A CLASSIC STYLE FOR TODAY’S MODERN WOMAN
This post is sponsored by Appleseeds, and I will receive compensation, but the opinions expressed are my own.
I resolved for 2021 to try new retailers, so when Appleseeds reached out to me, I was eager to give them a try. It is funny that today’s “new” retailer is actually turning 75 years old! I am thrilled to introduce you to this new/old retailer, and I can’t wait to hear what you think about this outfit.
You don’t endure that long as an apparel retailer without having quality clothing that women love. Appleseeds has branched out from one store in Massachusetts to a thriving e-commerce business. They blend timeless tailoring with modern fabrics to deliver classic styles that are perfect for today’s modern woman.
This Anchors Aweigh V-Neck Sweater is exactly what I need for spring weather. I love the anchor motif, and it makes me think of sailing with a warm breeze and calm blue waters. The bright white anchors pop off of the deep navy background and look perfect with my white pants. The v-neck, cuffs, and hemline are all finished with ribbed trim, and the sweater has small side slits for ease of movement.
When this sweater arrived, I was immediately impressed with the quality of the sweater. I thought for a minute that the sweater was reversible since it is double layered. This is a wonderful example of the quality of the sweater. Since I wasn’t sure of the sizing, I ordered a large in the sweater. I would rather something be a little big on me, as too small. I probably could have worn a medium, but I like the larger size since I will also be able to wear a button-up shirt under it if I choose to.
I love the look of the Dennisport stretch twill pants. Twill pants are trending, and so are straight-leg pants, so these are a win, win in my book. This is an updated version of the classic twill pants, and I only have good things to say about them.
I wasn’t sure about sizing, so I ordered a size 8 and a size 10 to be sure that I would get one to fit. The 10 ended up fitting me perfectly, and I think that the 30″ inseam is perfect to wear with my summer flats. These have a zip fly and sit at your natural waist for a comfortable fit.
The pants come in several colors, including a beautiful buttercup yellow pair that is high on my radar.
You know that I have been trying to wear more flats lately, so these Bandolino navy flats were the perfect choice for this outfit. The shoes are crafted of leather, suede, or gorgeous patterned fabrics (there are lots of choices in this flat), and they feature a 1/2 heel. I know that you ladies who love low heels will love this shoe.
This stylish pair of flats will look great with jeans, dresses, skirts, shorts, and cropped pants. They are very versatile and a classic design that won’t go out of style any time soon. I am wearing my usual size 9, and these fit me great.

This outfit is so cute. I’ve been getting Appleseed’s catalog for years. Their products are really nice but limited in sizing. Being plus size does not allow for getting most things. Forgive me Tania but your early comments sound like they were written by Appleseed’s for a commercial.. Luv your blogs.
I’ve just started seeing some advertising for Appleseeds and wondered about them …Outfit is a winner – great choice…..
I love Appleseeds, their clothes are classic and good quality. Not at all dowdy in my opinion.
I’ve never heard of that company but love the outfit today.
I have never heard of them. Thank you for introducing me to something new. Love the outfit.
Appleseed’s quality clothing is generously cut, I would suggest going down a size (medium) for tops so that the shoulder seams fall properly. As I mentioned in a previous comment (2/23) and several readers have also noted, their clothing looks rather stoic (dowdy) in their catalog (or website), but when styled and presented in a modern way, it can be very attractive as you have shown here!.
PS Medium (2-2 1/2″) platform wedges are a great alternative to flats. They have the advantage of “no heel”, but still provide the slimming effect of added height.
Never heard of them before, I will have to check them out!
Navy and white is such a classic, spring look
Wow,I would be excited to see those yellow pants you talked about! Again, you look fabulous lady! And, last but not least, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JOE!
I’ve never heard of this new/old business but I will definitely be checking it out! Thanks for highlighting businesses that are the “usual” places we shop!
