All shipping methods are not created equal(ly): a poem

Anthropologie bags are so tempting,But full price leaves me unrelenting.I must stay on budgetAnd so I tough itAnd wait for them to go on sale.

CURRENT CRAVINGS

Styling posts are back! Plus a pro waiting in the wings

It’s been far too long since there were any styled posts on Effortless Anthro. I take full responsibility — I’ve been auditing a college writing program for the last few months and it has eaten up way more time than I thought it would.

I would wish for more but that’s about all the fingers I can cross! Will Anthropologie continue to tease with just a few…

The temptation of multiples

Cruising Anthropologie’s new arrivals section is a daily game of mine. It’s fun to pore over the pretty new things and carefully plan (and then, ahem, ignore) my budget for the month and decide which item or two might come home with me. This year I’ve noticed an interesting trend. More and more, Anthro is releasing an item in one…
