My favorites in the Talbots New Arrivals
Happy Monday, all! Come join me for coffee as we discuss my favorites in Talbots New Arrivals.
Before we dive into my favorites in Talbots New Arrivals, allow me to stress why we look at fall fashions now.
Well, the first reason is because that is the fashion industry…always discussing the next season forward while another season is happening.
The reason I am beginning to show you fall outfits is because some of these items will sell out quickly.
They simply are not making as many as they did years ago…and, just like in a recent popular sale, they go fast.
So, I know it is hot…believe me…it is in the triple digits where I am, but it is worth our time to look over the Talbots New Arrivals and think fall now.
MY FAVORITES IN TALBOTS NEW ARRIVALS: FEATURE OUTFIT
The wonderful ladies at Talbots asked if they could send me an outfit from the Talbots New Arrivals, and I was thrilled to receive this look.
Let’s discuss the jacket first.
This is the CHORE JACKET in Sierra Brown….and it is crafted by a soft, comfortable, light Tencel Lyocell fabric.
Chore jackets have also been called barn jackets or utility jackets. They actually originated with French workwear and were known to be durable and practical.
Also, they all seem to have two large pockets at the hemline in the front.
I like this one because it is not the typical heavy fabrics of the barn jackets I own and it is also made to fit better than the original boxy style.
You will see it is gathered in the back. The lighter fabric makes it perfect for early fall.
Talbots new arrivals also feature two more chore jackets.
This one is the STUDIO CHORE JACKET which comes in two colors and is designed in a stretch twill for a more flattering fit.
And the next one is in denim.
This is the STUDIO CHORE JACKET – BROOKLYN WASH.
These last two are shorter lengths. Typically chore jackets are mid-length jackets, but the Talbots New Arrivals offer us different options in the design.
Now, back to my outfit.
These pants are amazing….I love the fit and the polished appearance.
These are the TALBOTS CHATHAM SLIM ANKLE PANTS in bold cheetah…and I will wear them often this year.
I will show you when I style them differently.
Underneath the jacket, I am wearing a Talbots tee from last year that had a gold metallic trim on a v-neck….thus I put gold shoes with it.
MY FAVORITES IN TALBOTS NEW ARRIVALS – OTHER FAVES
I ordered this tank the minute I saw it in Talbots new arrivals…first know that I needed a new off-white tank.
This is the AIRKNIT STRETCH V-NECK TANK in ivory…and I love this material and was already familiar with it in other pieces.
It has the style and design I was looking for in a layering piece. I am super excited for it to arrive.
This one is on a wish list and I think would look great under a denim jacket…I like the ruffle for a touch of creativity.
This color is the sierra brown, and it comes in four total colors.
This is the RUFFLE SOFT SHELL, and another great layering piece going into fall.
I had my eye on this top as soon as the Talbots New Arrivals were released.
The design is so chic and attractive.
This is the DENIM POPOVER SHIRT in light ecru.
I think I own four of these long sleeve tee shirts and I think they are excellent.
I am excited to find this warmer pink in the Talbots New Arrivals, now that I know I am a spring…the color is called Bright Rose and I hope to see it soon in store.
This is the SOLID BATEAU NECK TEE PIMA COTTON...and there are other colors…and probably will be more colors soon.
I think this cardigan is so lovely, I wanted to call it out in my favorites in case some of you love this color.
It looks great styled here with the striped tee.
This is the EMBROIDERED V-NECK CARDIGAN...and like I said…it is selling fast.
Those are my top favorites in the Talbots new arrivals…and you can see them all by clicking the link in this sentence.
I am excited about what I have from the Talbots new arrivals and will eagerly wait the season to change so I can wear them.
Thanks for being here…hope to see you tomorrow…until then….
KEEP SMILING!!

For all your shopping, please use the links on my SHOPPING PAGE…thank you, thank you to all who shop this way and show support for this blog.

I love those shorter chore jackets. It’s kind of like a classic denim jacket and a classic barn jacket had a baby, in the best way. I have a lot of jackets, so we will see. And I’m happy to find leopard still having its run. I second you re those long sleeve tees. They wear and wash like iron, are thick enough to stand on their own, but a sweater or jacket fits over them easily. Good choices!
Thanks Linda! You are right about the new baby here…a great design on jackets.
Ooh, YES, that last cardigan is 😍 beautiful. IDK if the striped piece underneath is the same, but looks like the tank I have from them which was made to pair with the striped skirt. Tempting, tempting!
I noticed a very fashionable older lady out to dinner one table away last night who was wearing a chic jacket that was in that creamy white color and appeared to be of a more flexible fabric than a standard jean jacket…maybe this chore jacket. 🤷♀️ In any case, she looked fantastic, and this was a somewhat dressy steakhouse. Happy Monday! 🌟
I am always watching and admiring other women. The fabric of the chore jacket I am wearing is so soft and lovely…perfect early fall piece. Lots of people are buying the cardigan…it is a beauty. Thanks Connie.
