Aalto Top ($78) and Conch Shell Pencil Skirt ($288) I know many people are on shopping bans (some for Lent) so it’s a bit sheepishly that I say I splurged a bit this weekend. I ended up further ahead then normal in February and I get free rent this month at my apartment. I put 3/4 of the money away…
Anthropologie has been pretty chatty via email this week. Their latest is two messages in one. First, touting their new hair accessories. The Polyantha Hair Pins ($15) that divide the email are pretty cute. But overall the first word that came to my mind browsing the hair section was “young.” And not like 20-something young.

First, Kiplingers says that Anthropologie’s items are just too unique to pass up:Then there are those coveted items that shoppers will find a way to buy, recession or no recession. Edgy apparel retailer Urban Outfitters (URBN) is as close…
I love this email! I am enjoying the bold prints Anthropologie is introducing for Spring and I think this is one of the best outfits pages they’ve turned out in awhile. I think I would wear every outfit except for the Nouveau Tile — and only because I don’t think I could pull off the Pell-Mell Poppy Blouse ($88). Love…
