No problem. Tomorrow, I’ll be shopping Zara.com from the couch after the boys are in bed. The Spanish fast fashion chain is launching online shopping in the U.S. on Wednesday, Sept. 7–with free delivery to all 50 states. You won’t miss a thing: Zara’s full range of women’s, men’s and children’s clothing will be available online.
If you’ve never had the chance to shop one of Zara’s 30 U.S. stores–there are 4,000 stores worldwide–you’re sure to be delighted.

Zara is known for quickly responding to customer demand–if red dresses are flying out of the store, expect more styles in stores within days.

Online returns will be free within 30 days. Here’s a peek:
