Fashion: Ann Taylor 2012 Summer Collection

Last week I was able to get a sneak peek of Ann Taylor’s summer collection and the looks were chic and vibrant. The collection is filled with styles in neutrals, poolside glamour, flashy brights and feminine silhouettes for every occasion making you crave the warm season.

My Favorite Pieces

I am a huge fan of being bold and the Phillipa Pointy Slingback Heel $228 is a great shoe to add pop or to bring out a LBD. The small Exotic Gala Bag $198 is perfect for a night out and it comes in a gorgeous pinks theme.

To add to your pink fetish, you get glam and comfort with the Stephanie Dorsay Sandal $158 and rock the look with a Perfect Neon Skinny Belt $30, it comes in a variety of shades to mix up your personal style.

The Summer Cardigan $68 is flirty and light-weight and the Bejeweled Skinny Belt $98 brings out the POW with it’s fashion glitz.

Interview: Fall Trends at Ann Taylor

In-store Manager Monika Gershauser let’s us in on the new concept store in Short Hills, NJ and tells us how you can rock these styles.

The look of the concept store feels like your own personal closet, everything is so lavishing and womanly.




The Exotic Leather Avenue Tote $248 is a true fashion statement, great “IT” piece for the fall styles.

Accessories are still statement makers for adding that wow factor to an outfit and the bling never goes out of style.

Shades of blue will still be transitioned into the fall season so don’t be afraid to rock it mid September as well.

Double Keeper Belt Lizard $58

I really heart the Shimmer Fringe Necklace $88 because it can be dolled up as dressy or a simple look.
Bangle with Pave Plate $48
This simple Heat Seal Tank $62 can be rocked with simple leggings and hoop earrings add some glitzy bangles and it’s a perfect night out look.

*Current Sale 30 % off Full Priced Suit Jackets + Matching Pant Or Skirt
Special thanks to Monika Gershauser for the interview, the store looks fabulous and I  am sure I will be back shopping soon!

The Fall Trends To Rock Now
ANN TAYLOR


People Style Watch Fashion Director Kate Dimmock dishes on her top trends from the Ann Taylor Fall 2011 Collection. 

Kate’s Top Key Looks For Fall
When you find the right jacket get it before the weather get’s colder, Kate Dimmock suggest that we take the time to find a coat now because waiting too late in the fall season may leave us empty handy with a stylish piece.

Wedges are still in for the fall, the color is bolder but the comfort is definitely there.
The Lady Bag $178 is a  great statement look and it puts you on top of the red trend.

Events: Ann Taylor Fall 2011

Ann Taylor
Fall 2011 Collection



The Ann Taylor Fall Collection kicked off in Summit, New Jersey at the Beacon Hill Club on July 22nd, where a new concept of Chic, Elegant and Luxurious fashions were the focus of the new Ann Taylor. The fall collection featured many womanly styles that were perfect for a fashionista to the modern day business woman. Ann Taylor Fall Collection focuses on color blocking, making statements with a red signature look and bringing back that elegance to your overall style.

Check out a few of my favorites from the new collection.
This handbag is a great signature fall necessity to fit with a gorgeous trench coat and a pair of sexy stilettos.

This Snake Print Cuff w/ Textured Lock $58 adds a bit of an edge with a elegant vibe for a sleek sleeveless dress or even a fitted turtleneck style.

This top is very versatile it’s great in pairing with a navy pant or a you can rock it now with a nude pencil skirt.

I love the style of these Myra Platform Tassel Pumps $198  it’s a great style for those PR girls in the office or a corporate diva who loves a fabulous heel. The matching Weekend CrossBody Bag $128 is just as fabulous and it works well with the shoes.

A great length skirt is always good to have with bare legs or a nice pair of sheer stockings, the color is easy to mix with other amazing fall shades.

This Downtown Sheath Dress $128 was the talk of the event because you can wear this style with so many different accessories and it will still look fabulous. And the boldness of this color is so powerful.

The Structured Ponte Knit Top $78 is great for skirts and a pant theme with just a simple wedge shoe.

The Ann Taylor Fall Collection has a style and a look for every woman. You can find the right dress, jacket, skirt or accessory to rock with something in your wardrobe or for something new as well.
