Anthropologie unveiled a new outfits set yesterday morning that's a "modern nod to the reds, whites and blues." I am a big fan of all things patriotic so the color choices made me smile. I picked a few looks to showcase.
Goldenmeans and I both fixated on the same look. (Great minds think alike, etc.) I only have love for the Two-Wheeler Shirtdress ($128). The bikes all over it -- swoon! The shirtdress shape is so classic. I'm happy to see Anthro accessorizing with the somewhat hugemongous Beach Bounty Necklace ($58). I noticed after
As anti-blazer as I am, I have to admit I am eagerly waiting for the Professoressa Jacket (now $80, review here) to get a second cut. I've fallen in love with it after all. So it's nice to see a similarly tweedy option dressed up here. The look is founded upon the Polka-Peppered Dress ($148). A dress too adorable for words! Though strapless by design there are removable straps that come with it. This infuses me with hope. Anthro put Ett Twa's Vala Jacket ($98) over the dress, and upon further inspection the jacket isn't really tweedy. It's a ditsy floral! With a bow in the back! Finishing off the look are the Tangerine Rind Clogs ($395). They look cool but horribly uncomfortable. I eagerly await a review or the chance to try them on.
To pantsland we go for a look that's 3/4 preppy and 1/4 flowy flowers. I love the slightly cropped look of the J Brand 7/8 Mid Rise ($158) over the Classic Lace-Ups ($35) which are priced amusingly low for Anthropologie. Making up for that price break is the Blue Bird Blouse ($128). The blouse was obviously pinned for this shot -- boo. A splash of color (though not red, white or blue) enters courtesy of the Spilling Ruffles Cardigan ($98). Anthro adorned the ruffled cardi with two variations of the From A Seed Clip ($18). They had me until the floral clips.
I love the mixed patterns of this look! My eyes were immediately drawn to the beautiful Alpine Dream Skirt ($98). The tiered, embossed stunner is cool in chambray. Anthropologie goes less abstract and more directly nautical via the Sailing Stripes Blouse ($68). Like an old globe the Cartography Cardigan ($98) encircles the look and the Sweet-Wrap Sandals ($178) wrap things up. The shapes in this look are giving me some fabulous ideas.
This is another look I adore. What is up with the model's sourpuss face??!? Were I in this outfit I'd be smiling up a storm. The Button Bin Cardigan ($98) is cute as a button! And you're wearing it over the Clearly Constructed Dress ($138) that is clearly cute! I'm a little less enthralled with the Shadowrose Necklace ($80) but again I like that there's a necklace to draw inspiration from. This awfully cute look is capped with the Veracruz Flats ($78) which have a questionable color palette but undeniably look ready for spring. This is not my favorite outfit set but it gives me some great ideas. For a different kind of national pride I'll be wearing green for St. Patrick's Day today! How about you?
