I took the photo above on Sunday…ahhh, Sunday. Before this crazy work week started. But now it’s Friday and I am so very, very happy for that! I am playing around with the format of the OOTDs a bit — maybe one post a week filled with outfits works better? Not sure yet. Let me know what you think! Also…
Though it’s a bit early in the month the holidays are drawing closer. Less than a month til Hanukkah for instance! A few of you have started asking about Anthropologie’s Black Friday plans. Do they have any? (Probably not.) If not, what can I expect in the way of incentives? So I thought I’d recap what happened last year and…

Anthropologie sent me an email inviting me to review the items from a recent order. I’d already reviewed the items, both here on the blog and on the Anthropologie site. After initially being wary of the idea I’ve fully embraced the reviews to become something of a review whore. It’s a natural extension of the blog to me even though…
Of the common questions I get via email, “Have you ever done a store search for an item?” is up near the top. A store search entails calling the customer service line (1-800-309-2500 for those keeping score) and having a rep look for an item for you.
