Why am I starting a blog about Anthropologie when there are so many out there already and so many good ones at that? Sooo many creative and beautiful girls taking pictures of themselves in their OOTD, reviewing clothes, taking pictures of themselves in Anthro fitting rooms, blogging about their clothes by name, taking pictures of themselves in anticipation of special events, offering fashion advice, taking pictures of…
I want to know the genius chick that first started taking pictures of herself in Anthropologie fitting rooms and posting the reviews on the ‘net? Where is the groundbreaking girl who has inspired so much good in the world? Who was she? Does she it do it for other clothing lines? J. Crew? Laura Ashley?
Surely, there are some rickety ole Sloane Rangers, some Princess Di wannabees left with big bangs and lace trimmed collars that are posting and photographing themselves yearning for the quaint old Laura Ashley? No? Thought not.
There are so many things to admire about these blogs. The soft core fashion porn photography, the creative impulse and bravery to combine prints, plaids and stripes; the even greater audacity to combine a skirt, top and sweater from AnthroLand with shoes, from stop the presses, TARGET.
I rarely have time to photograph my growing son much less my OOTD, outfit of the day for you other Clueless Ones. See below for a list of vocabulary terms. Sadly, I am often remiss in both time and introspection in selecting what Anthropologie dress and sweater will create blissful style moment that aligns the cosmos. When nature, the birds, the mist that swirls from the oh so quaint brick walkway where I lean with a pensive look on my face create a second of sartorial perfection. (For reference on the afore- mentioned fashion porn and misty water-colored moments of style and pensivity, see Little Girl, Big Closet.)
How can there not be a blog that honors the time, trouble and effort these young women take to further their Anthromances? Now there is!
