Talbots Summer Try-On Haul For Women Over 50

Well, this is good timing! On Monday, I drove to my local Talbots to do a summer try-on haul for women over 50. Talbots is my husband’s favorite retailer, so he never grumbles when I come home with a bag full of Talbots clothing. Yesterday, Talbots announced their 4th of July Sale, and all of my picks are included.

Summer Try-On Haul For Women Over 50

I love these palm-printed chino pants. Printed pants are trending, and I’m seeing them everywhere. This pair fits great and aren’t too heavy for summer. I thought the Biscayne Blue 3/4 sleeve cardigan matched the pants perfectly, and is so soft against my skin. You can wear the cardigan completely buttoned as a shirt or layer it over a tank or tee. I’m wearing a large in the cardigan and an 8 in the pants.

A one-and-done outfit is my favorite. It reminds me of a casserole dish; one item is all you need to satisfy you. Lol! This gorgeous maxi dress is a stretchy jersey material that allows you to move about with ease. I have the pink and white LINEN GIRLFRIEND CARDIGAN which is very lightweight, and either color would look perfect with this dress. I’m wearing a large, and it fits great.

How do you like this Tennessee orange poplin dress? The blue and orange color combination is stunning, and it grabbed my attention as soon as I walked into the store. The poplin material is lightweight and shouldn’t be hot in the summer. The puff sleeves are another visual detail that is sure to make this dress a standout. I wear a size 12 in dresses from most retailers, but the size 10 fit me perfectly.

Don’t you just love a simple outfit that is striking? Oh, and did I mention that it is also made from a non-iron fabric? I left the store without this outfit, so I was thrilled to see it was included in the sale. Both of these items are now on their way to my house where I know I’ll be wearing them a lot. The non-iron perfect shirt is also available in black and white, gingham, and the orange and blue print from above.

Crocheted anything is trending this year. I even saw a pair of crocheted sneakers at Walmart. I like all the bright and summery colors of this pullover sweater. It does have holes, so you might want to add a camisole of a collared shirt under it, but I didn’t feel like you could see through it. I paired it with a pair of white cotton/spandex shorts that comes with a rope belt. They are a 6″ length, and I thought they would look great with LOTS of tops this summer.

Orange you glad I included this lively button-up shirt in my summer try-on haul for women over 50? Lol! Even though this shirt is the star of this outfit, it wasn’t what I started with. I’m in a yellow phase right now, and these daisy-yellow ankle jeans caught my eye. I love the soft shade of yellow I would probably pair them with navy or white tops. This shirt was hanging near them, so I thought I would see how they looked together. What do you think? Do you like the look, or is it a little too much?

This is another everyday look that I could see myself wearing around the house or running errands. The blue and white striped shell is lightweight and roomy, which is a perfect combination for a summer top. The top would be great to wear for the 4th of July with a pair of white or denim shorts. The shorts are longer than I normally wear at 10.5″, but I decided to try them on to see how they looked.

Speaking of the 4th of July…this outfit would be a smashing success. I love the navy sweater with the white stars, and the red trim at the neck is a nice touch. The sweater also has a nautical vibe, so you aren’t confined to wearing it only on the 4th, Memorial Day, or Labor Day. I paired it with these white linen pants, and I love the way the pants look and feel. The pants look dressy and polished, so you could wear them dressed up or down.

I’m sure glad that my husband loves Talbots because I see a huge box arriving at my house early next week. Heehee!
