Reviews: Coats and Sweater Coats

Elevenses is killing me. I mean that in the best way possible — they are testing my willpower every time I step foot into Anthropologie. They are unveiling coat after glorious coat and I quite possibly want all of them. I’ve already tried (and loved) the Inverness Trench ($188). The next Elevenses coat stealing my heart is the Spartan Coat…

RECENT PURCHASES I ♥

Reviews: Ruffles-Upon-Ruffles Tee & Ruffled Firelight Cardigan

Sometimes an item is changed between the time a sample is made and the time the final product is manufactured. Such is the case with Velvet’s Ruffles-Upon-Ruffles Tee ($78). I guess the shirt went through a bit of an identity crisis before making it to final press. You see on the model it’s a lovely teal shade with a banded…

CURRENT CRAVINGS

For Chloe: The Boucle Cape

Chances are good that Chloe’s Boucle Cape ($148) already arrived. This was one of the most interesting pieces in the new catalog and worth a try-on even though I know it’s not quite for me. It looks pretty cool on, maybe not quite ready for crime fighting. In the vein of that inspiration I would want to stand with arms…

Reviews: Top, top, top, skirt

I don’t know about you but my trips to Anthropologie usually last a while. Even though I’m there a lot. My visits last on average over an hour. Even before I started this blog my trips averaged that length. I just love walking around the store multiple times. It’s easily twice as long as I spend at any other store.…

Reviews: I went, I saw, I tried stuff on

You know you’re in love with a store when you end up there without meaning to. I was innocently on my way uptown when my subconscious pulled me off the 1 train two stops early at 50th Street. By the time I realized the error I was already above ground. Well, I said with a shrug, may as well head…

Reviews: Shoe roundup

I’m not really into the cult of celebrity but every once in awhile I see a star wearing something and think “NEED. NOW. Please.” Such is the case with Ms. Swift above, who is rocking Frye’s Mandy T-Strap Sandals. Not to go too far off on a tangent but it didn’t really warm up in NYC until August this year…

Reviews: Wisp-of-Lace Tank

Clownlike. That is what I thought with the Wisp-of-Lace Tank ($78). It has spots that resemble circus tents. It has a collar that came straight off the clown costume to your local Anthropologie. “This shirt,” I said to myself, “is ree-friggin-diculous.” Then again I’m not really one to let sanity (or lack thereof) stop me. I tried on the shirt…
