Email: Precious Cargos

Ah, cargo shorts. Endlessly useful; perpetually bulky. Anthropologie’s email blast yesterday celebrates utili-chic. My first reaction to the email was “is she wearing silk cargo shorts?” and yes she is. They’re the Wispy Cargo Pants ($118) and they’re pretty. The email leads to a specialty page.

Off the beaten path…Apartment Therapy’s Small Cool contest

screen capture from Apartment Therapy Full disclosure: I heart Apartment Therapy. Though their modern-minimal style is sometimes a bit over the top for me the site serves as inspiration for those of us who live in tiny spaces. Plus I love how founder Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan took an idea and built a successful business out of it. Kudos, sir. Each year…

Ugh, bad news. According to mediabuyerplanner.com, Anthropologie plans to cut its catalogue circulation by about 14% in fiscal 2010. I know that some Anthro fans have a hard enough time getting the catalogues regularly as it is so this can’t be good news. The article states that Anthropologie will cut the circulation from 21.5 million to 18.4 million copies distributed.…

Creating a buzz to help the planet

Anthropologie is no slouch when it comes to Earth Day. This year they’re calling attention to sustainable agriculture and the plight of honeybees. Since 2007, honeybees have been disappearing or dying at a sometimes alarming rate due to colony collapse disorder. While this may sound great (no more stings!) it’s actually quite harmful to the food chain…not to mention the…

I have never been there and looking through my closet it is decidedly very New York City and not very Orlando.

Effortless Blouse by Odille

My, my Odille. What a lovely name for a blouse! Your Effortless Blouse ($78) has already won my heart. Anthropologie says “It’s just the sort of dressed-up basic that elevates a t-shirt-and-jeans wardrobe.” They can add an extra bullet — Roxy approved!
