I received the link to view the May 2012 Anthropologie Catalog yesterday. These are just a few of my favorites from it. They are having Free Shipping for Card holders as well for any purchases over $100.
Marietta Sunhat – Now this is a hat that could dress up any plain outfit. No other accessories needed. And with my newly diagnosed Rosacea I certainly need to cover my face as much as possible, especially while on vacation.
Petals Unfurling Top – This looks so breezy and casual and vacation-y! The length look like it covers the mid-section pretty well. I see this with rolled denim shorts. I would definitely get both white and black.
Maia Column Dress – Now this Bailey 44 column dress is one I would buy at full price. I haven’t tried any of the versions on yet but I think it was because none of the colors appealed to me. I saw this one in my store window display this past weekend but didn’t have enough time to try it on.
Blue Bombos Dress – I didn’t even notice the bees originally on this LeifNotes’ dress. This looks soft and flowy and could feel great against your skin.
Sky Trails Maxi Dress – An absolutely gorgeous beach vacation dress by Addison Story. Even the catalog shot of the model in the clear water makes me want to fly away right now. With this dress of course.
Flared Annabelle Dress – This dress makes me want to twirl, just like the catalog image. It’s cotton with a cotton lining and looks to be a midi-length dress meaning I’d need to wear heels with this. Not sure I could get away with flats at my height and the midi-length. The only thing bothering me is the back neck tie. Very odd.
Revisited Impressionist Dress – I am really drawn to digital prints on clothing and love my Crepe Myrtle Shirtdress from Sarah Ball and this Tracey Reese dress is no exception. Oh how I wish I had a summer wedding to attend.
Leadlight Maxi Skirt – This is a gorgeous stained-glass print Maxi skirt by Maeve. They always have wonderful clothes. It may be a game-changer for my trip. With all the colors in it I can certainly wear this with different tees and my Linen Sweaters every few days. A major plus is that it is lined in Cotton. That’s always great for warm summer days. It has a matching cropped (!) top as well that I’ll pass on. I ordered it in a 8P so I’ll review that when it comes in.
I’m sure you’ve noticed two common themes here…lots of blue hues and vacation is on the brain. Many are colors of what you want the ocean to look like on a beach vacation. I hope these hold out, and maybe even make it to sale, by the time my birthday discount arrives in June.
I can’t wait for this catalog to arrive on the Google Catalogs app for iPad. It’s great to mark and “heart” my pages or specific items. Do any of you use it? Both J Crew and Anthropologie are uploading their catalogs to it along with Boden’s, Neiman Marcus, Lands End Canvas and Madewell to name a few.
Have you had a chance to look at the Anthropologie May catalog? What do you think?
I did not even notice the bombos dress but now I can't take my eyes off it!
