Favorite Anthropologie Purchases

Anthropologie is one of my favorite store IRL, and online -- for clothes, accessories, and home.  I wait till there is a good sale, of course! Their dresses are my go-to choice whenever there is a wedding or "fancy" event. First dress I hope to wear for niece's wedding this year, God willing.

Birkenstock Shoes: Shopping in Germany

It's so ugly it's hip!
Was walking through the crowded Frankfurt Marketplace (just days before the even more crowded Frankfurt Christmas Market was to take place), when youngest Sis pointed out the store. Her teen daughter wanted a pair of authentic Birkenstocks.  Her knockoffs were from Target, eeek. 
Went into stoew with them. Whoa. Why was I never a fan till that moment?! ('coz I had thought of them as too stodgy, that's why).

Thanks to the help & suggestions of son's hip college-aged friend, pictured in the plaid dress below, I am now a first-time Birkenstock owner.  Purchased  an Arizona in black patent at a discount (approx. $67 vs $99 in USA). 

Unbeknownst to me, teen Niece also chose an Arizona.
