code, and somehow they're better than ever this year. ©Instagram/@dualipa ©Getty Images/PG/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images Don't believe us? Take a closer look at the A-list, many of whom have been taking their black summer dresses out for a spin, on and off the red carpet. Emily Ratajkowski wore a sleek midi at a recent Gucci event, while Vanessa Kirby was spotted in not one, but two breezy black dresses in New York. For more casual takes, both Dua Lipa and Alexa Chung casually styled black lace dresses on holiday recently. Proof that no matter if your style leans towards boho, relaxed casual or sultry, a black dress nails every summer brief with polished ease. An antithesis to summer's ubiquitous white dresses, a black frock is naturally more forgiving, easily hiding that occasional iced coffee spill and grass stain. However, it's the wardrobe staple's wide spectrum of use that really sells it for us, ranging from sexy silk and satin designs to formal takes (think shirt dresses and modest midis) and more casual constructions in cotton and linen in all shades of black from deep black to faded charcoal. From classic A-line or column silhouettes to trendy sheer, draped and drop-waist designs, black summer dresses are imbued with a timeless charm that'll last for years to come. Of course, not all black dresses are created equal, and every major label, luxury or high-street, has a few options. Earlier this summer, Ganni's belted summer dress, made waves on Instagram and sold out in record speed, while most of us at Grazia snapped up Zara's viral lace dress last week. If you're looking to splurge, the style set is especially taken with Doen's Ischia dress. The celeb-loved bestseller is proving incredibly popular thanks to its smocked bodice, adjustable waist tie and an A-line skirt that suits literally every body. ©Instagram/@ilanatorbiner Dôen,Ischia Dress For a more affordable alternative, we've also been eyeing & Other Stories' linen mini dress with a simple shift silhouette that'll work wonders across body types (even if you're under 5'2"). The breezy construction will keep you cool while the simple boatneck adds a sophisticated flair. ©instagram/@anastasiia_kostrub 2. & Other Stories, Linen Mini Dress A universally flattering icon, the best black dresses will keep you looking sharp even on the days when getting dressed feels like an impossible task. Styled simply with straw basket bags and suede sandals for the summer, the best ones will layer effortlessly under knits and jackets come autumn. Upcoming trip to the Med, that black-tie wedding, sweltering work commutes, or al fresco brunchs; no matter what's on your calendar, there's a perfect black summer dress for you, and we've curated the best below.

Brit comedian 'could be jailed' for three years in Turkey after 'embarrassing mistake'
Cerys Nelmes, a stand-up comic, claims that she walked out of a Zara shop in Turkey without paying and although returning and owning up to her error, she was arrested. A British comedian who walked out of a Turkish Zara store without paying could face up to three years behind bars, despite going back to apologise upon realising her mistake. On July 22, Cerys Nelmes, a stand-up comic from Bristol, said it was a mistake and claimed she left the store with clothes before realising she had not gone through the till. After returning to the store to hand back the items and offering to pay, Nelmes says she was instead detained, locked in a room for hours without explanation, and eventually arrested for shoplifting, reports the Mirror. She said she was taken to a police station, pressured to sign documents in a language she could not read, and held in a cell for 24 hours with no food, water or a toilet. She said: "I was told they didn't understand me." The next day, she was brought before a judge who released her but banned her from leaving the country. She now faces a potential three-year sentence as the case proceeds. Nelmes says she is stranded in Turkey, unable to afford accommodation and missing out on work back home, putting her and her son at risk of losing their UK home. She said: "I'm ok and have been taken in by a Turkish family who gave me food and a bed. I don't deserve all the kind words from people but I am very grateful." Recounting what happened, she said that she had left the store with several items of clothing before realising her error. Despite returning to the store, claiming she had returned the items and wanted to pay, Nelmes was seized for shoplifting. The English stand-up comic explained the incident in a social media post saying: "On Tuesday I left a Zara store in Istanbul without paying for items. "I returned straight away and handed the items to staff. I was asked to pay and I said I would and the manager accepted this. To cut a long story short I was then taken to a locked room where hours later after no communication from anyone I was taken away by police and held in a police station and was asked to sign things I couldn't read.

"I was handcuffed and taken for fingerprints and mugshots at 3am. I was handcuffed and taken to court the following day and put in a cell.

I made a mistake which I tried to immediately rectify. I am embarrassed for my friends, my family, and I have made my 78-year-old mum unwell. I will never forgive myself for what I have done. "I believe I did it for mental health medical problems, but ultimately there is no excuse." The comedian has asked for public support as the ongoing court proceedings are causing her to lose work and earnings. The British Embassy said in a short statement that they are providing their support. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
