One of the great things about Anthropologie is that if an item doesn't sell out, then it will go on sale. Sometimes I am surprised at how quick pieces get marked down or at all the fabulous dresses that are hanging up in the sale room for $39.95!! So if there is something that you want or need and can't afford to splurge on at the moment and you need to wait until the item is priced more reasonably to match your budget then I would recommend saving your dough until it gets marked down.
WANT: Sunglasses, $119.95||NEED: Dress, $99||SPLURGE: Booties, $199.95||SAVE: Earrings, $19.95

This dress is one of those items that I was shocked to find that it had gone on sale. It is one style that Anthropologie has had for a few seasons -last year I think it was in a similar color palette. Why is it so awesome? Well, it is a dress that looks good on all shapes and sizes. It is both casual and dressy so you can wear to church, you can wear it out on a date, you can wear it running errands or you can wear it to work. It is the perfect "day to night" dress. It is so flattering on and everyone who has tried it on at the store, buys it. It is a dress that you won't bring back for a refund and that you will get so much wear out of it. Definitely worth your money, especially on sale for $99!!
These booties are a little more edgy, not necessarily for everyone because they are for a very specific look. They did come in a solid red and I wish that I had snagged them up before they sold out! But, I still really like them in the navy and red color combo! To me, I instantly think of european style or The Beatles. They are just really fun, have a lot of personality and I know that if I ever wore them out that I would get so much positive attention. Especially at a musical festival like ACL or South by Southwest in Austin, Texas. They would look cute with a dress, denim shorts or skinny jeans rolled up a bit. Love them! Even marked down they are still a little expensive, so hopefully they will get marked down again, which is more than likely to happen.
I've been looking for a really great cat-eye pair of sunglasses in white for a while now. Of course since I am so pale, certain whites/neutrals don't look good with my skin tone but I have a feeling that these would look darling! And the detail on them is divine! I really want to wear them with a big, floppy hat and a sun dress. Even possibly paired with those booties by Modern Vice. I know that white sunglasses were very trendy a few years ago when Mary-Kate Olsen stepped out for the first time in her white, Ray Ban, wayfarer sunglasses ...you know before Ray Ban was the "it" brand. She is responsible for the popularity of those sunglasses. I would say that Ray Ban owes her big time. Anyways, I have this "white" obsession right now. I want everything in my wardrobe to be white. I think a white pair of sunglasses would be a nice start.
These earrings I got to wear during one of my shifts at work because we put on an event for our customers with January birthdays in the store. I love Anthro events, they are so fun!! Anyways, they are such a great earring because they are super feminine and look like vintage, costume jewelry. You would think that they are too fancy but the reality is that they aren't. They can be worn dressed up or dressed down. I think people instantly think that they are too dressy so they don't even consider them when trying on earrings in the store. And it got me until I wore them for an Anthro event to really see that they are versatile. Sometimes you just have to try something on to really know if it is going to work or not. A lot of customers pass up on items because there is no "hanger appeal" to them. But what I've learned it to step outside my box and try stuff even if I don't think it is cute on the hanger.
Here are five more sale looks that I love from Anthropologie. First look is a "charlie" trouser on sale for $29.95! The first black dress is on sale for $49.95 and comes in two other blue colors. The black, wrap dress comes in 3 different colors and is on sale for $39.95!! The neon shift dress is on sale for $79.95!! And the sheath dress is a new mark down at $119.95!!
