These also come in here indigo or black for a more stylish look.

This is good butt blouse It has gathers on the shoulders and a small neck and sleeve ruffled cuff. As I write this description it sounds girly (to me), but the details are subtle and don’t come off that way. It pops over your head and I just tucked it in because the pants are wider at the hem. With a slender leg, she would look great uncompressed. It comes in 3 colors. The body part is lined which is a nice detail.

Here is the same ruffled blouse in sunshine and ivory. I wear it with front pleated Bristol trousers. have these pants An elastic back waistband that makes it really comfortable.

These Portland pants my personal favorite but this size seems too long to me so they look wrinkled. A rider-like slim trousers with a side waist zipper, available in five different colours. They have 9% elastane that absorbs everything and prevents them from bagging. I wear them clearly 100% cotton poplin striped button-down shirt. This comes in three colors in all Talbot sizes. I tied the shirt so you can see the trousers, but the hem looks great with a light hem.

this shirt It’s two sizes too big for me so it’s hard to get a good idea of ​​the fit. It’s a great layering piece on its own if you’re comfortable showing off under jacket cardigans or even your upper arms. I wanted to show how the ratio changes when it is inserted over the waistband and loosened. It has a small neck ruffle and a placket in the front so it goes over her head.

here i exploded this V-neck sweater On the blouse… that’s what I actually needed for the cooler spring we’ve had. This sweater is also available in ivory with black details. It’s a soft cotton blend that hits right at the hip, so it goes well with these wider trousers.

I would choose a slimmer pant to pair with this linen popover shirt. This 100% linen shirt Comes in five beautiful spring colors with a strip of buttons to hold the handles. It couldn’t be easier to wear in the hot weather ahead, it has become a favorite of customers every year.

This short trench coat is a great little coat for spring. It is a cotton blend with spandex for comfort. It comes in this gorgeous blue plus pear yellow colour. It has a comfortable fit and is fully lined. Plain white jeans are incomplete and curvy cut which makes them too loose and too long. I have these jeans in the right size and I love them!

These are customer favorite Chatham ankle pants that come in five colors. plus size here. What do you see about the ratio?

Here this cute little spring trench coat looks buttoned up. I forgot to take a photo of the back, but as you’ll see on the website, it has a fun back pleat for easy use, which makes it super comfortable. I also love the raglan sleeves. This sticky comes in a blue or a sunny yellow color.
