I'm so excited to announce my partnership with my local Talbots store for this post! It's been a place I've always known about, but never felt was my style. That is until I went for a little fall fashion event with my alumnae chapter in November. I was amazed that they'd updated their look for the fashion forward working woman....with a preppy under current.
I worked with the ladies there to put together a few looks that you could wear at your family gathering, no matter it's level of formality!
Let's get into the looks!
This first look is what I consider most traditional for Easter. If you were going to church and then a more formal brunch after with a full family affair. Right when I walked into their 'staging' area I saw these pieces together and it just screamed 'EASTER' at me -- directly.
I'm wearing a sz 12 in the dress and a medium cardigan. The dress is a classic sheath cut and hits me just above the knee. I would recommend some great nude flats or heels to finish this look off, and your favorite Stella & Dot accessories(although most jewelry in these pictures is from Talbots as well)!
The next dress is for those who might not want something so form fitting. I would still consider it perfect for church and after events! The skirt is really flowy and I loved spinning around in it! Again, for reference I was a size 12 in this as well, but I felt I might have been able to go down a size for my personal fit preference!
The next sets of outfits are for those that aren't incline to wear dresses, or are maybe just getting together with family and want to feel 'adult' and put together. I went into today's styling knowing that I would be buying these pants, since I saw them in the catalog just two days ago. But when I paired them with this blue and cream peplum-esque top, the whole outfit HAD.TO.BE.MINE. I feel it really is the epitome of my style - modern classics.
I realized when I got home, Rob never got a full length view for the pants. They are a skinnier fit, cropped right at the ankle bone. I'm in a size 12 pant and size 10 top. I can see me getting some MAJOR use out of both these pieces come full spring/summer weather!
I also wanted to put together a look in case it was a little chillier in your neighborhood, or if you don't happen to like your arms (which is totally OK). I got a large in this sweater, and definitely could have gone down a size! It's a great weight for summer days with shorts and will keep you warm when it gets a little brisk at night!
The final look I really wanted to make sure I put out there is the casual one. I know not everyone goes to church, or has a big to-do with family. Sometimes it's just you, your fur baby and some Netflix on Easter. Although, even if you were with family, I think this next outfit would still make you feel 'together' in front of your in-laws. I even rocked the completely casual vibe by being barefoot!
It's from the T by Talbots active wear line. These jogger style pants have a heathered-like print that gives them interest, and the whole darn outfit was just comfy. I could definitely see pieces from this line fitting easily into a busy mom's weekend wardrobe. I was a large in all these pieces, would probably only go down to a medium in the cardigan for fit.
I recommend if you're still looking for that nice outfit for Easter, swing into your nearest Talbots to give some of these options a try! They are investment pieces, so go in knowing you may pay more than you normally would, but you're going to get an item that will power through several trendy seasons. I look forward to working with Talbots in the future!
I'm excited to go home for the holiday, see friends and help a few college friends style their wardrobes! I hope you all get to spend quality time with your loved ones!
I'll see you later, back here in my closet!
