Anthropologie updated their website with a new landing page this morning. You can flip through the December catalogue. Or you can give a pretty cool holiday feature a spin — a Mad Libs-style gift finder. I love this idea! I adore gift-giving and while I can usually brainstorm good ideas come those last 5 or 6 gifts my brain has turned to mush and I’m yearning for some help. Anthro to the rescue!
Huge BOO to Anthro for only considering Christmas with this page but otherwise their hearts are in the right place. It’s pretty straightforward. Some of the fields are superfluous and you have to choose a selection for everything even if the right choice is selected by default. Upon completion a pop-up presents about 20 gift choices. Some will make sense and some will make no sense. But the ideas are at least a good starting point.
In the spirit of this gift finder, starting tomorrow I’ll be running my own series of small gift ideas once a day from now til Christmas. Not everything will come directly from Anthropologie but it will all be in the spirit of the brand. What kind of gifts are you looking for?
i need gifts for my husband (under/around $100, we set a "limit") and something small for a 10 year old boy that has pretty much everything he could ever want. *lol*basically, i have the hard ones left. 😉
this is totally random but if you're into black friday specials then maybe this might be enticing. Tory Burch is doing a 25% off boots right now but if you spend over 300 (very easy to do) they take off another 30% from your order…so I got the Jaden Boots which are retailed for $550 for 289 + tax..so I saved $260.9 🙂 but now i wished i got the Donna boots……oh yeah, did you get the Cerulean Jacket yet? i'm trying to figure out how to wear it for winter winter weather..so pretty!
On the topic of Anthropologie's website: I've noticed they've removed the 'fresh cuts' heading on the sale page. Do you suppose they'll return it when they do their next round of markdowns?
Me too burntphotograph. Me too. Hazel, I have not bought it yet and probably will not in the near future (out of budget atm) but I'm happy to brainstorm some outfit ideas for you! Stay tuned…kikki cee, I noticed it too. Last week it was the Fresh Cuts still but just renamed, today however I see they switched up the order too. I have heard that tomorrow should be a good sale update — hope that holds true!
Roxy – I need your styling help! I just purchased the Blustery Days Dress Jacket in wine and have no ideas on how to style it. I love the jacket but can't figure out quite what to do with it. Can you help!?jm
jm – absolutely, happy to help out. Added to my list, we'll do this in an upcoming post.
