Ann Taylor’s New Snakeskin Print

Ann Taylor has always been a source of work wear for me. Back when I worked in the office 5 days a week, Ann Taylor was a definite go-to. They make styling very easy with lots of options for mixing and matching. Now that I work from home the majority of the time, I haven’t shopped at Ann Taylor in a very long time. Just last week I decided to hop on their site and saw this gorgeous snakeskin print that just spoke to me.

The snakeskin print was big in 2018 and is still going strong. I love how this matching set is very subtle. From afar, it doesn’t look like snakeskin. It’s a pretty pale dove-gray color. It reminds me of my favorite shade of gray from Dior. It’s soft and definitely work appropriate. Also, the fact that it is a matching set gives you loads of options. Pairing the top with black pants or a skirt is also very office appropriate. For cooler temps, you can pair this skirt with a fuzzy white sweater. This snakeskin print is very wearable and versatile. It’s also totally on-trend without looking like you are trying.

If I were wearing this to the office, I would swap out my boots for a pair of Inez pumps (take 15% off any Inez shoes with code TARA15, and size up by half a size!). But for this look, I was going for a weekend dinner vibe. I like how the boots make the look more effortless. It’s an easy and comfortable outfit. I love being able to wear a skirt and still be extremely comfortable in it!

Styling Tip

To pull this look together, I added a black belt. One styling tip I have is to bring a different color into your outfit by making sure it appears two times. So that can be shoes and a belt as I have done here, or a bag and earrings. It can also be one color in a printed pattern and a bag. Bring it in twice so that it doesn’t look out-of-place. There already is white in the snakeskin print of my outfit, so my white bag fits in great!

If you are looking to incorporate the snakeskin trend into your wardrobe but aren’t into some of the bold patterns out there, I would definitely give this print from Ann Taylor a try!
