Anthropologie Fitting Room Reviews: Day 3

Bonnie 9/30/2010 9 Comments Edit

Happy almost Friday readers! Today has been a good day! I learned alot of interesting stuff in my class, I made another trip to Anthro, and I've been nominated for a Anthropologie Blogging Award for Best Photography! I'm so honored to have been nominated, but most of all, I'm so proud of my husband for taking such great photographs with my little phone camera, and I'm so thankful for my very talented photographer friend! So, I made a final trip to Anthro today, and since I'm inching ever closer to 100 followers, I picked up a little something for a 100 Follower Contest. Of course, I loved what I got for you guys so much, I had to get one myself! LOL! Once I hit 100 followers, I will announce the details of that contest.

I ended up returning the Maximum Capacity Jacket, and getting 2 knit tops in exchange. I gave the Floral Frappe Top another try since Louise and LilMissSeamstress commented they liked it on me. I tried on a different color and size (green in medium), and it made all the difference for me. I also got the Ascending Roses Top. It is super comfortable and so pretty! I took a medium in it which is unusual for me in Deletta tops. I usually wear a small. So, stick to your true size in both of these tops. Here they are:

Oxer Jacket ($158). This one's for you Stephanie! I tried this on in a size 6 because the store didn't have an 8. I fit good everwhere except the third button down pulled a little bit. It was super itchy! I couldn't wait to take it off! I don't think it was very flattering on me. It is kinda boxy, but I really like the color. I'm not impressed with this one.

Foilage Finder Jacket ($148). OMG! I adore this jacket! This was new to the store today. I'm so glad I got a chance to try this on! I love everything about this jacket - the purple color, the ruffles, the sleeves! Well, there is one thing I don't like - it is itchy, but I'm willing to suffer for fashion in this jacket. This is a size 8. Wishlisted!

Fluid Flush Dress ($188). I really liked this dress. It was comfortable and it fit well. I love the hem! I just felt good in this dress. However, the price is ridiculous! I will wait for this one on sale. This is a size medium.

And now for the Grand Finale....

Jacinth Sweaterdress ($148). Wow! This dress is gorgeous! It looks red online and in the catalog, but it is definitely a burnt orange in person which makes me love it even more. I'm heartbroken, though, because I will never be able to tolerate the itchiness of this dress. I think most people will be alright with it, because it is not that ichy, but I'm super sensitive to wool, so I just can't do it. If it was a jacket or sweater, yes, but not a dress that is all over my body. I have a feeling this one is going to sale out quickly. It is super flattering! I think it will look good on most people. This is a size medium. I think I could have sized down to a small in this for a tighter fit, but I like the roominess of the medium. I envy you girls who can wear this! :-(
