| What kind of Anthro-fuckerie is this? |
*Presses hand to forehead*
*Sighs*
I just can't with this, Anthropologie. I mean, my god, your store is just a short walk from my house. I spend too much there when the weather is nice. But it is a love-hate relationship. Sure, I can find pieces that work for me on occasion. But on the whole, the shirts and sweaters run too short for a tall girl. You have too many flouncy and A-line skirts that really don't do anything for a tall girl with an hour-glass figure. (More pencil skirts please.) And yes, every once in a while something fits and oh yes, yes, I buy it. I admit it. I even pay full price.
*Gasp*
I think I need a cookie. Or a hug. In a metaphorical hug kind-of-way. I'm from a northern clime and we don't touch each other for god's sake.

I am equally perplexed by the polka dot pants/jeans. Huh?
ReplyDeleteI have walked by the polka dot jeans numerous times. I have been tempted. Torn. I've bitten my lip in the aisle and said, "Should I? Dare I? Non!"
DeleteThat is all to say, I am conflicted, once again.
*Looks ashamed*
I head to,the sale rack or buy earrings there. And have you ever seen a decent pair of shoes there? Please. Love your bangs!
ReplyDeleteOnce upon a time I saw a pair of teal high-heeled loafers and it was love, my friend. Sweet, dirty, passionate, irrational, love. Yet still, I did not buy them. Sometimes a love like that cannot be owned.
DeleteIt's like they had some leftover material, but not quite enough and they just said, "Fuck it. Let's do the best we can with the scraps. AND still put a huge price tag on it."
ReplyDeleteSomewhere out there, some chick is happily wearing that shirt. You just know it. *cringe*
Let's pray she lives somewhere warm.
DeleteOh wait. I just saw the sweater buttons. This is a crime against fashion.
DeleteAlthough I love the look of most Anthropologie products (except this shirt because it's stupid), I don't shop there anymore. The owner's stance on pro-conservative/ anti-liberal issues, mostly the financial donations he's made to anti-gay groups, fuels my internal boycotting of all things Anthropologie/ Urban Outfitters.
ReplyDeleteAnd this is how it happens. I've become one of those weird, Debbie Downer commenters. #SoLonely
Nooooooooooooo!
DeleteI didn't know that. SIGH. This just adds to my complicated relationship with Anthro. Great.
This "top" actually makes me feel kind of motion sick!
ReplyDeleteYour inner ear realizes it goes against nature.
Deletethat's the dumbest sweater I've ever seen. people sure pay a lot of money to look homeless. anthropologie makes me look like an old woman playing dressup in an eight year-old's clothes.
ReplyDeleteLaugh!
DeleteI wonder if you can click "get the look" and get redirected to a YouTube video of a girl cutting a sleeve off a sweater with a pair of scissors.
ReplyDeleteYou should make that video.
DeleteI agree, craptastically idiotic. I refuse to wear anything with one sleeve. It feels like I am mocking someone. Soon they will be selling trousers with only one leg.. won't we all be super stylish then ?!
ReplyDeleteWhen we lived in Portland, Or, I was a block from a fabulous Anthropologie. You could find me there just about every day of the week, it was a bit too close to the streetcar stop. I couldn't help it, off the train, into the store.
But now- after living in Argentina for 5 years, I am salivating at the thought of spending a few hours in an Anthropolgie store. Just try to keep me away !!
besitos, ( if the clothes don't work, I always ended up with cool cups , candles and smelly things)
Love the candles! They're the Anthro gateway drug.
DeleteShe's got a really nice butt, I wouldn't cover that up.
ReplyDeleteYou have to have an exceptionally good ass to be able to cover part of it and reveal the other and still have it look good.
Delete*Snaps*
Snort! Reminds me of LuAnn from Real Housewives of OC. :D
ReplyDeleteYou've been watching too much RH again.
DeleteThe A-line dresses don't work either. The waist is too high so I look like a toddler. Dejected, I sit on a couch in the housewares section and pretend I live there.
ReplyDeleteThey have the same effect on me. I noticed that Katie Holmes is fond of flouncy skirts and A-line silhouettes and she looks like a toddler too. Someone needs to give that poor girl an intervention. I think she's my height too. Basically, we have the same body and I break out in hives every time she puts our body in something unflattering.
DeleteSIGH.
That shirt actually makes me angry.
ReplyDelete:-)

*Fist bump*
DeleteI...would try this on. Perhaps wear it if it worked.
ReplyDeleteDon't hate me.
I won't buy this one ever. Look at how it was made. Like they just stitch it on without a care. And the price is too high. Bummer!

It's like the sideways mullet of sweaters.
