Talbots Try On With Different Body Types
The other day, I ran into Talbots for a quick try on session. My assistant, Megan, came with me, and we thought it would be fun if she tried on some of the same outfits as me. I’m 5’6″ tall and wear a medium or a size 8. Megan is 5’10” and wears an XL or a size 14. So, here is a Talbots try on with different body types.
Talbots Friends and Family Sale is still going on, but only for a little bit more. You can get ONE item at 40% off and the rest of your purchase for 30% off. Use the code WINTER to see the discounted price once it has been added to your cart.

This quilted puffer sweater jacket was the first thing that caught my eye as I walked into the store. I love the quilted material and design, as well as the mixed media with the sweater sleeves.
You can see the design extend around to the back. I wore these jeans to the store. I bought them earlier this year, and they are one of my favorite pair of jeans. Both items run true to size.
Megan looked great in this camel striped half-zip sweater and bootcut jeans. Of all the outfits she tried, this one was her favorite. She said she would wear this all the time since it is an elevated casual look.
The sweater has a lot of visual interest because of the stripes, different textured fabric, and raised pattern. I love a half-zip sweater, and so does Megan. She said everything fit her true to size.
She then tried on this Fairisle sweater in gorgeous shades of brown. They didn’t have my size in the sweater, so I ordered it online because it is sooo pretty in person.
I fell in love with this black velvet button-front shirt. During the holidays, I like having items that look festive without being too fancy. Velvet is sooo luxurious feeling and look, and it is great to wear for winter celebrations.
I would wear this to a friend’s casual Christmas party. Adding fun, sparkly jewelry or shoes can make the outfit fancier.
I loved this outfit on Megan! She looks fabulous in this color green, and I told her it needed to go home with her.
The floral cashmere sweater perfectly coordinates with the wool blend coat. I love the different shades of green with the pop of turquoise.
She kept the floral cashmere sweater on and switched the bootcut jeans for white jeggings. Look how the white pants bring out the white in the sweater. Megan said she sized up in the jeggings since they have a slimmer fit.
The sweater fits her great. You can tell by the look on her face that she loved it too.
I tried on the same outfit. Honestly, I think the sweater looked better on her than on me. I’m wearing a medium, which seemed too tight, but the large was huge on me.
This Fair Isle sweater has the same colors as the cashmere sweater but in a different pattern. I like Johnny Collar shirts and sweaters, but this one is too large. They didn’t have my size, but I wanted to try it on anyway.
Once again, Megan looked better in the sweater than I did. It fit her perfectly, and notice how great it looked with the white jeggings.
Let me know if you enjoyed seeing Megan in my post. I think she did a great job for someone so nervous. Lol!

How fun to see both of you in the same outfits!! It’s so interesting to see how things look on different people.
Fabulous post! I love seeing the items on both of you. And isn’t Megan adorable?! It was pretty obvious to me what she loved and what she thought was acceptable. I hope she made some purchases for herself. Fun!
She IS adorable. I’m glad you enjoyed the post!
Both lovely in your outfits! I love the velvet shirt and the Kelly green coat. I’m actually headed to Talbots tomorrow . I’ll have to check my store for some of the shown pieces.
Tania, Thank you for sharing some of the pieces in two different sizes! Megan did a great job and she has a beautiful smile. I really liked the johnny collared top on you and the green jacket & floral top on Megan. I agree with you regarding how a couple of the tops looked better on Megan.
I’m loving how much everyone is loving Megan! Agreed – she rocked a bunch of items!
LOved Megan in the fair isle sweater and green coat outfit. Don’t think the horizontal stripes do her justice. She must have liked herself in the green also because the smile on her face was contagious
More Megan please. Love to see how the same items fit different body types. Megan you are beautiful, I hope the green coat was in your budget!
I love that you’re loving Megan! I agree; she looks amazing.

yes, It helped me to see a larger tnperson in same style as you, because you Tania, are so petite & cute. That doesn’t describe me at all! Also, thanks for the tip about white pants in winter, don’t want to get locked up!
I would like to see Megan in more posts, especially Chicos. She’s more size. She did a great job!!!!
