Mother’s Day Style and Shopping List from Ann Taylor

It’s time to start thinking about what you’d like to gift your mom – and what she would like to wear – on Mother’s Day (May 14).

Ann Taylor’s Spring 2017 collection features trends such as bow and tassel details, earthy neutrals, gem stones and swinging spring dresses – perfect for any taste or style.  The brand’s International Women’s Day Scarf collection ($128 at AnnTaylor.com) is also a great way to honor the women and mothers in your life – with each scarf hand-dyed by women from a village in the Himalayas, all as unique as the women who made them.

I would also like to highlight the new video, This is Ann, which highlights past, present and futures generations of women and the victories they have achieved, to consider sharing as well.

International Women’s Day with Ann Taylor’s Scarves

To support International Women’s Day on March 8, Ann Taylor will be offering a limited-edition scarf collection. Each scarf in the International Women’s Day Scarf Collection is individually created by a group of inspiring women from a remote village in the Himalayas.

These women have mastered the artful process of collecting pashmina wool, hand-spinning yarn and individually dying each and every piece to create these scarves. Purchases of the International Women’s Day Scarf Collection will support these women and their community, helping them provide for their families by doing something they love.

Through the ResponsiblyAnn initiative, ANN INC. is dedicated to empowering 100,000 women around the globe through education and training about health, finances and beyond.

The International Women’s Day Scarf Collection ($128) is made from 100% wool and will be available for purchase at AnnTaylor.com beginning March 6. There will be four different colors offered: Lady Oxford, Saffron Thread, Bright Cherry Tomato and Electric Pink. Each scarf features its own variations – unique to the women who made it.

Ann Taylor and St. Jude Elephant Charm Jewelry Collection

Take a look at Ann Taylor’s new limited-edition St. Jude Elephant Jewelry Collection. From November 18, 2016 through January 28, 2017, Ann Taylor will donate 50% of the purchase price per of each item sold from the collection to the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

The collection is symbolic of the medical research performed at St. Jude: elephants have a high retentive memory and are believed to bring good luck. Elephants also live in families, and if something happens to one family member, another family will take care of the affected family for life, which reflects St. Jude’s mission to take care of families whose children are affected by deadly diseases. And elephants happen to live for a very, very long time.
