Default Squee - Ann Taylor sale

So, today I waited in line for hours to get a new iphone. During part of the wait, I ducked into Ann Taylor and ALL the cute things I liked last month were HUGELY discounted.

I got this adorable navy and orange skirt (I already have a navy blue sweater and I decided the orange cami was just too matchy matchy - and not on sale) and this (which will go swimmingly with a dark brown sweater I have.

I kind of wish I had a pale pink sweater to go with the second skirt, but all in all - shopping VICTORY! The navy skirt is really really cute, I wanted it so bad earlier but I told myself NO MORE ANN TAYLOR unless there is a REALLY GOOD SALE. The skirt has cut outs in the fabric right above the knee - it's so flirty!

I still love this but have no idea what to wear it with, so I practiced SOME restraint.

All of those skirts are way cute! You will look fab in them!

I wish I could make it to Ann Taylor this weekend but sadly I don't think it's going to happen. The weekends just go by so quickly. They had some really cute shirts/sweaters the last time I was in there that I'd love to buy if they were on sale.

Oh! Oh!

I keep meaning to go there and look at their stuff (I've never been). I remember long ago one article said Ann Taylor's pants were good for women with larger derrieres (that's me!).....is it true?!?!

I still want to lose more weight, but I would bet I'm close to what size I'll wear.

Thanks for the tip!

If you shop online, coupon code SUMMER25 will get you 25% off sale merchandise at Ann Taylor . com until July 13.

I'm going to order the skirt, I love it! Glory, it's a darned good thing we don't live or work near each other!

Barbara! Shop online and use that handy code, the shipping should be a wash! (unless you spend more than 150, which is EASY to do and then the shipping is free!). Twynn, not sure about Ann Taylor and the heinie, I always thought that Liz Claiborne was a good fit when I was curvier. Mel! Ha, we would have to text each other EVERYDAY before work!

I like the orange top in that outfit, but I love the orange shoes with it even more.

I also love that second skirt, especially with those gold sandals.

Hmm, I seem to have a shoe obsession
