Review: Talbots Petite Dresses

November 12, 2023

Talbots is a brand that I, quite honestly, always associated with older women. Maybe it’s because my mom used to shop there quite a bit, back when Talbots had retail locations in Montreal.

December 1, 2021

Here we are nearly two years into COVID, and it’s shown no signs of letting up.
