Anthropologie Birthday Treat

I received my Anthropologie Birthday Discount before I left. Since my birthday is the LAST DAY of June I couldn’t wait for any birthday money or gift cards to use the discount.

Maia Column Dress, Sz M – I have been intrigued by all of Bailey 44’s column dresses but haven’t really liked any of the colors, styles or lengths. Then this dress came along. It’s colorful, sleeveless and shorter and perfect for me. I would have tried the Cap Sleeve Column Dress but my size was sold out in the Navy colorway. This definitely came home with me.

Revisited Impressionist Dress, Sz 8 – I knew I wouldn’t be buying this dress but I just had to try it on. That didn’t help as now I want it even more. It fits amazing and makes my waist look tiny. Also, just when you think it might be a little too tight in the stomach, the dress starts to flare out.   

Back Story Blouse, Sz 6 – This blouse is so cute and I really wanted it to work for me. It fit well in the chest but it didn’t flow like I expected it to and grabbed a little at the hips. Sizing to an 8 only made it look big everywhere. There’s a cute tunic dress in this print as well

Matana Tunic – This was on my wishlist to use my birthday discount with. But when I saw it IRL it was super sheer. Like sexy lingerie sheer. I was so disappointed that I didn’t even try it on.
So, after being disappointed I noticed a cute little cream-colored top with leather straps near the Matana Tunic. When I pulled it off the rack it was this super-cute cream-colored swingy crochet cami, the Adorned Whimsy Tank. I grabbed a Small to try on as it looked to run a little big. It was a perfect fit and goes well with my J Crew Linen Shorts in Safari Cat.
Pom Burst Pouch – This clutch also came home with me. It so cute and adorable and fun.
Lilliput Top, Size 6 – I bought this when I first saw it in the store a few months ago. It’s a gorgeous top and sold out quickly. I just noticed a restock online. It fits TTS and dips a little lower in the back. It’s so flattering and the green is very vibrant IRL. As you can see I wore it with white denim jeans and my Target Espadrille Wedges.
There was also a huge sale going on but nothing really caught my eye. Also, there was a Bike Lane Dress re-stock at my store, a size 6 and 8, several 2’s, and 4’s. I tried it on again and loved it but passed on it as it just seemed too whimsical for me.

Have a Great day!

    It's not the dress effect Audrey, you look very svelte in all the outfits. The column dress is amazing on you. Not to be cliche, but it looks effortlessly chic.
