Everyone always talks about the fashion inspiration of Paris in the springtime but according to Ann Taylor’s Lisa Axelson, Paris in the fall is just what our wardrobe needs. For Fall 2012 the Ann Taylor collection, we see lots of black & white prints and touches of color, classic silhouettes and inspirations from the 1960’s and the most romantic city in the world. My favorite prints from the fall collection are the revised white leopard and the Dalmatian prints available in shirts, jeans, chic sheath dresses, pencil skirts, shoes and chic accessories
Ann Taylor truly brings out the fresh and youthful aspect of their collection by pairing some of the bold colors with the above statement prints without losing any of the refined sophistication that is signature to the brand
The collection featured so many favorite pieces, so what are my standouts besides everything in the Dalmatian and White Leopard prints? I’m in love with the uber-fab cape with leather piping, the incredibly sweet bow scarf and the very sexy chantilly lace bustier
Some pieces, like the pencil skirts, begin hitting stores in August with the majority of the collection becoming available in September and October. What do you think of the collection?
