Anthro Love

Top: Anthropologie (L)
Necklace: H+M
Jeans: Torrid (14)

Over the weekend, the BF, and I took a little side trip to West Edmonton Mall. OK, it's not much of a side trip, it's about 10mins from our house, but still it's very rare we venture to it because it's so insanely busy on a weekend. I mainly wanted to go and check out the new Doc Martens store. More on that in a few weeks when I actually buy a pair of boots. :)

Another reason to hit up the chaotic WEM is to go to Anthropologie. This location is one of the best. (Better than Vancouver and Seattle) The store is aways well organised, clean, and very well stocked. If you're plus sized, don't put Anthro off thinking nothing will fit, every time I go I find at least 3-4 items that fit me nicely, and you'd be amazed how many times I've needed a size M. It's all about knowing your body, and understanding clothing cuts, you can really only learn this buy trying things on and experimenting.

Skirt: Penningtons (14)
Belt: Talbots (L)
Necklace: Coco from Stella and Dot

I tried on several tops, but this was my favorite. I love the pattern, and how it blurs on the side, the front actually folds over so the top layer is loose. I wore it on Saturday night when we went out to see Judah Friedlander. I just wore it with jeans and a cream blazer. I wore it again to work on Monday with my favorite bright blue bandage skirt from Penningtons. I belted it this time with a skinny suede belt I scored from Talbots on sale for 90% off. Talbots is another store not to be dismissed. Most of their items are a little conservative for my tastes, but once in a while they surprise me.

P.S. My tripod that I ordered should be here any day! Excited no more mirror shots!
