Yuck, Anthro!
So the new Anthropologie catalog just went up online. It's "road trip" themed, as several other catalogs (in my collection) from previous years have been. This year's take is gross. The pieces lack charm, originality, or shape. The looks are boxy, sloppy, oversized, baggy, and deliberately but unattractively mis-matched. It's really a shame that they are moving away from the lovely, unique, structured and vintage-inspired looks that attracted me to their store to begin with years ago. It seems like it gets worse every season! Now the look is grungy and cheap, which just about matches the recent quality of the goods for sale. Don't even get me started on my year-long customer service ordeal with this company.
I'm thinking I might try to make a few shirts and skirts this year. At least I'll know they weren't made in a sweatshop and that they won't disintegrate when I wash them.
