December Finds From Talbots

I want to thank Talbots for sponsoring this post. 

As you know, we are highly selective with who we partner with, but Talbots is a no-brainer. 

We’ve long recommended the brand in dozens of unsponsored articles, so I was delighted to work with them to share some stand-out pieces from their new arrivals. 

I’ve said it a million times, but it bears repeating, Talbots is an incredible resource.

From their classic style to their size-inclusive selection (which should be an industry standard), it’s no wonder they are a reader-favorite brand.

So let’s make some outfits because they do festive holiday pieces well, and if you’re like me, you might need a couple of new things to get you through the season. 

Some of these pieces were gifted, and some I bought myself. ?

Right now, you can get 50% off markdowns and 40% off full-priced items.

Platforms & Cashmere – Vicki Archer

I dare not admit this.

I want some platforms.

It’s not my first rodeo in these ankle breakers and heaven help me trying to navigate them 20 years on. I will though. I need a shake-up – too many sweats and hoodies since lockdown and fashion malaise has set in. It’s time I stood taller and tackled a heel.

Except for one thing.

I need to modify the look slightly or I will end up in A & E. I’ll wear a platform but not the 10-inch designer skyscrapers I’m seeing. While I think they are very “of the moment” and will update the older wardrobe pieces I am not sure they are a large investment essential.

Along with these uplifters, I think we need some bright cashmere – think the pinks, the purples and the citrus.

If you have seen the latest Valentino campaign, you get where my head
