Anthropologie reviews

~ Winterwear ~

It’s been a real task to shop for winter clothes this year. Seems like retailers positively refuse to offer warm clothing. I pretty much gave up on trying to find sweaters and focused on layering.

Target thermals size XS or Small

I pick up a few new target thermals each year. The quality is crap and the colors are questionable lol, but they work for a season or two.

J.Crew vintage thermal henley size XS

I had high hopes for this and was a little disappointed. The fabric is nice, much thicker than you’ll normally get from JC. The purple is beautiful, that impossible to find elsewhere shade. But the sleeves are a bit strange. They feel as if they were sewn incorrectly around the shoulder and the sleeve length is shorter than I would like, with a tight cuff. Not a great layering top, more a wear on it’s own. I think this will be cute in the spring with a pencil skirt. I’m glad I did not size up to try and gain length because the body stretches out with wear.

Anthropologie reviews: Side snap, draped lapel, slung sash, sweetheart shrug

First a couple things I saw but don’t have photos of.
The Gamay sweaterskirt: Unlined, very long, and made me look like I was made of play dough, ie lump city.
The Hallowell cowlneck: Extremely coarse fabric.
Harrington cowlneck: So short and weird. It’s like a scarf with sleeves, not a proper sweater. I seriously could barely figure out how to put it on.

Anthropologie reviews round up

This is part 2 of my Anthropologie reviews catch up and I think I finally have all the pics cleaned out of my camera lol. I’m staying home (and being good after some online purchases) this weekend but I’ll probably head out to Anthro next Friday in hopes of spotting some of the newer items. If you have a review request, leave a comment and I will try to look for it next week.

Anthropologie reviews catch up

I’m so behind on Anthro reviews again! I have about a month’s worth of pictures to post. I figured I better do it otherwise I have no justification for going to the store this weekend lol.

AG Stevies ankle jeans sz 26

Here are the much loved AG stevies. I took my usual size 26 and the fit was great. These were probably the first pair of AGs that didn’t give me flat butt. Love the slightly washed out colors, love the ankle fit, love the stretchy but not cheap material. Big unfortunately, the rise on these is too low for me. Seriously I cannot sit comfortably in them, too much gaping in the back. So they are a complete no go. I am sad.
