I love to mix their clothes with vintage and pieces from other stores, because I think an outfit all from there might have too much going on at once!marisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16038338663888477354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595987325372859588.post-80569278689579714632010-10-20T16:19:48.402-07:002010-10-20T16:19:48.402-07:00Great photographs, Yes I too have been taken with ...Great photographs, Yes I too have been taken with the patterns at Anthropologie. We now have 2 here in London, a really snazzy store on Regent street and another store on the Kings Road, it is still quite a novelty here, they have really invested in their stores which have large water features, walls of living plants and great displays BUT ...yes the quality of the fashion is poor. Its all stylish seducing merchandising. The homewares,handmade and one off pieces are fabulous. xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595987325372859588.post-1491539354560413212010-10-10T00:59:12.735-07:002010-10-10T00:59:12.735-07:00some interesting comments..!

Their clothing seems almost disposable, once you wash it looks horrible, a couple hours in their sweaters and you have piling everywhere. I am not happy when I spend close to $100 for a piece that looks like crap the second time I put it on.<br />That being said, the plates, tabletop stuff, etc...are a good deal when they are on sale. <br /><br />I like to go to the store for inspiration but am very careful about what I purchase there.abby jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16186069406334168116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595987325372859588.post-89885996037267168062010-10-05T06:16:18.223-07:002010-10-05T06:16:18.223-07:00Really like the ruffled curtain. the color degrada...Really like the ruffled curtain. the color degradation on the color fabric is very nice.And So I Whisperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12254825927537732186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595987325372859588.post-32749891493033719782010-10-02T19:47:22.210-07:002010-10-02T19:47:22.210-07:00Hi

They h...Anthropologie's aesthetic is wonderful. They have a great eye for original artists and there's a timelessness to their products and style which is comforting. Their catalogs which are becoming increasingly more difficult to get, fetch money on ebay and are a stylist's dream. Rebecca Purcell was the creative director at some point (not sure, if she still is) and is responsible for Anthropologie's visuals, which are maintained to this day. Her work as an artist and stylist is excellent and she has written an inspiring book: "Alchemy of Interiors". Her window displays are legendary. <br /><br />However, it appears that the entire store is like a set, designed to attract people to the discount section where it seems the majority of their sales are made. <br /><br />The one puzzling thing to me is their product labeling. Whenever a product comes from an "attractive" location such as Italy, Spain, Portugal etc. Anthropologie proudly states the origin. Whenever it is "Made in China", Anthropologie's labels say it's "Imported". And there are many of their admittedly beautiful garments and products made in China. Which is fine, but at least, I wish they would be upfront about it. Beautiful it is, green it's not.<br /><br />I've been reading your blog for quite a while now and would like to thank you for all your work and inspiration.<br /><br />Hi from Ithaca NY,<br />Kathrinannekatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01708817207502431847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595987325372859588.post-39100883432789665402010-10-01T05:57:05.209-07:002010-10-01T05:57:05.209-07:00agree with erica. very inspiring. but, it seems mo...agree with erica. very inspiring. but, it seems most of the people who buy at anthro are wealthy and skinny.amhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05397671523553936318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595987325372859588.post-82342160605818501102010-10-01T01:33:16.225-07:002010-10-01T01:33:16.225-07:00i agree that anthropologie has nice things and i d...i agree that anthropologie has nice things and i do enjoy their window displays, but am overwhelmed with how many there are here. every shopping center has one now! it's a bit of a turn off, and i wonder about their qualityashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14239750005731201482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595987325372859588.post-86857461271378301722010-09-30T16:24:31.835-07:002010-09-30T16:24:31.835-07:00hi! that is very true paz lopoez - i have answered...hi! that is very true paz lopoez - i have answered my own question with the things here! and thanks erica and yoli it is interesting to here the points of view. i guess i was just wondering where anthropologie sits, as we are not familiar with it here so much. but they seem to take some nice risks with more unconventional designs, especially if it is aimed at a very wide audience?ii-ne-korehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172722705814665171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595987325372859588.post-64691762981525818082010-09-30T09:44:20.512-07:002010-09-30T09:44:20.512-07:00I love Anthropologie, it is very popular here in t...I love Anthropologie, it is very popular here in the States.Yolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06068063513978782703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-595987325372859588.post-40393975783476105472010-09-30T09:13:11.957-07:002010-09-30T09:13:11.957-07:00Anthropologie is amazing although very expensive. ...Anthropologie is amazing although very expensive.
