Metapost: Reviews week!

Unfortunately this is shaping up to be a rough week at work. I have a big project that is close to over, but this next (and last) week is gonna be pretty tough. This weekend was already eaten by work. But in this economy I’m thankful to even have a job so you’ll hear no complaints. And now for the…

Pow! Accessories

If your life seems a bit grey, brown and black lately Anthropologie thinks it’s time for some color! Their new Pow! Accessories collection features big, bold jewelry designed to make a statement. (Rejected names include Zap! Jewelry, Blam! Adornments and Ka-pow! Accents.) In case you can’t tell the name of the section immediately brought Superheroes to my mind so I…

CURRENT CRAVINGS

Email: A Soup to Nuts sale

Anthropologie wants you to know they’ve added new items to their sale section. I didn’t see a ton of new items added but I will break it down in a post this weekend. I have been coveting a few items and if they made it to the sale this may convince me to pull the trigger. Are there any items…

Tano!

I love researching the brands that Anthropologie buys from. Recently I have been interested in Tano, maker of the Banana Cream Tote ($188) above. Every time I see the bag, I think ‘I love it!’ quickly followed by ‘I can’t justify the price for something that resembles a flattened bowling bag.’ The tote also comes in red, which I have…

Off the beaten path…Martin + Osa

I have had a long and torrid love affair with tee shirts. Everyday wear as a kid; worn like a badge in middle school; avoided like the plague in high school; obsessed over as a statement in college; shoved in storage in my early 20s and now I am once again falling back in love. Sometimes I wear tees on…

Email: Winter’s Building Blocks

Anthropologie is updating their website, and the Outfits section is their latest new page. They sent an email to slyly announce it. Their angle is ‘plan now for Spring later.’ Well OK, but I still love winter! I can’t say that I think these outfits would be practical even in Spring where I live, but they are lovely! The first…

For the home section updated

Anthropologie has updated its “For the Home” homepage (go to the website and click on {for the home} in the navbar). The featured item is the Tagliare Console Table ($398), a piece mixing different knotty wood parcels into a rustic-looking piece of home art. I have seen tables like this a lot recently. ABC Carpet & Home has had pieces…
