Outfits: Long Weekend

Summer Lovin by roxyturtle I can’t believe it’s almost Memorial Day weekend already. Wasn’t St. Patty’s Day last weekend? Not that I mind having an extra day to do whatever I please. I finally had some time this weekend to put together some new Polyvore sets devoted to a hop, skip and a jump outside. Don’t forget your suncreen! Summer…

RECENT PURCHASES I ♥

Email: Sleeve Science

Batman is my favorite superhero and apparently I’m not the only one. Anthropologie’s latest email is about the batwing top, another trend I’m surprised to see them tackle. The email is done really well and so is the landing page. I like the interpretation of the clothing as specimen and it fits in well with their bird and entomology design…

Email: Big Friggin Sale in stores

Just when I was thinking that Anthropologie’s sale section was looking a bit thin I get this email. Starting tomorrow Anthro is having their “biggest sale of the year.” That’s the good news. The bad news is that the email makes the distinction — biggest sale in stores. Edit, update: The sale is online as well though the pickings are…

Email: Bare, shoulders, knees & bows

It’s the time of year to show some skin (unless you’re in Calgary like my poor friend Belinda — she’s rocking the winter sweaters still). Anthro wants you to know that they’re fully stocked with shorts and summery tops via their latest email. They’ve got a few ideas on the Light & Bare page (tops) and the less creatively named…

Reviews: Two-Birds Romper

The Romper!!! Good lord why do I love this thing so? The Two-Birds Romper ($128) by Sine is a rich royal blue in silk/twill. If a romper is wrong I don’t want to be right I’ve decided. I laughed when I spotted this on the rack. Must. Try. On. There are pleats galore on this thing to the point that…

I’ve finally begun building up the Brand Sizing guide. It’s located in the right sidebar about halfway down the page. For best results do a find (control + F/apple + F) for the brand you are looking for. You can also search for a certain product anytime by entering its name in the blog searchbar. If you don’t see a…
