Email: A Texture Study

Anthropologie’s latest email celebrates textures of all kinds (maybe they saw my third Forefront Scoopneck option this morning?) and I am digging many of the pieces. The Switcheroo Bag ($318) in particular is one of my current faves; though I also love the Fundamental Flats ($155). Are you all about the textures, or do you prefer smooth and seamless?

Outfits: Forefront Scoopneck

Note: This week is outfit week on Effortless Anthropologie. Each post will feature one versatile piece shown multiple ways. The goal? Diversifying one piece a bit without sacrificing style. Forefront Scoopneck: $68 I wish that I could tell you about the fabric, fit and overall feeling of the Forefront Scoopneck. Unfortunately this top hasn’t made it to the stores near…

The Birthday Haul

After spending 15 glorious days on my entry table, my Anthropologie birthday discount card went to that big coupon bin in the sky today. Fear not though for it served its purpose well, delivering discounts to me on some coveted items. Before leaving I was ridiculously meticulous. I combed through Anthro’s site and made a spreadsheet of all the items…

Pretty shiny things

Like most women, I have my nicer jewelry and I have costume jewelry. I try not to spend more than $10 on costume jewelry (thank you, H&M, American Eagle and New York & Company!). Sometimes though the mid-market gets me. Anthropologie has unveiled a bunch of appealing items in the past month. The one thing about Anthropologie jewelry is that…

Email: Unmentionables no more

Happy Valentine’s Day to you! Anthropologie feels like desire (if not love) is in the air. Their latest email is all about the Bacini intimates collection. I saw a few pieces in store and the collection is quite elegant. Frilly, tasteful and cute. Anthropologie tends to think in terms of bralettes which limits their customer pool for intimates, but so…

Gorgeous! Family Night Tee

My personal finances are pretty tight at the moment but I’ve still been cruising the stores on behalf of clients. Anthropologie has slowly been rolling out new Spring items into stores. I went to brick & mortars twice this week and each time some new items were on the racks (as well as some new items being added to the…
