Hey everyone! Happy Friday! Any plans for the weekend? Not too much here. Just working out and relaxing with my boyfriend. He finally comes back into town again tonight! I hope you all enjoy your Friday and weekend! :)

Good evening everyone! Since my boyfriend has been in and out of town the past month, I've been spending some time at home with family. Tonight I went to Mikuni Sushi with my Mom, younger sister and Grandma and oh was it so so yummy! I've been working out hardcore for about 4 weeks straight now and I've only had a couple "bad" days. I don't feel too bad though since I worked out for 2 hours before I went to sushi tonight. Only thing about working out super hard and then eating a big meal...you just want to veg out and do nothing! :) I hope you all are enjoying your night!

Good afternoon everyone! Did you hear that Anthropologie is introducing their Wedding Line BHLDN on February 14, 2011? I wonder if it stands for "Beholden?" Oh my goodness...I'm so excited! I've been waiting for years and hearing rumors and it's finally here! Hrrmm...I wonder where I'm buying my wedding dress from?! :)

If you missed them, Reviews: Round 1 can be found HERE and Reviews: Round 2 can be found HERE.

I'm starting a new rating system call "Must, Lust or Bust." It breaks down to "Full price purchase (Must), sale purchase (Lust) or a complete pass (Bust). I will be switching over next time but wanted to start integrating this now so you all can get used to it. Do you like this better or should I stick to "Full price, sale or pass?"

Now on to the reviews...


Here is Bailey 44's Graceful Drape Top. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. I love this top. It's super stretchy, comfortable, soft...really nothing bad about this top at all. The v-neck isn't too low so it's work appropriate. It is a little on the longer side as you can see from the photo as it hits past my hips. I only wish this came in other colors because I would buy a lot of them since they are just plain comfortable tees, with a cute little twist down the middle. The color is definitely more blue then the online photo color.

Wishlisted.

Pros: TTS, stretchy, comfortable, simple
Cons: Price, color different then on website, long
Verdict: B+
Full price (Must), Sale (Lust), or Pass (Bust): Definitely sale.










Here is Guinevere's Hiking Ruffles Cardigan. I've been wanting to try this on for quite sometime and glad I finally did. This fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. I really wanted to try this in purple or black but my local Anthro didn't have those colors. I really love the cascading ruffles down the front and the length and sleeve length is great. This can definitely be dressed up or down. It's also not too heavy and would be a good transition piece from Winter to Spring and early Summer.

Wishlisted in Purple and Black...maybe Ivory too. I can't decided which color I love more!

Here is Rainn's Mittaghorn at Midnight Blouse. This blouse fits somewhat TTS, but fits loosely. I'm wearing an XS. I really love the lightweight and design on the blouse. The roses are beautiful across the neckline and I love the dotted pattern. You would think it would be very sheer, which it is, but it comes with a little tank inside to help with the sheerness. I also am wearing a nude tank as well. I do like how the blouse fits loosely and how there are pockets in the front. The sleeves were also not too long, but I have them pushed up since the sleeves have elastic. The length is a little on the longer side.

A pass for me for now.
Rainn Mittaghorn at Midnight Blouse
Style# 20286803

Pros: TTS (somewhat), lace neckline detail, dot pattern, pockets
Cons: A little loose (can size down to you want more fitted), a little long
Verdict: B
Full price (Must), Sale (Lust) or Pass (Bust): A pass for me for now










Here is Left on Houston's Slouchy Stitch Pullover. It fits somewhat TTS. I'm wearing an Small and it's a bit loose. Of course it's supposed to fit like this though. Some women might be sized out of this one since this does not come in XS or XL. I love the asymmetrical cut on the bottom of the top and the crocheted weave pattern. It's very sheer and you can see right through it so you must wear something like a tank, cami or batheing suit underneath. I'm wearing a nude shelf tank. The one thing that was really weird about this top were the sleeve openings. It was really hard to put my hands over my head with this on since how the arm holes are cut and where they landed on me. Other then that, I think it's a great layering piece and can be worn many different ways.

Wishlisted.

