Whom You Know is Pleased to Kick Off Our Coverage of Talbots

It is a rainy, gray day in Manhattan.  It better not be like this on St. Patrick's Day is all we have to say!  A day like today and a weekend like the one forecasted ahead is absolutely perfect for spending quality time with your closet and getting ready for Spring!  We have spent time today looking at Talbot's new looks and you need to know this is not your grandmother's Talbots.   We liked the old Talbots and Peachy Deegan's grandmother, shown at the right, did shop there but she'd like it even more today.  


Talbots, the brand that has been dressing women since 1947 has changed. The devoted Talbots customer will find that they are no longer about ordinary basics, but truly extraordinary classics.   The new Talbots client will quickly discover that Talbots has evolved.  She will find a spring tweed shift dress, a smart white shirt, a sophisticated satin trench coat –- legacy items re-imagined in new ways. Talbots celebrates its heritage by putting a modern twist on the traditional. With a diverse size offering (0 – 22 and petites) and a truly democratic fit, Talbots also believes in “Every Woman. Every Size.”  We are especially excited about the Petites!

Talbots even makes candles!  They are high quality and will provide a lovely atmosphere while you peruse their catalog!   Talbots is honored to introduce its second collection of candles in partnership with famed florist, Belle Fleur, a brand whose poetic sensibility and love of texture and color bring beautiful candles and flowers to light.  This Spring, Talbots will launch three different scents:  "Blossom" is composed with notes Violet Flower, Heliotrope, Linden Blossom, and English Ivy; "Escape" is scented with Bergamot, Hyacinth, Patchouli and Rhubarb; and "Shine" gives of hints of Cyclamen, Mimosa, Citron and Amber.  Candles are available both in stores and online and retail for $24.
