Anthro Dressing Room Pics

 Seems like each year for my birthday I treat myself to some dressing room self care at Anthropologie trying on random pieces, some of which are just for fun, other's for serious consideration. 


How I started...


t-shirt-Amazon, jeans-Universal Standard, sneakers-H&M



some sale items, more sweatshirts here and similar khakis here

First off, love this sweatshirt's vintage vibe, plus it's cozy, quirky, and on sale. These khakis serve as a good base, but are interesting in their "off the beaten path" silhouette. Solid casual 'fit. 



mock-neck sweater here, and skirt here

A bit of autumnal drama in this look. As the dressing room attendant said, "you'd be a fool to pass this up, the colors go great with your hair." I agree, love the green with my red. I already have a similar skirt and was going back n' forth on the sweater. Not loving the shape. 




polo sweater here, and another khaki option here

Another go-round with these khakis to try on this polo/rugby inspired sweater. You can read my thoughts on polo shirt styling here. 

I ended up taking home the sweatshirt and have been living in it around the house. I was on the fence with both of these sweaters, I eventually did order the polo in this color motif. The khakis and skirt were just for the purposes of outfit building in the dressing room.

What are some of your favorite stores/places to try on clothes for fun? Check out some previous dressing room posts, here, here, and here.

Annie Lennox Realness!

Love the tuxedo detail of these cropped pants. coat/pants-Jcrew(similar here and here ), blazer-Zara(similar here ), shirt-Asos(sort of similar here ), shoes-DSW(really cool here ), gloves-Brian Atwood for Neiman Marcus/Target(more gloves here ), sunglasses-Banana Republic(similar here ) I'm feeling very Annie Lennox circa Eurythmics in this outfit, eh? Most times wearing a coat is a necessity, not necessarily an intricate part of the outfit, but here it really makes the look. And even though the blazer is covered up the hints of it, almost like a lining, work break up an all grey/white look.  And now for your viewing pleasure  Sweet Dreams:   Have a great weekend!

Hamptons-Poolside-Chic meets Sue Ellen Ewing Early '80's Realness

Okay, this post title is ridiculous I know, BUT come on, it's accurate am I right? blouse- JOA via Le Tote , necklace/bracelet- Le Tote , trousers- Zara , belt-J.Crew,(similar here ) wedges- Sole Society These pleated drapey pants scream early 80's glamour. Paired with this sailor-suit-esque blouse I was definitely ready for a seaside cocktail party, right? This outfit also called to mind the elegance of early 80's  Dallas .  It has been my experience that as a child of the 80's one's house was either in the Dallas camp or the Dynasty camp. We were a Dallas household for sures. So, one of my earliest style influences was Sue Ellen Ewing . Despite the pills, the booze, the philandering husband, and lost potential of a life on her own terms Miss Sue Ellen kept it quite fierce especially in the early years of the show.  Here she is serving up sternum-baring chic!  I tried to watch the reboot of the series on TNT, but I just couldn...

Cowboy Boots & Floral Skirts

Western wear has seen a resurgence here with the Cowboy Carter of it all, among other influences. I'm not one for cowgirl cosplay, but I do enjoy a good boot. Here I've styled by western boots with a mixed print autumnal outfit.  Blazer-- Luciano Barbera via Threadflip(now defunct), henley-Gap(similar here ), shirt-Uniqlo(similar here ), skirt- Amazon , boots-Coconuts via DSW(similar here ), necklace/bracelet- Slide Jewelry , ring/necklace-Ana Luisa(similar here and here ) I last featured these boots in a spring/summer look here . And I styled them with this same skirt back in April here . While this top is part of a "matching set" featured here  I'm doing the classic styling hack of "breaking it up" and the olive green coordinates with the skirt. You can watch my reel of the cinching drawstring features of this shirt here .  Again I'm wearing the promotional Slide Jewelry set.
