Yesterday, after a few hours' work dowtown, I drifted over to Yorkville and into Anthropologie. I go there once in a while mainly to look at the props. As I wandered around I came across this little number, and it occurred to me that I work so hard and I do a good job of staying within my budget that surely I could give myself a gift. I tried it on in front of a huge mirror and I decided I would have it. I love everything about it, and I know I will wear it a lot. My wardrobe is small, but it contains clothing I really, really love. I believe in quality over quantity.

Anthropolgie...*sigh*... You made a perfect choice !
ReplyDeleteI love this miss adorable...you will look charming and elegant...
ReplyDeleteI am having my first ever Giveaway....Please come over for a chance to win...Thanks for everything..Cynthia
ooh, so many uses for this lovely addition to your wardrobe!!! I am jealous; I have never been to Anthro..someday!
ReplyDeleteThat's really a cute shirt. I didn't realize there was an anthropologie in Toronto. Definitely heading there my next trip.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty! I'm glad that you splurged!
ReplyDeleteAnd on an unrelated note -- I just love what Teresa McFayden has done with your stamps (on her blog)!
It is pretty and I can see why you couldn't resist. I learned quality over quantity eventually, but it was a long, hard slog!
ReplyDeleteOh sweet Colette, your purchase is GORGEOUS honey and you DO deserve it!!!!! I'm sure it is so beautiful on you...hey...I bet you could even re-create it, using muslin!! hugs and love dear friend, Dawn
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely right about Anthropologie. The best props ever in retail but I love their catalogue they mail out each month. I save them all because the photography and sets are remarkable .... just like your new shirt.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous purchase, of course to compliment your work! I just found you thru Teresa's blog, and I am loving all the creativity I see! You are inspiring!!
ReplyDeleteIt is simply perfect..Well deserved..and so You!

You are so right...Quality before quantity any day.Super cute.
ReplyDeleteThis is FABULOUS!!! J'adore Anthropologie!!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful...
ReplyDeleteI would wear this to death too , wish there were more little 'cover-up' tops like this around ,they're so useful and it helps if they're as gorgeous as this one .
Colette, it is absolutely beautiful! Of course you deserve it! I'm so jealous you have an Anthro in Toronto - I would die if it ever came to Montreal...
ReplyDeleteI love it...it is so beautiful! I know you will wear it over and over again!

A charming purchase, and it looks like a monochromatic watercolor painted by you. And I believe you DO deserve to have it.
ReplyDelete(I've never gone into an Anthropologie shop? I'm afraid to!)
...I can see why you couldn't leave that behind!...I wish you well to wear it!!!

I absolutely love this piece!!! I agree with you completely about quality over quantity! I just may have to check out Anthropologie's online site-- apparently we aren't "cosmopolitan" enough to have one in our town!
