let me count the ways

Image via the Anthropologie catalog

I just finished perusing the newest Anthropologie catalog and it is just lovely. Real People; Real Places: Paris, New York, London. I love the ‘seen on the street’ vibe that is very reminescent of my favorite blog indulgence, The Sartorialist.

The image above appeals to me for many reasons: the layering that is so essential for the transitional weather we experience most of the year here in Houston, the lace-up boots (see my most recent blog post) and the precious bike that reminds me of the newest addition to my wish list (see here). And, of course, the sillouette. For those of you so inclined, get your leggings ready. Yep. Even bigger that the last couple of seasons. If you are not inclined, no worries! Thank goodness we are not all the same and we get to show off our many different attributes. You can take you cue from the waist up here: the soft ruffle details on the top, the rolled sleeves on the cardi, and the pop of color will all draw the eye up.

Are you working on your Fall list, yet?
