Ann Taylor Resort/Spring 2012

I was a busy little shopping bee this weekend, also stopping by and trying on some new Ann Taylor items. They’ve been having almost weekly promotions for a while now, with their current offering, as of Sunday night, being 40% off everything plus free shipping on a purchase of $150 or more.

Striped Scoopneck Short-Sleeve Tee – M, Green House, also comes in Black – I saw stripes everywhere all weekend. I had purchased the Marina Striped Boatneck Tee in Lush Green from Loft but it was too small so I was happy to find this one at AT.

Cotton Twill Perfect Walking Shorts – 8, Black, also comes in White and two tones of Khaki – This size was loose in the waist and hips on me so I sized to a 6.

Size 6 – A better fit throughout the waist and hips. I think these will be perfect for our trip to Europe this summer. These hit me right above the knee but may hit a little higher on you taller ladies. It’s a great comfortable short.

Cotton Side Zip Shorts – 8, Blue Lapis – Again, these were quite loose on me in the waist and hips. This is my favorite color of the Spring.

Size 6 – A much better fit throughout the waist and hips.

Modern Cropped Denim Jeans – 8, Blue (very similar in color to the Blue Grotto at J Crew). They also come in Campfire and Dayglow Yellow. The 8, again, was loose through the hip and thigh but I could tell they were not as tight or snug as the J Crew Garment Dyed-Twill Jeans.

Size 6 – A much better fit. Also, these are meant to be cropped but are ankle length on me (5′ 2″).

Dayglow Yellow in 6 – I think it was the color that shows more than I wanted. I didn’t try the 8 in these but might prefer them over the 6.

Scoopneck Short-Sleeve Tee – M, Blue Lapis – Another cute colored tee that fits TTS and comes in a variety of colors.

Striped Knit Top – #268151, Small, Green/Black, $78 – Fits TTs and feels like a ponte knit. It is not currently online.

 
Tuxedo Stripe Jeans – 6, Marine Blue – These are a slim fit jean with a black tuxedo stripe along the sides.  These are the regular not the Petite as you can see by the length on one leg, where I’m on my toes. Cute concept but not for me.

Colorblocked Silk Short-Sleeve Top – 6, Electric Blue – Fits TTs and is 92% Silk, 8% Spandex.

Doubleweave Fashion Ankle Pants – 6, Intense Cobalt – This is a Cotton/Poly/Spandex blend that feels like a ponte’ knit. These should hit an average height person right above the ankle but, of course, on me, below the ankle. This was quite comfortable and with the spandex will stretch out some when you wear them.

Whew! So that was my Ann Taylor afternoon. See anything you like?

    I like to hear the AT colored denim is as tight as the JCrew. I want to try the yellow. And with all the promos they've been running for % off total purchase, they'll probably be less expensive!

    Great pics. I haven't seen their latest color palette, so thanks for sharing. The blues look lovely.
