A: DOES IT COME WITH THE HORSE.
L: Pretty sure they're gonna FedEx me the horse?
A: It is cute as hell even without the horse. I continue to buy All The Things from Banana Republic.
L: You show me yours I'll show you another one of mine. Did you get the perforated leather skirt?
A: I did. And I bought a striped top (SHUT UP) and the faux leather trim cardigan. And a belt.
L: The only shirts I ever want to buy are striped shirts and I forcibly make myself choose a different patter. I LOVE the stripes. All of them. I bought this because sometimes I like to pretend that I'm an art teacher with an edge:

L: And when we are having fake class outside in the fall, I will throw this on top of it:

A: OOooh, that dress is lovely!
L: How stripes are for you is how pajama-like clothes are for me. I just want to feel like I am wearing PJs 24-7. That dress is like comfy, cozy jammies.
A: I don't do maxi dresses but I totally get the appeal.
L: But they give the illusion of height (assuming someone who is 5'2" - ahem, me - is wearing platform shoes underneath!)
A: I can't stop. I just bought Marianne's Frye flats. Half off!
L: Don't you say the words cheap Fryes to me or I might have to forego October's rent.
A: What? Nothing.
L: Right now I am thanking my lucky stars that they did not have these in a color that I wanted.

L: ADRIEN!
A: WHAT.
L: I'm going to send my landlord this link with my rent stub and $0. "Sorry, I have no more dollars. Love, Lili."
A: I'm sure your landlord will completely understand.
if i had an anthro so close i would be finished. i love that first dress - please post pic when you wear it. kim.
ReplyDeleteI just wore it to a wedding this weekend and stupidly didn't take a picture. I will post if anyone else has one of me in it!
DeleteAs a Canadian, can you guys please explain Anthro to us? Is it a mish mash of designers there?
ReplyDeletePretty much. They have a couple of brands and labels that they often carry (Corey Lynn Calter, Maeve, Pilcro) which are often hard to get in other stores, but then also a lot of rotating stock that fits their general ethos. It's like a very small department store, I suppose, more than its own fashion brand.
Deleteand they have awesome sales- regular & deep!
Delete& really irresistible house ware stuff.
my only complaint, their sizes run small. i'm not a big gal, and i'm most often a 10 or 12.
