Keiko's of Keiko's TanPoPo told me I'm too honest. It's true! I'm into full disclosure. But before I SPILL, here is todays OOTD...
So this is it...
This outfit is so cute standing up. But I didn't get that far. By the time I get home I will be a wrinkled mess. This dress got a 2nd cut this morning. A week too late for me to claim a credit.

I SHOPPED THE SALE AND THE SALE WON!
I really lucked out for my first two orders this morning. Oh, did I forget to mention I placed 4 separate orders today. The shipping alone came to $52. Consider yourself lucky to not live in a No Anthro Zone. If I wasn't such a lunatic, and had stuck to my Wish List as I planned, I could have saved $12, if I had ordered it all at once. But NOOOO.....
I couldn't believe it when I found the Star Mail Necklace on sale. There was only one left. And it just happened to be my Astrological Sign. CAPRICORN. How lucky can I be.

Am I a Sucker or What?
Next up was Cardigans. When I got to the last row, I couldn't believe my eyes. I've been looking for this Cardi on eBay for over a year. How can it be here in the sale section. Did somebody stumble on a few of these in the back of the warehouse, and decide to just throw them into the mix? And in my size! It's not possible.

Then I picked up the Paraiso Dress. The only item that went on sale that I had in my WISH LIST. I have to have just about every Maeve Dress that Anthro produces. They fit me like no other. Perfect every time.

Anyway, I continued to lose my senses all day long. Order Three comprised one Tataborello Necklace. Can you blame me. I love Tataborello! It was in the cards before I ever woke up this morning.

BAD LAURA!
Here the sound of a whip cracking?
After lunch I had to visit Heidi to see her Anthro picks. I quickly proceeded back to my office to place order number 4. Four Necklaces and a Bracelet.
BAD Heidi!
It's really not her fault, but I have to drag her in on it for her own good. And mine!
You can see all the damage at once HERE. The first 13 items.
Did you overload on Anthro today? If not, take the plunge HERE

Here's an EZSNiper worthy item from eBay, if you don't have it already: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&...
(ANTHROPOLOGIE "Lantern's Glow" by Moth Crochet Birds S) by seller, "mimisgamine"
This seller seems to have really nice, Anthro Vintage pieces!
(Remember Anthropologie sold a LiaMolly sweater dress called, "Lantern Glow dress" and the year after they released this skirt version! Sooooooo cute!
One of my fave Anthro pieces that I enjoy wearing)

I'm already set-up to use my last Snipe on a gorgeous Anthro treasure.

Wow, awesome sale haul. I had $500+ in my cart when I first started browsing the sale at 4:30 a.m. By 6:00 when I placed my order it was down to 4 items. Sigh. I will probably regret letting a few things go but I have to stick to the budget. I mean, it is only the 5th of the month and I placed an order over the weekend besides one this morning. Darn you Anthopologie, you win again!
I really love what you picked (yeah Capricorns)!
And I about choked on my breakfast when I saw the Any Other Rose cardigan in the sale section. I mean, how old is that cardigan and there it was listed? Don't they usually "dime out" items that old? I am so happy you ordered one. I can't wait to see how you style all of these goodies!
GeoInCalifornia 99p · 730 weeks ago
Yay for sticking to your budget. I suppose at the moment I don't have one. But that can change at any time.
The Star Mail necklace was a bit of a fun find. Then the cardigan right after that. I thought what the heck.
Even though the Description for the Petalouda Necklace doesn't say it's a Tataborello piece, I know the nuances. Yay!
So Katie! What did you get?

The Cardi was a total freak. It's from 2009. There was only a few. Maybe one Small and one Medium.

You look so fun in the polka dots - another great score! I managed to order last night (probably your early morning) the Dots After Six skirt and the Chiffon Swing blouse...oh plus, i got the Mompos dress. I couldn't resist...

I'm off budget right now. But eventually I will be forced to take the straight and narrow road again. Sometimes a hard working gal just needs to live it up. That means SHOP!
Yay for catching a 2nd cut on the Great Dot! The Mompos arrives tonight. This is the first time I have ever simultaneously ordered 2 sizes. I just hope I don't see what that One Star Anthro Reviewer did.
Should have a review up by Friday at the latest.
Wish Me Luck!

I also got the color-dipped mini skirt from a few months ago (hoping it goes the way of the Field Game and gets a second cut within the PA period) and I managed to nab a random Field Game Cardi for only $10! Of course I couldn't pass that up :-)
I'll be returning a few items tomorrow and checking the sale stuff at a different location, so we'll see if that's any more successful! Chelsea Market sorely lacked jewelry.

I tried calling CS yesterday several times. The power was out, so the phone lines were down.
I'm trying to find a Pick A Bunch Cardi by Tabitha in Small. Along with a few other Long Shots.
I expected a sale last week. So I thought the Great Dot Maxi would get a second cut then. Much to my surprise, Anthro held out on us. Every few months they skip a week right before a new catalog is expected to come out. My timing was off.
Good luck on your Anthro treasure hunt JG. It must be fun to have so many Anthro's to scavenge.

The Pick a Bunch cardi is so pretty, and at a great price right now. Hope you find it. Anthro definitely switched things up with their sale timing. It always surprises me when items get a second cut within three or four weeks from the initial sale date. It really does seem to punish those who diligently shop the sales every Tuesday.
I loved reading your haul! Sounds like you got some great pieces, even if you were a little bit naughty. :-)
Mandy · 730 weeks ago
I am oogling your sale haul and cannot wait for reviews - the Maeve dress was on my wishlist, but I wanted the Martagon more (and when it didn't get a second cut, I had to make a decision this week!). Perhaps, if your review is favorable, one will be around for me to snag in a week or two. :P And that rose cardi? I hope you get it! It would be beautiful on you!
Have a great one, Laura! :)
