with…wait for it…Loft! Wait! Wait!! Don’t run away scared! Let’s start at the beginning. Back in my corporate days I loved Loft. Cheaper than Ann Taylor, but great quality and did I mention CHEAP! They ALWAYS have some kind of offer going on – so once we are done here remember to sign up for their newsletters.
I popped in yesterday – why I have no idea as I had the kids with me…but I saw this in the window and it drew me in like a magnet. The skirt is a beautiful cream with a hint of pink in the tulle – but what I really love is the grey stretchy, jersey lining that makes it not only super comfy but also incredibly easy to dress down with a t-shirt for a super cool party look.
Here’s what I’ve ordered to wear with it. Two fabulous t-shirts – in my opinion as nice as J.Crew but CHEAPER! What’s not to love?
And of course I couldn’t check out without at least trying these – the sweatshirt for layering and the shoes for that finishing touch. They’d also both look perfect with jeans.
It’s funny how popping in those stores that you’d long ago dismissed can be quite the revelation! Take a peek – I dare you not to find something you love in Loft!
Oh and the best bit? Right now using code ENJOY you can get 40% off all your cart:)
(p.s. this is NOT a sponsored post – I genuinely adored what I saw!)
Very JSP – I love it! I saw very similar yesterday in Miss Selfridge which I am literally writing a blog post about!
Oooh I look forward to reading it – I’d love a longer tulle skirt too:) xx
Ann Taylor and Loft are among my favorite pieces to thrift as they always fit well and are in excellent condition. This skirt is such fun and love the tops. If I wasn’t on a no buy November, I would so buy that sweatshirt….
I feel bad for being so dismissive of them now – my eyes have been opened! xx
Unfortunately, Loft or Ann Taylor are not available here, but I got several pieces when I was in Canada this summer, and liked many more! Their petite collection is a great fit on me (unlike Boden’s petite, for example, which is just wrong), and their colours and styles are quirky and fun without being cheap or tacky. The prices are nice too 😉
Do they not ship there Marta – I just saw they have a partnership for international shipping to lots of countries! They really have turned things around at Loft and have some lovely feminine, quirky pieces – I was really blown away. xx
I love this skirt but the code won’t work, is it because I’m in the UK?
Oh no! It must be so sorry – it must just be a Thanksgiving code for here! It’s good to know they ship to the UK though – try signing up for the newsletter – they often send a discount code for signing up!
I have just discovered your excellent blog and it’s a fantastic read! I have the same two Boden leather jackets as you do – the tan biker and the black leather blazer and adore them too.
Aww thanks Jo!! I really appreciate your lovely comment! I was just thinking that I haven’t worn any of my leather jackets recently – it’s gone from warm to freezing here so quickly! x
Happy Thanksgiving to you all xxx
Thanks Liz – we’ve had an amazing week!
Never heard of it over the pond, but I am loving that skirt. Very SJP in Sex & The City! x
