And without further ado...my outfit of the day. I was unsure if I really loved this skirt when I bought it, but the fact that I've reached for it over and over again is assuring me that I made the right choice. It's just such a great summer option! Can't you tell by my face? What do we think?

We are a similar size/shape so I love seeing your reviews and stylings...its easier to picture it on myself.

One of the many reasons I visit your site is because I love that you take an item and wear it again in a different way, showing us you don't have an endless closet!
Happy Birthday to your lovely blog!

Thanks for the giveaway! I like visiting your space because I like your style and I especially like where you take your pictures- I'm guessing it's your yard? I live in the city in an apt and summers are brutal not having outdoor space with the exception of a roof (where we actually do bbq)
:)

I love how you put things together and you often try on pieces I had never considered before - bad for my wallet, good for my closet! Case in point - I LOVE today's outfit!
Thanks for the lovely giveaway - I'm in!
Lisa @ respecttheshoes(at)live.com
I love how you put pieces together and make them cute but not "just like the catalog". Also, I have many of the same items you do and like to get a little inspiration!

I like the way you put items and colors together - your style is classic but still unique ... without being over the top. I also love your fitting room reviews - it is SO helpful to see clothes on a real body!
thank you for hosting a giveaway. :)

Mostly I love your style and to see your creative outifts. But, there is a part of you that also reminds me of the younger me. Back when I had a career and before kids...there are brief moments I miss those days. Not to mention, you get to Anthro more often than I do and I love the reviews!

I visit your blog because you always have such cute outfits and I get inspiration from you!
christinewhetstine@gmail.com
Yay! Thanks for the contest. I found your blog when you did a guest review at Effortless Anthropologie. The reason it "stuck" and I kept coming back (AND added it to my bloglovin group) is because you seem to be built somewhat like me so your reviews are extremely helpful to me, you appear to be a fun lovin' gal and that makes me smile and the cherry on top is to find out you are from Spokane were I currently live and I am from Portland where you currently live! KARMA! Ha. Please include me in your contest entry. brynnepoo@yahoo.com XXOO Brynne
I love reading and follow your blog because you have a great sense of style and share a love for my favorite store!!
Thanks for the chance!

tsujessicalaw@yahoo.com
I really love your fitting room reviews. The photos are close up and clear and I don't have to get out my magnifying glass to see details. I love it! I always enjoy them and they are very helpful :) so thank you!!
lindseyewells {at} gmail
Happy blog birthday! I look forward to your review posts because they are short and to the point (something I need to work on!) and we're the same size, so if I'm not sure what size to get, it's nice to be able to come here for the answer. I also get endless outfit ideas from your OOTD posts and like how you throw in styling posts too every once in a while. Basically I love everything about your blog :) Oh and I'll be on my honeymoon next week, so I won't be able to see if I won or not, so I don't know if that automatically disqualifies me or not...
aras1221@yahoo.com
I love your blog for your lovely outfits. Plus I own many of the same items as you, great taste:) Thanks for doing the giveaway!

I personally like your style and creativity with outfits. I also think you are quite funny- the watching the grass grow post comes to mind ;) The reviews also are nice to read :)
I've been following you for quite a while now :P

I read many "Anthro-blogs" for many different reasons. Yours is one of my favorites as I also live in the Portland area and feel a connection to you while I read each post. Of course, your outfits are darling as well!
Happy Blog Birthday!

thanks for the giveaway! i love your blog because out of all the fashion/anthro blogs you have the closest style to my own (or, at least, to what i am slowly aspiring to... haven't quite gotten there yet!).
it doesn't hurt that you are also my same size so i get to see how things look w/o trying them on myself!
srochmes at gmail.com
Great contest! I love reading your blog because we are similar in build and wear the same size in most items, so when you fitting room reviews, I usually know what will work on me and what won't. Plus, we tend to wish list all the same items! And, you're darn cute! Thanks for the contest.
mollyfordhansen at gmail dot com
I love to read your blog bc of the given- your style! But also the way you write. I liked how recently you admitted you were trying to downsize your closet some and would only buy items on sale in your Wish List and you sell items in my size ; ) Also I liked the link to your old blog about getting married and date nights, decorating and organization. It is all stuff that interests me, whereas just not only being dedicated to one store or one theme. I found your blog bc Anthroholic featured you in her reader outfits update.
Not to mention you have great hair!
I love this giveaway. I am relatively new to your blog but in short - I love your style. It makes me wish I lived closer to vintage shops, a few more parks and and had a talent for mixing patterns. Plus you're adorable.

hannahbananaxp(at)gmail(dot)com!
I love your blog because the way you style your outfits inspires me to try more things I wouldn't normally do with my outfits. I love to see your ootd and dressing room reviews. It helps me to get opinions about the clothing and decide if I might want to buy something also.
Thanks for all your hard work!
tracyentry at gmail dot com
Great Contest! I think your blog is so fantastic because your personal spirit and style are so much fun and seem to jump off the page. Your fitting room reviews come in very handy because you tend to pick up pieces that I like a lot, offering helpful advice for when I'm far from stores!
kimby1209@gmail.com
Thanks for this opportunity! I love your blog for so many reasons..... First, your style and your outfits you put together are so amazing! I realize I have options when I see what you put together. Second, your hair is just so darn cute I can't stand it! Lastly, (and most important in my opinion) your blog entries are just so adorable! I can just tell you have a real zest for life and I really appreciate that in people :0). Please continue with your passion it is such a pleasure to read!
