I'm Telling My Friends to Get In on This Mall Brand's Essentials

If you were to list some of the top staple stores in the country, Ann Taylor would undoubtedly come up. That’s right: The brand that’s located in most major malls is known for stocking those go-to essentials to fill out your work wardrobe, along with offering a variety of forward, on-trend pieces to round out your everyday casual rotation as well. In fact, after breezing through the store recently with a friend, I realized that I’m actually going to start recommending the line to my inner circle on the reg for those polished yet cool finds that won’t totally break the bank. (PS: Ann Taylor often has readily available discount codes of up to 40% off.) To get a sense of the pieces I’m feeling at the moment, I rounded up 20 items worth checking out. You won’t be disappointed.
