The only reason I would ever step inside of an Ann Taylor is if my girlfriend REALLY needed to shop there. And guesssssssss what? It happened. (Crap.)
In a hurry to buy some business clothes, my girlfriend and I perused Ann Tayor's racks of clothing looking for several outfits that were professional, yet chic. I'm not sure what that exactly means, but I'm guessing it is similar to Olive Pope's wardrobe in Scandal. That might be difficult to conceptualize, though, since half of the episodes consist of her half naked while hooking up with the president. (BURNNNNN.)
Anyways, I'm not telling the total truth. My experience there was more like my girlfriend tried on different clothes and asked for my opinion on each different outfit, while I chilled in a nice comfy chair. Nonetheless, I can make some observations about this store:
-Most of their clothes are either neutral colors (various hues of whites, blacks, and gray) or earth tones (e.g. olive, light blue, and tan).
-Pants fall into the $50-$120 range and shirts generally start around $25-ish.
-It's not a huge space, so there's usually only one or two staff members there.
-It has that Apple store feel, where everything is bright, clean, and organized.
If you're a fella and have to wait there with ya lady while she shops, don't worry. It's not too painful. read more
