Echoing Necklace ($48), Jura Ring ($398).
It’s nearly November and Anthropologie has begun sneaking items from its next catalogue online. You can see the entire lookbook here. Though I’ve chosen a seasonally-inappropriate photo to kick off the post rest assured the book is filled with sweaters, hats and cold-weater musts. Not to mention horses and puppies! Inside, plenty of pretty photography but not as many outfit ideas as we’ve seen in years past.
Anthropologie just put up a video on their blog about Wyoming, the location for this shoot. I was wondering — those foothills looked familiar!
Perager Pom Scarf ($78), Unnamed necklace ($48).
The coat the community already loves!
Troika Booties ($188), Culpeper Knit Beret ($32).
In my opinion this shot, while majestic, does nothing to sell the cardigan.
Luckily we already know how awesome it is!
Bird of Happiness Necklace ($48), Rifka Bracelet ($18), Nettle-Tap Bracelet ($358).
Love this outfit.
Tula Booties ($350), Maidstone Necklace ($88), Manon Floppy Hat ($58).
Free People photobombed the Anthro catalogue.
Flecked Pastures Beanie ($32), Jura Ring ($398).
At first I thought this was the moss color of the coat, but it’s actually
a highly color-filtered shot of the cocoa version.
I wish the moss version had a contrast collar; I’d like it so much better!
Quatrain Scarf ($68), Troika Booties ($188).
“Now, where did I leave my car keys?” *beep beep* *beep beep*
Like me, this model only brings what she needs when camping. Like deer antlers.
And a 500 lb trunk. (There’s probably a giant hair dryer inside.)
As always, there are some non-catalogue new arrivals that caught my eye as well. In particular, the Southlands Coat ($398), Emperor Kiss Sweater ($118), Brass Tacks Boots ($295) — looooooove, Devote Pumps ($258), Midway Boot ($264), Maidengrass Cosmetic Pouch ($24) and Lewes Cloche ($58) have all landed on my wishlist.
I still don’t know quite how to verbalize what’s missing for me from Anthropologie’s catalogues. The locations are better and the shots themselves are better composed than last year and a million times better than 2011. For the most part we can see the outfits very well and the clothings stars as it should. But in years past I’d dog-ear almost every page of the catalogue with the desire to recreate the outfit in its entirety. There’s not a single outfit this month I want to replicate. I suppose it’s not necessary but it’s nice when the catalogue can speak to both something I aspire to be and something I can copy shamelessly, you know? So this catalogue gets a good but not amazing score from me. Community, what are your thoughts?
