The Windows of Anthropologie

I shouldn't have read the large S-A-L-E signs hanging in the windows. I shouldn't have thought on and off for the last three days about the items that called my name. I shouldn't have bundled up the kids gone for a walk and stroll right past the windows. The big windows with the signs. You know that store right outside my front door....You know, Anthropologie!!!! I shouldn't.....BUT I'M GLAD I DID!!!!

I bought this insanely, ridiculously, adorable necklace! I know it's a little over the top, but I even tried it on as I decided if was too much. Well leave it to Maizie, who said with sheer genuineness, "I think the necklace is BEAUTIFUL!"

And this little Idra Corduroy jacket...major deal of the day, originally $118 yet I purchased it for $19.95!!!! WoooHoooo...I'm still deciding what to wear under it though, the tag says it's neutral color, however I beg to differ it's kinda like a dirty light plum.


Oh and then the kids and I walked to a little park and climbed on rocks, went to Pusateri's for milk and cookies (for after lunch of course), came home, ate grilled cheese, changed the laundry, loaded & started the dishwasher, put away clothes, and it's only 1:30pm!!! I am thinking of some craft time and sipping a London Fog as I venture on through the rest of my day!

Have a lovely, fun day,
Amanda

Woohoo! Love your finds at Anthro! That necklace is adorable! Wear a yellow or light colored shirt with your jacket, with the necklace! Do it and take pics! So adorable!
