Do you like Anthropologie? I do! Their clothes are so very pretty! The dresses and skirts are beautiful! But I can't really wear their clothes. I'm a bit over their target market's age (and, ahem, size) and also their clothes could be best described as romantic and whimsical, two things which I totally am not. Sporty and tailored? Check. Practical and comfy? Sure! Plain and jane? Yup. But ruffles, tiers and sheer make me look crazy. So I do a lot of lookie-looing to see what I would buy there if I were 5'9 and 115 lbs. (or if I were my dear sis Jenn who-- being tall, slim and FANCY-- looks FABULOUS in their clothes) but I've never even considered buying anything.
But their housewares? Oh. My. Gravy. They are to die for. I love them all! I guess I AM romantic and whimsical when it comes to housewares. Especially:
Orquidea tea set
Fleur de lys dinnerware
Cockatoo cocktail napkins (oh whatver, I'm just going to order these right now!)
Preening teapot
Nile delta tumbler
Fleur de lys tea cup & saucer
Birdwatcher dessert plates
Plus, pretty much any and all of their linens and those whimsical plates with the octopi and owls. So cool. Maybe I'll sell all my current stuff (8 place settings of Pflatzgraff and 10 settings of Pottery Barn Emma) and go romantic and whimsical for Spring!
And their bed & bath collection? Swoon.

I don't know about the slim and tall but I'll take the fancy and fabulous! THANKS! Their dresses are so cute right now and I am loving the Preening teapot. Love, Bunky
