When did Ann Taylor get so hip?

Today I took a trip to Schoenhof's in Harvard Square to pick up a French book I probably should have bought 3 months ago when I got the syllabus. Since the train ride there was an hour and buying the book took all of a minute (I called ahead and put it in hold. Sometimes I have good ideas.) I decided to take advantage of the 65 degree weather and poke around a little bit before going back into the city. So I poked. And I poked. Then I found Ann Taylor and the poking stopped and the coveting began. If you're looking for luxurious, relatively reasonably priced apparel and accessories for the women in your life (and I know you are at this time of year!) you should definitely check out their store. The website won't let me copy their pictures so I'm just going to link you guys to some of my favorites:

This sweater on sale for $29.50 reduced from $75!

This tweed mini that will make your legs go on for miles

This pretty top with a really nice detail on the neckline

These kind of pricey cashmere lounge pants that I would probably wear a little lower on my hips to avoid looking like I have the hoof of a certain desert mammal...

And all of the jewelry on this page (too bad they don't have the ring I tried on at the store today. Maybe I'll buy it and feature it in a future post)
