What is on my shopping radar for this upcoming pay check...

1. Wind Catcher Dress (Anthropologie, here)

Two of my close friends are getting married this summer (to each other) and I am a bridesmaid! Last weekend we were shopping at Anthro and she spied this dress from across the room and immediately proclaimed that this little beauty is exactly what she had in mind for her bridesmaids to wear. She is going with a whimsical theme for her wedding, and I think a more perfect dress will not be found. Imagine this lovely dress with gold strappy sandals. I graciously volunteered to play dress up and grabbed my go-to size. Unfortunately, this dress runs big and I was swimming in the 4. With no size 2 in stock, I left empty handed. Since then I have been stalking this dress. It is finally up on the website, and our downtown store will be getting them sometime next week. This is definitely a dress that I will wear again and again!

2. Ring Send Heels (Anthropologie, here)

I just about died when I saw these little shoes! I knew that they would not last long because they are so very very perfect, but I had no idea that my size would sell out less than 24 hours after they posted to the Anthro website! When I called Anthro to ask if they were planning to restock them they sadly said no. I may have shed a tear or two. But, I am a resourceful girl and I traced these little shoes to their source - the manufacturer. Now I am just waiting for pay day to make the purchase. Until then I will waiver back and forth between the two colors. I am leaning towards peach. Thoughts? Sigh, little shoes you will be mine in less then a week!

3. Archeologist Button-Up (Anthropologie, here)

Something about over-sized white button ups just make me giddy. They are so easy to wear with jeans (and I love my jeans) and sandals. I also love to dress them up with cool statement necklaces as seen in the picture to the left. This is a new arrival for Anthro, and I have yet to see it in my stores but I have my eye out. I won't pay $88 for this one, but you can bet that I will be diligently stalking this button-up till it goes half off.

 4. Drifting By Dress (Anthropolgie, here)

OMG. I am crazy for this dress! It is so pretty and feminine. And I really have nothing like it in my closet. I must own it. Actually, I must see it and try it on first. But after that, assuming it looks good on me, I must own it. I worry that this pretty little thing won't make it to the sale section. I would just hate to spend the full $168 (it is silk people!) just to see the price get slashed in half. I will try it on and if it works I will monitor the blog world to see how it is selling. If it looks like it will sell out, I will bite the bullet and purchase. I really don’t want to suffer through another Night Blooming Dress Fiasco. Really, I should have known that dress would never make it to the sale racks in my size. And now it is lost to me forever. Now I stalk the blogs and eBay for that dress. Never again, I vowed. Never again.
