So, I made my 3rd and final trip to Anthro this afternoon. It was raining, and something about the rain got me in the mood to finally try on some sweaters. I am allergic to wool, so that really limits the amount of sweaters I can try on, but I did find a few as well as some other pretties. I also picked up a little something for the contest I plan on having once I hit 50 followers. So, stay tuned for that!
Tambour Blouse. The store didn't have a size 8, so I tried this in a 6. It fit like a glove. This blouse is really pretty! The zipper was a little tricky. It kept getting stuck, but I finally got it zipped. Wishlisted.
Dimpled Cardigan. This felt like it had some wool in it, because I got the itchies, but it wasn't unbearable. This is a size medium and it fit good, but I didn't care for the bulkiness of it. Just not flattering on me.
Curlytop Cardigan. I loved this sweater. It wasn't itchy, the fit was flattering, it has beautiful details, and the color is gorgeous. This is a size medium. Wishlisted.
Midnight's Spring Cardigan. I just noticed that I tried on alot of light blue. Sorry I didn't mix it up more with the color. I liked this sweater too. This is a medium and it fit good. This sweater was very soft and cozy, and I like the crossover thing it does in the back. Wishlisted.
Fractional Jacket. This was a odd little jacket on me. I didn't like the ruffles only being at the bottom on one side. It looks like I missed a button or something. This is a size 8.
Magnifying Glass Dress. I had to go up to a size 10 in this dress to accomadate the "girls." I liked it, but I didn't love it.
Foremost Dress. I knew I wouldn't like this dress because I don't like neon colors, and the belt on this dress is neon green. I decided to try it on anyway for you guys. This is a size medium and it fit pretty good. I think I could size down to a small for a more fitted look, but I kinda liked this dress with a more relaxed fit. The belt killed it for me. It has hook and eye closure, and I had to struggle with it to get it undone and redone. I like the bow, but the color is hideous.
Babergh Dress. This is a really pretty dress, but it's a little too fancy for my taste. I tried it on because I know there is alot of you out there that fell in love with this dress in the catalog shot. This is a size 8. I had to struggle with the zipper. I took a shot of the zipper from the side. This is where it got really difficult, but I did end up zipping it all the way. It was tight, but not uncomfortably so. I think this dress is meant to be fitted, so I don't think I would need to size up to a 10, but if I was really interesting in buying it, I think I would have tried a 10 just too see the difference. If your wide around the rib cage area, you definitely want to size up in this dress.
To A Point Top. It doesn't look so great in the picture, but I kinda liked this top in person. This is a size medium. I thought it was a bit pricey for what it is, though. So, I will consider this come sale time.
Lincolnshire Skirt. This baby runs big! This is a size 8, and the waist was way too big. I didn't bother trying a size 6, because the skirt was itchy. It must have some wool in it. I love the pattern and the bow on the front, though. Definitely size down in this one.
