Parisian Chic At Ann Taylor

I have to tell you, I am dying over Ann Taylor’s fall 2012 collection. When I saw the photos I was absolutely gobsmacked! Where did this come from? Have I been missing out on fabulous pieces? I admit, I have not been in Ann Taylor for years. It’s always felt very business lady to me, but not anymore. Inspired by head designer Lisa Axelson’s trip to Paris, this collection screams parisian cool girl. Featuring animal prints, pencil skirts, boxy gamine peacoats,cropped fur jackets and capes, and amazing accessories, there really isn’t one piece I don’t want. And don’t even get me started on the black and white wedding collection. I just hope someone gets married so I have a reason to buy one of the glamorous party dresses. Here is a sneak peak, featuring my favorite items.

Love this dress. The silhouette is perfection!

Tweeds with lace is so sexy!

The details, like the back bow, are really what makes each piece special.

The flare on the bottom of the skirt turns it from corporate to playful.

The cut and color of this coat is amazing.

Swing coats are always a very good thing.

A longer sleeved shift dress-perfect for fall and winter events.

Hello Paris!

With heels or boots, this dress is a must-have for me.

Super cool girl, not working girl. Ann has got some edge!

Where do I even start? This is a Megan outfit personified.

Each look is styled so well. The accessories are stunning.

The satin cuffs, the bracelets, the color…

I love that they’ve done a thicker heel.

One of the many shoe tables. One of everything please!

A winter wedding, a fabulous dress.

There are no words…

And just the right accessories…

A stunning little black dress that works all year long.

For work or special occasion (I adore the bow)
