Eye Candy: Store Inspiration


In this outfit: Beach Bounty Necklace ($58), Tiered Fronds Dress ($198, review here), Shadowsleeve Cardigan ($78), Wheatfields Belt ($48).

Time for some Friday morning eye candy! I’m always mesmerized by the outfits the Anthropologie teams put together at the NYC stores. I thought I’d share a few of my favorite looks with everyone. Several readers were kind enough to send over looks from their local Anthros as well so I will include those over the next few weeks as well. If you have photos you’d like me to include please email me. I will be adding these (and a few other shots) to my store inspiration album on Facebook.

The Beach Bounty Necklace ($58) was on display at every NYC Anthro last week! I kept seeing it on dress forms at each store so my contributions this week all feature it. If it was a trick to get me the buy the necklace it worked. If you like this piece, I’d recommend buying it in-store as the color varies widely from necklace to necklace. It ranges from ivory to pink. Plus, the flower piece itself is very fragile. This is a delicate necklace that will need tender care.

    That necklace does seem so versatile!I love seeing the store pics. The outfits are inspirational and the home decor makes me want to move in! Visiting other stores is fun because the are so unique. What a great way to do it via photos!

    Roxy, what color is the Shadowsleeve Cardigan in the first photo? Is it the gold color? It looks more tan or brown to me.

    It so beautiful Desert Flower! I used the last shot as some personal inspiration and everyone wanted to know where I got the necklace from. Definitely recommended, just make sure you inspect closely for defects before buying.Pamela – I agree! I love to see how they play with proportion, etc. on the dress forms.Tara – it is in fact gold. I had to up the exposure on that shot because it came out a bit dark.Teej – can't wait to share your photos!

    Thanks Roxy, I really love these! I have been watching for more inspiration but the dress forms around here are pretty lack luster. NYC and SF always are amazing, so glad to see those!!!I have been mulling over the beach bounty necklace too, and like Desert Flower now I see the possibilities!!I wish our online shop still had the "complete your look" options. I used to buy so much more when they gave styling ideas! Seems like the EU website still offers it.

    Oooh, I really love the look of that Beach Bounty necklace…I wonder if it would be too big for me? I'll have to go into my local store, and see if they have it for me to try on. Thanks for featuring it, Roxy!

    Hi Sieun, it's not really a dress on the last dress form. It's some kind of fabric or material draped.

    Hi, RoxyThank you for your posting as always :)I have a question to you.Is the dress/garment on a mannequin in the last picture an actually dress? It would be great if you could tell me. Thank you!
