Saturday Weekend Style in Ann Taylor and NYDJ
My weekend style is pretty simple – solid or striped knit top with jeans. When it's cold those jeans are covered with tall boots, when it's warmer the flats come out. On this sunny weekend day, I decided to pair my jeans with coral… the color and the shape!

Outfit Details: Coral-colored ponte knit top with zipper detail: Ann Taylor | Jeans: NYDJ | White “Cameron” coral pendant necklace: Stella & Dot | Gold flats: ECCO | Sunglasses: Ray-Ban

This top was a final sale from Ann Taylor. I fell for the bright coral color and the zipper detail on the sides. the ponte knit is good for early spring and looks more elevated than a traditional t-shirt. I plan to pair it with my gray ponte pants to wear to the office.

The gold flats are from ECCO: the leather is very soft and the insole padded. These glam up a basic look while still being really comfortable.

The necklace is the “Cameron” pendant from Stella & Dot and a favorite. It's the perfect length and amount of interest that I find it goes with pretty much everything!

The jeans are the “Hayden” fro NYDJ in petite and fit great. They didn't bag out during the day. I recommend going down a size; NYDJ runs roomy.
ย I was so glad for the sunshine and warmth on this day. While I didn't have big plans, even running errands was more joyful with good weather. March is very inconsistent weather here in the D.C. area; I treasure beautiful spring days like today!



I think you look cute! =)
I so wish I could pull off aviators. You look ready for Spring here lady. I know y’all had snow today, but at least you had a few days of sun. I love those shoes, the gold color is nice.
You look lovely as always, but what really caught my eye was that GREEN GRASS…man on man, we’ve still got two feet of snow! It’s been a tough, snow filled, long winter here on the Canadian Prairies!
What a huge bummer about your shirt not arriving in “brand new” quality! And the fact that it isn’t quite what you’d hoped? Boo. ๐ On the flip side, your hair looks great in these pictures!!!

I too am on the hunt for a good new skinny jean that works on petites — and these look great! Would you say the sizing runs true? I don’t even really know my size anymore! Also, do you know if these are available in any stores? thanks!
NYDJs are sold at most major department stores. They run big, go down a size (I am wearing 10s in this picture). Each style and fabric runs a bit differently but those with the more traditional denim feel seem to be best down one size.
thanks!
Ugh, I would hate to smell that on a new blouse! The color looks good on you though and the flats are super cute!
Thank you! Yeah, I realized final sale, went to the store they sort of told me tough noogies so I washed it. Not cool, I worked for years in retail and would never let such a thing happen.
Tough noogies? Well, tough noogies for THEM, there’s this nifty thing called the internet that puts a lot more control into customers’ hands than we used to have…
I know you were on the fence about this hair cut, but I think it’s looking great!
Thanks! Did a bit of hacking myself and figured out how to style it pretty successfully. Now just need to go to my stylist to clean it up! ๐
Oh Ali…..final sale on a top that is not new? Of course it is new…but in poor condition. Obviously someone wore it, returned and there was no quality control. I would push the issue and tell them that a final sale should not apply to a used item (if it smells and has hair its used!)and that if you order a new item thats what you should get!
Agreed, got some flack from the store and they pretty much told me too bad, so I thought… well I’ll take it to the blogosphere! ๐
I was just thinking how good that top looks on you! Yes, it’s structured, but in a good way I think and the colour is great. Maybe wear a singlet under it to protect your tum?
Also, I am SO jealous of that sunshine. It’s freakin’ freeeezing in England a the mo.
So funny, Saturday was glorious and today it’s cold and snowing. Crazy weather!!
eBay the top? Or take it in at the sides – put it on inside out and pin it at the sides, take it off and it will only need a few stitches either side to give it a bit of shape. The zipper problem can be fixed by sewing (or ironing on with bonding tape if you don’t actually need the zippers to function) a fabric placket inside the zips. It’s a great colour on you.