Your feature outfit looks stunning on you, and the individual pieces will mix well. One observation: I find it confusing when links and descriptions sometimes appear above the apparel and sometimes below. Maybe it’s an age related (78) thing 😉
Pam, these pants are best looking and most flattering pants I’ve seen on you…tall and slim…good choice to keep them.
Hi Diane, I had not thought about it, but typically I write about what is in the picture underneath the picture. I will do my best to stay consistent with it, but I am not aware of going back and forth often. Thanks so much.
Like I said…I love these pants. The minute I put them on I was smitten. Thanks Karen.
That blue embroidered cardigan is gorgeous and I found a top and pants in Gorgeous Garden, a lovely medium dark garden print. The top however is 100% cotton and the pants are a different synthetic fabric. I wondered if the two could be worn as a set. If you see them in person, could tell me if that is possible. They are not displaying them together at all. Because I’m petite, I like to wear sets. Prints are a huge stretch for me. I normally like a neutral column of color in plain fabric. It is also a stretch financially for me to buy both.
Maybe someone else here could look as well, Sydney. They might get into the store faster than me. Like the way you are thinking.
Did you notice that the photo of the lovely cardigan shows the bottom two buttons undone? Very pretty. I own at least a dozen of the pima cotton tops (some crew necked) that I’ve collected over the years. I prefer the sturdier cotton: you can’t really tell fabric weight unless someone mentions it in a review OR if the description says ‘lightweight.’
I did not notice…thanks for pointing it out and I bet we see those buttons undone in many places. Thanks Maeve.
Oh, you look great. Last spring I bought on deep Talbot discount a lightweight coat the same color and similar fabric. It is to my knee. I can’t wait to wear it this fall. I love an ‘overcoat’. How I enjoy seeing the autumn colors come in. You may be spring, but we have many crossover colors. Odd that they call a jean jacket look a ‘chore’ jacket. I can’t seem to handle that style. I buy them and donate them. The first time that I heard of chore jackets was when I followed Bill Cunningham, the NYC cyclist fashion photographer. His was blue. I bought a simple lime green one 15 years ago and it is still going strong.
Lots of leopard! It looks great with the brown. Like SydneyH, I am interested in the Green Garden outfit look, and I don’t usually do prints either. I loved a print pant suit that Stacy London did for QVC last fall. It looked very Versace. The Talbots’ suit intrigues me, but I would have to see if it is truly ivory and what that green really reads as. I would also change the buttons to deep green. I am big on tweaking. Thank you for this post. Talbots sent you a wonderful outfit.
I agree those pants look great on you. I look forward to seeing the different ways you style them. I haven’t ever tried the Chatham pants but now I am interested after seeing how good they look on you. The “chore” jacket too. I like the simple lines of the jacket & the lack of chest pockets on the one you are wearing plus its a great color. I am also interested in a couple of the ivory pieces if they are warm enough when I see the in person, especially the denim shirt. I really like the gold buttons and brown stitching. I just wish they didn’t put the models into poses that obscure the lines and fit of the clothing. I hope you’ll model the air-knit tank for us when you receive it. I’m not familiar with the fabric but it looks to be more substantial than a tshirt weight knit.
I remember the Stacy outfit…I was taken with it as well! I do have two barn jackets and enjoy wearing them.
I am excited about the tank and promise to style it quickly! I was also unfamiliar with the Chatham pants…. But now I want them in another color.
I am not normally a Talbot’s fan, but there are some great pieces here, and according to their website it’s 25% off today. That is very tempting, as I love the ruffle shell in the brown shown or also the green, and that embroidered cardigan is something I would wear often. Thanks for keeping us abreast of store offerings, especially when it’s too hot to shop in person. I know it may seem early for fall clothes shopping, but if we don’t get them when they first drop they will be out of stock by the time we can wear them.
Thank you! That is my point today and yes, there are some great choices in the new arrivals. I have a wish list!
Pam, You look fabulous in that outfit. I’m definitely going to try on the pants, and jacket. Talbot’s is showing the pants with a white/maybe off white top that I liked a lot, too. I really enjoyed this post!
Thank you, Nancy! So glad you enjoyed it!
This is a stunning outfit Pam! Wish I could wear warm colors.
To Sydney – I was in Talbots a few days ago and one of the associates was actually trying on the two piece Garden print you asked about. She first paired the top with solid navy slacks and then tried on the two printed pieces together. None of us were fond of the two pieces together. It wasn’t because of the different fabrics but because the overall look was too busy. The associate trying on was a petite at 5’3 and of average weight. If you look at what Talbots suggested you wear with each piece they never showed the two pieces worn together. Just scroll down past the description of the piece to the “how to wear it” for suggestions on what to pair with each one. As far as the expense – now it’s 25% off but I’ve heard 40% off one item is coming this weekend. Hope this helps you. If you have any other questions about it just ask because I’ll be back at Talbots later in the week and can check for you.
You are the best, Sonja. Thanks for the help for Sydney and others!
