Ann Taylor Spring Sale Finds

Ann Taylor is running a 30% off sitewide sale now through 3/10, and full-price pants are priced at $59.90 (that’s 50% off for certain pant styles!).

After a dreary winter of black and greys, this bright puff sleeve blouse immediately caught my eye in their spring preview. I ordered right when petites popped online, and will be packing it for spring break next week! I also ordered and would highly recommend my staple Audrey pants in their new crop length (I sized up; the crop runs smaller for me than the full length), and these sailor pants that have great reviews.

I also partnered on an IG project with Ann Taylor recently and got to try on some of their other spring pieces! While I don’t have much opportunity to dress in corporate style anymore, I included some quick reviews + measurements info below on looks I picked out.

Floral Puff Sleeve Blouse

Love the pattern and shape of this! I want to emphasize that its a very strong shouldered puff sleeve blouse, which I personally enjoy but not everyone is a fan of. I can easily see this as vacation / resort wear too paired with some linen shorts or a bright skirt. The quality is great in a lightweight cotton blend, with a 100% cotton lining and tiny pearlized buttons.

There is a hidden ruffle inside the puff shoulder to give it puff structure, so if you love the blouse otherwise, you could trim or sew down the ruffle. I personally feel the structure gives it more of a high end feel and looks very chic paired with slim fit bottoms.

Sailor Style Pants

I haven’t had a chance to take pics in these pants yet, but they might be one of Ann Taylor’s best trousers in a while! I hesitated to order since they looked super wide in the model pic, but after reading through all the good reviews I was convinced to give them a try. I have to echo reviewers that the fit and fabric is quite nice, and they look very flattering and elongating just with a simple tank or bodysuit tee like this EP favorite Amazon one.

Twill doesn’t sound like the most appealing fabric for pants, but these have some fluidity and are medium weight, not too thick. The waist actually fits me well compared to other Ann Taylor bottoms, but FYI for shorter petites, I need to wear this length with high heels. Size 00 Petite measures 12.5″ across the waist, 10″ rise and 29″ in length.

Chain Mule sandals

These are fabulous designer-inspired block-heel slides that are actually comfortable, secure and stable feeling on the feet. I featured these a few times on IG stories and my LTK account (since both are much quicker to post on) and hope some of you were able to grab them while stocked! I went TTS with a size 5.

Audrey Crop Pant

So glad they came out with this classic pant in a new crop length, since I always had to fold the original ones shorter! Note, the crop style seems to run smaller than the full length. I sized up to a 0P in the crops, and they measure the same everywhere except for length as my 00P full length pair. The Audrey crops in size 0 Petite measure: 12.5″ across the waist, 10″ rise, and 24″ inseam. Love the medium weight smooth, stretch fabric and slim fit legs on these.

From their spring suiting arrivals, this shorter, trench-inspired jacket paired with trousers is elongating and modern, and the jacket can easily be paired with other pants and jeans. The fabric is a lighter weight woven fabric with a little texture, and feels ok in my opinion – more professional than that of AF Sloane pants, but would be amazing if AT made it in their fluid crepe suiting material!

The jacket and pants both seem true to size for Ann Taylor’s typical standards. While the jacket fits me, the pants are a little big at the waist and long on me and I need to wear with high heels. The pants in 00 Petite measure 13.25″ across the waist, 10″ rise, with 29″ inseam.

For my IG video I also chose these knit sweater coordinates in a pretty blue, one of the more universally flattering colors. This textured sweater jacket fits TTS and is a medium/thicker weight, and these sweater shells are good elevated staples that I’ve bought in a few different colors over the years.