Here is Moth's Jeweler's Choice Cardigan. This fits TTS. I'm wearing a Small. I size up in cardigans because of my chest and gapping. The length is a little on the shorter side. It hits just at my hips. If I were to put my hands over my head, the cardigan would hike up. I really love the heather brown color but those red embellishments or whatever they are look so tacky in person. They are sticking out in all different directions and I just think it makes the cardigan look bad. From far away it looks lovely, but up close it's a mess.

A pass for me.

Here is Edme & Esyllte's Springing Season Blouse. The blouse fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. I love the 70's vibe I get from this top with the color and flower pattern. I love how high cut it is which makes it work appropriate. The length is good as it hits just past the hips. It also is a little sheer. One thing I noticed is that some might not like how the sleeves are cut though. That's the only thing I didn't like about this blouse.

Wishlisted in Blue Motif.

Here is the Moth's Lundin Links Sweater. This sweaters fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS, but I could size up to a Small because of my chest. The length is a little short, but not too bad, as it hits just a bit past my hips. The sweaters is lightweight, stretchy and super comfortable. I also love the vibrant green color! The scoop neck is also not too low either so this is work appropriate. There is also a zipper in back, but I didn't even need to unzip. I just pulled the sweater over my head.

Wishlisted.

Here is 'Lil's Geometry in Motion Skirt. The skirt fits TTS. I'm wearing a 2. The skirt has no zipper and is pull on styling so you can size down if you wanted. I really like the folded material in the front and the sweater-like material that the skirt is made from. I don't like how it made me look wider then I am. I love, love, love the length too as it hits just above the knee. Sigh...I really wanted to love this!

A pass for me.

I have it paired with Moth's Lundin Links Sweater reviewed above.

Here is Edme & Esyllte's Green Mountains Skirt. I love this skirt! It fits TTS. I'm wearing a size 2 Regular. It was the last one in the sales room. I love the geometric pattern that resemble mountains in the different browns and greens. The skirt also has pockets which is always nice! The length is good as it hits just above my knee. This skirt is awesome and I really have nothing bad to say about it!

Wishlisted...I know....I should have bought it when I had my size but I'm trying to stay on budget.

Here is Moth's Neo-Refinement Pullover. This fits TTS. I'm wearing a Small since this doesn't come in XS (or XL). I love this top! It has an asymmetrical lay along the body, is lightweight and is super comfortable! It can be dressed up or down. I love how it is a bit oversized and flowy. Nothing bad to say about this top!

Here is Pilcro's High-Rise Flares. These fit TTS. I'm wearing a 25. I love these jeans! They are super comfortable and stretchy. The only thing that's a bummer about being so short is I would have to get these tailored. These are really flared and love that it's a different look then I have been wearing with my skinnies. I didn't even see these in the store and the SA suggested I try them on. Love them!

Wishlisted.

Here is Splendid's Lining-The-Field Scoopneck. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. The top fits a little loose as it's supposed to, so you if wanted it more form fitting, I would size down. I love the different colors and striped pattern. Oh I'm in love. You can wear this with so many different bottoms and shoes. Love it!

Wishlisted, but I want this now!

Here is the Two of Us' Back Porch Blouse. It fits somewhat TTS. I'm wearing a 4 here and I would stay with this size if I wanted to wear it completely closed and buttoned. If not, I would size down to my normal size 2. This top is gorgeous in person. It's lightweight, comfortable and the lace pattern is beautiful. The length is a little on the short side as it hits just at the top of my hips, but won't see a problem if you were wearing this with a skirt or a dress. It's very sheer, as you can see, but a perfect layering piece for Spring or Summer.

Wishlisted.

Here is Tiny's Sandia Peak Cardigan. It fits TTS. I'm wearing a Small but also tried on the XS and it also fit well. I love the sweater knit material and how comfortable it is. I also like how the front is shorter then the back. It makes the cardigan have more character and be more dramatic. The arm length is good as well.

Wishlisted in Ivory.

Here is Daughter's of Liberation's Subtle Survival Trench. This trench fits TTS. I'm wearing a size 2. I love the pattern on this jacket. It really reminds me of the Gust of Grey Blouse pattern. It's super comfortable and not too heavy. The length is good as it hits just past my hips. The tie is a perfect length too. One thing about this trench is the arm length is a bit on the longer side.

