In-store: markdowns galore (online too!)

Anthropologie appears to be in the total holiday spirit. As jacquelyn noted, their website has been updated with about 50 new sale items and in-store there’s plenty more. I stopped by the 5th Ave store on my way back from running errands and the sale section is double normal size. Of note was that many of the new sale items…

RECENT PURCHASES I ♥

Emails: ‘Twas the sale before Christmas

In true 12 Days of Christmas fashion Anthropologie is counting down the days before their Free Shipping on domestic orders over $200 expires. The 4 Days Left email extols the wonders of open cardigans while the 3 Days Left email cleverly points out that ‘not a creature was stirring except for your mouse.’ Curiously, I am only receiving these emails…

CURRENT CRAVINGS

Wish List: December 2008

Five things I am dreaming of this month… 5. What’s that you say?The Wide-Eyed beanie ($34) is for kids?Hmph. I might wear it anyway. 4.

The more I see this outfit,the…

Gorgeous! Standing Magnifying Glass set

I simply adore the old-fashioned look of the Standing Magnifying Glass set ($68-$128). I could see these used in so many ways — placed at separate angles on a vanity for a vintage backstage dressing room look; in someone creative’s office placed askew for inspiration; in a den or library for a functional-looking decor piece. From the description it sounds…

Email: Presents with presence

Did you know Christmas is only two weeks away? And Hanukkah is even closer! Kwanzaa’s coming up too! So if you are still looking for your gifts, Anthropologie’s latest email has some ideas for you. Their gifts with a twist page is a bit light in my opinion. I do like the megaflower votives they have on the page. They…
