In the winter my skin always gets dry, dry, dry. It’s no surprise then that Anthropologie’s latest email is all about skincare and bathing. Lotion, soap, etc. I have never used any of Anthro’s skin products and honestly I don’t plan on starting. I have smelled some of their items in-store and they smell pretty good but I have my…
I will just come out and say it: I love the menswear as women’s wear trend. I think it can be very sexy and I love the way menswear fabrics are reinterpreted for feminine use.

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…
