I just placed another Talbots order :(

[xokell2]

and it's all yasi and futures fault!

I've been eyeballing these pink pants for weeks. Then today when I saw your OOTD posts I was sold, that and the fact that they now have free shipping on any pair of pants ($8.00 shipping on a $17.00 pair of pants is crazy!)

I also signed up for the reward card (NOT the credit card) and got 10% off.

And for the record my first order keeps trickling in and these pants are amazingly comfortable and totally worth $12.50. (I got them when they were $19 and I'm still happy about it)

I wish I bought the blue when they were still available

I can't seem to stop either. Maybe I need to unsubscribe from their emails.

Are they tts?

[ybee]

You are welcome!

[house]

Talbots is awesome! I love all their pants! Ok except the high waist hollywood one but other than that I haven't found one pair that I didn't like! The only thing I found not TTS was their new cord pants. They are a little more snug fitting than their other pants around the waist.

Okay I think I'm going to buy the pink pants but WDYT of these?

[pixy0stix]

Wait, what pink pants?

[pixy0stix]

Crap, I miss a day and now I'm behind on s&b trends.

[Deleted]

Le sigh. Just bought them. I wonder how long it will take DH and MIL to notice them and comment on if they're new.

ETA: I think I now need leather leggings, a leather skirt and boyfriend jeans to wear them with. Does it ever end?

[char217]

I too cannot seem to stop! Ever since the post about the pumps they had on sale. I have now opened a credit card and probably been to the store at least three times and ordered online twice! The deals are crazy!

[house]

I have to say they do have a pretty good deal for card holders! I put two pants on hold that I will be bringing home tomorrow. LOL!

I'm kind of nervous to try and style them in the winter since they're open toe booties.

Ditzy, did you see these? These might keep your toes warmer!

Word on the streets here is that Talbots is going out of business. No idea if there's validity to this rumor, but there is a Talbots corporate office here.

Hahaha you are welcome

Talbot's has been on the brink for years. But they are not going out of business - they found a buyer and the deal was completed last week. Their new execs are from Vitamin Shoppe and Kohl's.

There's some debate as to the cause of their financial woes. I think it's because they only made corduroy jumpers and reindeer sweaters for years and more fashionable women jumped ship for AT and others. The corduroy jumper wearers say it's because they abandoned their loyal customers and started selling things that late 20s, early 30s women (as in, us) would wear that it had problems. It's a classic company and I wish it all the best finding its niche. That's part of the reason I shop there - I'm such a sucker for nostalgia (I was the original shoe poster who started all this.)

OMG I would be sooooo sad if Talbot's went out of business. It's the only place I buy my business suits, and I get tons of work separates there as well. They are the ONLY store that carries high quality plus size petite clothes. I would most likely end up getting work clothes custom made if they went out of business.

[sunshine608]

I'm another that can't stop. The one thing holding me back has been the $8.00 shipping but I broke down for those shoes.

I remember reading that they were having $$ troubles, but glad to know they aren't going out of business. I'm still mourning the loss of Casual Corner years ago. I used to get all my suits from them and they fit me great.

I haven't tried Talbots suits yet, but I have high hopes. Plus, its one of few nicer stores that is near me ( there are actually 2 locations 1 outlet and 1 regular store) which is almost unheard of where I live.

[krisim]

Ugh...I just placed another order as well. I need to stop! Atleast the store is conveniently located for returns!

[esynergy]

It looks like the S&B board will keep them in business.

love the pink pants and shoes!

[kris356]

My dad's checkbook would probably rejoice it Talbots went out of business! My mom is on a first name basis with not one but two Talbots. I had told her a couple months ago that I had read they may be going under, I think she may have been seriously depressed.

Agreed! Damn working until 9:00pm! Takes away from my board time!!

[xokell2]

Yep, thanks ditzy. I was able to add the shoes to my previous order to get the free shipping and 10% off. You all are terrible influences.

Any pair of pants in your order gets free shipping

[pixy0stix]

I still have no idea what pink pants you guys are talking about, but I ordered some green pants from Talbots. So there!

[weardogbride]

First, my SIL told me about the sale, then I saw it talked about on here and I somehow ended up in store yesterday. I bought 3 pairs of shoes, then came home, looked at their website and order 3 MORE pairs and a silk top!! I need an intervention. There's like 4 more pairs of heels that I had to stop myself from ordering. But, I spent about $160 total for SIX pairs of shoes and a top so that is pretty amazing. Their shoes are such high quality and one pair was orginally over $160 so I feel like I got a deal!

I don't know how to do multiple PIPs, but here's what I got:

And a leopard pointy toe flat that is no longer online. There's a gorgeous pair of boots online for like $50, but I'm not sure if they would fit my ginourmous calves and are final sale. Boo!
