By the third dawn of any new month, I can break the seal on a dream from my mailbox: a Peruvian Christmas, whimsical romance in an industrial flat, acting in an independent theatrical production. Living between the glossy still frames of a catalog may by beyond the reach of your manicure, but the least I can do is relate how to combine and style pieces to look like your pretty little foot just stepped out of one. And I'll even have some acclaimed and applauded guest bloggers to cooperate in our cause.
Here are the docketed brands to date:
 |
| clash clever not crazy |
 |
| Combine equal parts bold and unexpected with classic and traditional |
But alas, who else to include? Kate Spade, 7 For All Mankind, Zara's, Bebe, Lucky Brand, H&M, Juicy Couture?
Pray divulge your bestie brand in the comments. If you do, you'll be entered to win a $25 prize from the Goodie Jar.
Spread giveaway cheer via Facebook, Twitter, or some other social mechanism and you get an additional entry.
I love everything about Anthro. The smell, the clothes, the displays, the fact that ours is right by Sprinkles. My kids know if they are good at Anthropologie, they get a cupcake!
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your site, and it is fitting a few more puzzle pieces together for me!
I have been redefining my wardrobe, and have begun the journey of discovering my tastes and preferences, as well as flattering styles and cuts.
I would really enjoy seeing you analyze catalogs along the lines of Soft Surroundings, Coldwater Creek, TravelSmith. These are the ones I most frequent, as well as look for inspiration from ModCloth, Anthropolgie, eShakti, J.Jill.
I really enjoyed your analysis so far. And am wondering where these fit in?
Your charts cut straight to the principle of the catalog's look. I'd love to see more!
I choose comfort and practicality for everyday, and to flexibly change with my activities. My preference tends towards classic and structured, but I find I love living with natural, soft textures that are wearable and easy-care.
Thank you!

ReplyDeleteI will definitely keep your requests in mind for future issues of Live the Life of a Catalogue. In the meantime, I recommend checking out this post on Anthropologie:
