6.20.13-
Out & about again today. This is one of those days I look forward to all year long.
My sweet friend, {Erika} & I head down to Anthropologie to use our birthday coupon.
{15% off your total purchase when you sign up for an Anthro card}
If you adore Anthropologie you should really have one of these cards. It's NOT a credit card it just signs you up for promational stuff, notification of sales & brithday coupons each year. My friend & I have been going down for 3 years now to celebrate our birthday month. Just walking around that store alone is a birthday treat for me. I just love it!! Such a creative energy & so much inspiration in that place. Oh, I'm on a high right now just thinking about it!
I took a few pics to capture our day at Anthro. with my iphone. {so sorry if the quality isn't the best}
Always love seeing a red sign with a 4-letter word on it. We luck out because June is the month of their sale so we get 15% off on top of that. {Cha-CHiNG!}
Any other June birthday girls out there?

| -I spy... our reflection in the store front windows!- |
Right when I walked into the store my breath was taken away... now I want 3 chandeliers all clustered together hanging in a room. Not to mention seeing all the bright & joyful colors it just does my spirit good & makes me happy!
{I really should go there every month for some inspiration & creative therapy}
Loved the top of this tablescape. Oh, how I wish I could have everything out & displayed so cute all of the time like this. Love all the yellow too- such a cheerful color.
Thought this shelf was cool looking. Maybe I'll have to show my hubby & see if he could make a similar one for our home. On the tag it said it was an old music shelf.
{maybe out of an old classroom or off of a tour bus or something}
Ok, I have admired, wished & adored this chair for years! When I saw the 20% sign on it I thought yes, this is the year {+my 15% extra off} hmmmm..... no. It would still be a $500 chair. Couldn't justify it. Wish it was more like 75% off & then it would coming home with me. I guess I'll keep on wishing & hoping for it one day. Love it!
 |
| -Seriously, so charming & cute! I just love it.- |
Saw this chair too {much better price but still a pretty penny} so cool! It looked like it was made of strip binding that had words on it. Very unique & one of a kind!
 |
| -That's my stash of goods on the chair. Had to free up a hand to take a picture- |
Took this picture of a Puffin cookie jar for my little girl. She loves Puffins!
Tons & ToNS of dishes, bowls, mugs & glasses for sale. I have to say this year was the best selection by far of sale stuff. Do bad I didn't just stick to buying from this table ;)
Always love their collection of jewelry. So glittery, sparkly & colorful. Had to pieces in my hands but decided to get something else instead. I got a necklace last year that is still one of my favorites to wear.
Here is my purchase {minus one charming book titled, Just being, Audrey} Nothing big this time around & no clothes or shoes. I just went with what I was drawn to that made me excited. I also got a charming book titled, {Just being, Audrey} I had to get it for my Audrey at home. It's about Audrey Hepburn & the illistrations in the book are adorable. It was being rung up at the time of the picture.
 |
| -So excited with what I got: 6 new Latte bowls that were on sale, an adorable wire candle holder that I can't wait to use, a cookbook that I've wanted for a LoNG time & a fun Summertime activity for my girls- learning a new big word a day- |
I even signed Mace up for her own Anthro card today because as my friend & I were walking around the store we would say things to each other like, "Macey would look so cute in that!", "How cute would this be for Mace" & "Macey would love that!!" So now she can come on her birthday month & maybe find something fun.
 |
| - I can't tell you how A.MaZ.iNG this cookbook is! Alright, I'll be honest I got it mostly to look at the pictures but it is so worth it. I've followed Katie's blog for quite awhile now & am always intrigued & inspired by her photography. She truly is an artist & makes food & entertaining look so delightful! Glad to have this now in our home to look at & enjoy. I'll let you know what I make out of it- We ended off the day with a trip to Restoration {Of coarse} & lunch at Blue Lemon {my favorite!} We decided to share so I got the Black Bean Ravioli & Erika got the Mango Mint Chicken Salad {thanks to a recommendation by my friend Brooke that I saw while waiting in line} So glad she hustled over from her gig at Studio 5 just in time for me to see her. So fun! Love a happy day spent with a happy friend. Happy Birthday my dear friend, can't wait to go again next year! {M} |
