Talbots - August collection is online

Checked out the new arrivals earlier today.  Some are still back-ordered.  Not a lot on my wish list at the moment, but I do like the moss green zebra print cotton shirt.  Smiley Happy

Re: Talbots - August collection is online

My Talbots card has been gathering dust for months now.  I just can't find anything I really like other than jeans and I have way too many pairs of jeans already.

Ironically, I loved everything there about 5 years ago when they hired a new head designer.  I was honestly surprised when I would read reviews of items that apparently I was the only one who was happy.

I saw a few cute things but, I'll wait. My favorite collection is the fall one.  I need a new Shetland blazer!

I forgot Talbots existed.   I shopped there a lot back in my brick&mortar shopping days.

Re: Talbots - August collection is online

Talbots is my go to as their petite sizes fit me perfectly every time.  I rarely need to return anything for fit.  Prices are a little out of my budget but I wait for sales which happen often.  Now that I have retired I don't buy as much as I used to as I dress more casually. I get their new collection pamplet in the mail every time there is a new collection.  I also love that I have spent enough there in the past that I get free shipping with their credit card and an extra percent off on some sales.  QVC could take a lesson from them with their Q card and offer perks.

@Catch71 It's about the only place I buy from now.  The prices are too close to QVC, the quality is far better, I like the styles better and the colors are easy to match and with sales and discounts and the way the clothes last, I get more for my money.

Re: Talbots - August collection is online

I have to agree with you all.  I started shopping at Talbots back in the 90s.  At the time, they had their 'Red Hanger Sale' twice a year, so it wasn't very often I got a bargain.  Seems the past few years, things go on sale pretty consistently.  Just today, I got 3 pairs of capris / skimmers at $39.50 each.  I think they are a better value than here at the Q.  I also got several T's over the past several months.  They are well made and wear like iron.  I am looking forward to seeing the items in my local store soon.  I always look forward to Fall at Talbots.

And, I have a Talbots store 10 minutes away where i can return online orders in person for free.

I am liking the zebra print too and I am not ordinarily an animal print lover.
