It’s NOT your mother’s Talbots anymore! Even a die-hard flashionista can find lots to love! I was invited to cover the annual Hostess Night Event at a local store. Here’s what I bought with the evening’s discount.  I could build a whole other blog post on items I had to put on my wish list. A girl has to have a little self-control!

1. I’m a cardigan lover. I’d like this one in all the colors, but for now I settled for Charcoal Grey.  2. I never would have tried this color (Pool) but Debbie, the manager, convinced me. It looked great with the rust jacket.  3. Animal prints are like cardigans, I can’t get enough. Can’t wait to wear it with jeans and a cardigan, of course!  4. The Rust jacket, the fit is so modern; cropped and nipped at the waist.  5. Grrr! Another animal. Zebra pumps, I’ll wear them with almost anything EXCEPT other animal prints.  6. If you haven’t tried Talbots pants on yet, do yourself a favor, the fit is awesome. These signature fit black pants are going to get a real workout in my closet.  7. The rolled up leg is MY look, so these boyfriend jeans were a no-brainer.  8. This wrap is deceptive; it’s so lightweight you’d never guess how generous it is. I’ll wear it as a scarf and a wrap.
