The holidays are fast approaching and with them, the search is on for holiday outfits. Holiday Parties, family gatherings…maybe there is a winter wedding to attend. Allow us to help you narrow your search for the perfect dressy holiday attire. Talbots is a great place to start. With such a wide selection of petite styles, I am sure to find something appropriate for any party or event that comes my way this winter. So today, Beth and I are sharing Holidays with Talbots from Paris with Love.
Today, Beth and Kelly are sharing outfits from Holidays with Talbots
Both outfits and similars are shoppable via text- and image-widgets
And make sure to scroll to the end of the post because we've pulled together our first gift guides of the season!
During our trip to Paris, Beth and I popped by Place Vendôme in our holiday best to inspire you to go bold this holiday season with gorgeous red separates from Talbots. We are showing you a red and white color palette – each done slightly different.
Beth's Outfit: Taffeta Pleated Skirt | Poplin Shirt French Cuff | Suede Clutch | Evelyn Buckle Suede Mules Kelly's Outfit: Slim Ankle Pants Floral Lace | Poplin Shirt French Cuff | Suede Clutch | Isa Buckle Suede Pumps
Beth is wearing the Taffeta Pleated Skirt from the Talbots 75-Year Anniversary Collection. I am wearing the Slim Ankle Pants Floral Lace, also from the Talbots 75-Year Anniversary Collection. We are both wearing the Poplin Shirt French Cuff, which features rhinestone buttons for a subtle flash of sparkle.
The Suede Clutch in red goes perfectly with both our outfits and its chain strap is easy to tuck inside as a convertible clutch.
Beth is wearing the Taffeta Pleated Fit and Flare Skirt. This skirt was selling very fast, but there are many more chic bottoms to choose from that would be beautiful with the sparkle of the Poplin Shirt French Cuff. How about:
Crepe Tuxedo Wide Leg Pants | Metallic Jacquard Pants | Sequin Tweed Hampshire Ankle Pants | Velvet Midi Skirt | Floral Lace Pencil Skirt | Tie Waist Wide Leg Crop Pants | Flocked Hearts Mesh Maxi Skirt | Faux Leather Skirt
Beth's Outfit: Taffeta Pleated Skirt | Poplin Shirt French Cuff | Suede Clutch | Evelyn Buckle Suede Mules Kelly's Outfit: Slim Ankle Pants Floral Lace | Poplin Shirt French Cuff | Suede Clutch | Isa Buckle Suede Pumps
I really love these Slim Ankle Pants Floral Lace. The red really pops and is a lot of fun. But if it’s a bit too much color for you, they also come in black. If lace isn’t your thing, try the Velvet Tapered Ankle Pant. Or try the Hampshire Ankle Pants.
Now we can’t forget the shoes! Beth and I both opted for footwear with a little sparkle. Beth is wearing the Evelyn Buckle Suede Mules featuring a kitten heel, with a sparkly strap and buckle.
Beth's Outfit: Taffeta Pleated Skirt | Poplin Shirt French Cuff | Suede Clutch | Evelyn Buckle Suede Mules Kelly's Outfit: Slim Ankle Pants Floral Lace | Poplin Shirt French Cuff | Suede Clutch | Isa Buckle Suede Pumps
I went for a sturdy block heel and a comfortable rounded toe with these Isa Buckle Suede Pumps. They have a thin strap across the toe with a sparkly buckle detail.
No matter which look you go for, it’s really fun to add such a bright pop of red to your holiday outfit. It just lifts your mood and feels so festive!

Absolutely love the outfits today from Paris! Paris is one of my favorite cities! Such elegant and classy looks. I, too, am a big fan of Talbots! These looks are just divine just like the two of you. Thank you for sharing! Can’t wait to see more from your fabulous trip!
Paris is a wonderful city! Thanks so much Kathleen, xo Kelly
I too love the outfits today and Talbots is one of my favorite stores. The long full skirt looks so nice on Beth, but I am 5’3″ so will have to go more with your looks Kelly. Love them too. Shoes are so fabulous! Can’t wait until the pictures of Paris!
Hi Sherry, I am so happy we covered the bases and were able to show you petite and regular-sized looks! xo Kelly
Both of you look fantastic in your red, white and sparkle outfits! Fabulous intro to your Paris trip. Thanks for sharing these outfits from one of my favorite stores that has clothes that so many of us wear.
Hi Deanna, isn’t that bright red super fun for the holidays?! Thanks so much for stopping by, xo Kelly
Love your holiday outfits! Can I asked which hotel did you stay in? I’m in early stages of planning a Paris trip and would like to stay in the 1st or 2nd arrondisement?
Hello Robin, We stayed at an Airbnb apartment in the 1st. I really enjoyed staying in the 1st Arr. even though it was a very downtown vibe because it was so close to so many things we wanted to do and see. Walking to museums and to St. Germain was quick and easy. Stay tuned to read more about the trip, and I will have a separate post about the trip over on djalalicooks.com – xo Kelly
Great post: Talbots and Paris! What a fab combo!
You both look tres classique and classy … I’m going after the lace pants!
Hi Carolina Girl, The lace pants are a great purchase! They’re comfortable and feel great! Thanks for stopping by! xo Kelly
You both look fabulous! Wow! Didn’t realize Talbot’s had all that. Particularly love both shoes! Gorgeous!
Hello Nancy, Definitely add Talbots to your list of regular brands to check in on, they often have things that will surprise you. And if you’re petite, they have a great selection of petite styles. Thanks for stopping by! xo Kelly