Now on to the reviews. Reviews: Round 1 can be found HERE. Round 3 is on its way, so stay tuned!


Here is Plenty by Tracy Reese's Decade-By-Decade Skirt. This skirt runs TTS. I'm wearing a size 2. After seeing this beauty on a few bloggers, I was excited to try it on. I really love the old-fashisioned fit and style of this skirt. It's a beautiful green/teal color and has a very lovely flower pattern. The length is on the longer side as it hits below the knee, but is perfect for this style of skirt. One thing I don't like about the skirt is the seam the runs down the middle of the skirt.

I have it paired with Pilcro's Who's-Got-The-Button Top. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. I really love the simplicity of this top. I can see wearing this with so many different outfits and pieces I already have in my closet. I also like how it's not a very low v-neck so it can be worn to the office or out for a night on the town.

Even though I love this skirt, it's a pass for me as for now. Top wishlisted in white.

Here is Edme & Esyllte's Amhara Skirt. This skirt fits TTS. I'm wearing a size 2. I was really drawn to the different colors of this skirt. It can be worn with so many different colored shirt, cardigans and blouses. It's very flowy, light weight and comfortable. The length is good as it hit just above the knee. I also really love the different designs incorporated into the waistband.

Definitely wishlisted.

Here is Moth's Top Brass Pullover. This sweater fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. I love everything about this sweater and wish it came in more then one color. The length is perfect as it hits just past the hips. The arm length is also not too long. Also, the button detailing on the shoulders is darling. It's comfortable and not too heavy which would be a perfect transition piece to Spring.

I want this so so bad...wishlisted for now.

Here is Pure & Good College Ruled Top. They only had a small at my local Anthro so that's why it looks a bit big. It does fit TTS and I would wear an XS. I absolutely love this top! I love how flowy and comfortable it is. Perfect to throw on with some jeans and boots or sandals. I really wish that I could get this in an XS. I would have snagged it up so quick! I also love how the shirt looks like a piece of paper. So different from anything I've seen in awhile.

Wishlisted in XS.

Here is Pilcro's Artist's Study Tee. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. I love how simple this tee it too. So comfortable, flowy and lightweight. This tee is casual looking but the stitching on the shoulder/chest area, dresses it up a big. I really like the cut of this tee as well; it's not straight across like most. The length is good as well as it hits just past my hips.

Love this! Wishlisted.

Here is Baraschi's How A Rose Grows Tank. This tank fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. This tank is very lovely and super comfortable. It's stretchy and flowy. I love the longer material to make it more dressy looking...very feminine and cute. The roses on the front as lovely as well. This can be dressed up with heels or boots or dressed down with flats. I think this would be cute belted as well.

Here is Girls From Savoy Sunny Safari Blouse. This blouse fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. I love the yellow and white pattern. The sleeve length is about 3/4, but I have them pulled up. It's a little on the shorter side I noticed. I falls just at my hips but if I move or put my hand up over my head, the blouse comes way up and doesn't stay in place. I think this might get annoying have to adjust the top constantly.

So so cute, but a pass for me for now.

Here is Bailey 44's Magnitism Top. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. I really like how light weight, flowy and comfortable this top is. I'm still not too sure about the long piece of fabric hanging down that far though. I think the asymmetrical folded and bunched cut is cute and feminine looking and can be dressed up or down.

Here is Elevenses' Femme Trench Coat. I absolutely love this trench! It fits TTS. I'm wearing a size 2. The sleeves fit me perfectly like this coat was made just for me! I love it. The color is a darker beige and can be worn over so many items. The only thing that is really a bummer is the belt is super long. I actually have it almost all the way around my waist and tucked in the back. I can always figure out a way to make it work though.

Here is Deletta's Palla Tunic. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an XS. I love the feminine look and feel of this top. It is a bit sheer, as you can see, but I'm wearing a nude AE Shelf Tank underneath, so that's what I would wear if I purchased this. I love how drapey and loose the material fits. Some might find the top too sheer and too long.
