It’s the largest, underground lending library! For the second year in a row Talbots has kicked off their Summer Book Club has kicked off and it’s so cool. I love this idea – it’s all about sharing the love of reading within your community!
“Give a Book. Get a Book.”
Here’s how it works – visit your local Talbots where they have an in-store lending library. Drop off a book you’ve enjoyed, and take one in return!
This “Give a Book. Get a Book” fun community event is in all 440 stores which means it will grow to be the biggest underground lending library ever!
I recently stopped by and dropped off a recent read I enjoyed. It’s called “Hello, Sunshine” by Laura Dave. Laura Dave is a longtime favorite author of mine. This particular story is about a blogger who is a fraud and gets exposed. Her life unravels when she’s forced to admit who she really is, and rebuild her life authentically – and away from social media! I found this sort of funny to share for obvious reasons! If you haven’t read a Laura Dave book, please be sure to look her up. A favorite Laura Dave novel of mine is “The Divorce Party.” I picked up a new read from the Talbots at the store library and will be diving in soon!

cute sumer Talbots looks
I’ll be candid. I’m nearly 40 and it never crossed my mind to go into a Talbots store until a year ago. I was hunting for jeans that were high waisted and affordable. I tried on a pair of Talbots denim by sheer chance and holy cow – I wondered where these jeans had been all my life?! They sat high on my waist to suck in my love handles, had great durability (no see through white jeans here!) and an amazing price point.
Since then I’ve been working with them and have been shocked by the cute outfits they have! Each of these outfits I hand picked from Talbots latest summer collection. The other day I wore this blue and white stripe shirt with yellow and blue fringe and was asked no less than six times where I got it! People’s mouths dropped when I said Talbots! The same is happening with cactus print top!
Seriously – every single thing I’m wearing is from Talbots is on sale and 40% off right now. If your my age you will be very surprised by how cute their pieces are. Take them off the hanger and actually try them on. And if you’re a Jimmy Buffet Parrothead this clutch and bracelet better be in your closet!
