Oh wow! That's fantastic! I don't know how I missed them, but that's great news. Yay! Thanks for letting us know! :)

Just a quick note: the green dropwaist mini DOES have pockets. I didn't know or notice this until after I'd bought it and taken it home (even though the model on the Anthro website has her one hand in a pocket), but was super thrilled to discover that it did have them :)

When I first saw the green Dropwaist Mini on the website,I was wondering who it would look good on,and I have to say I love it on you!

I have the Embossed Basket Dress in Black and I have to say that it's wonderful and comfortable to wear!! I love the green version and will be tempted to buy it when it goes sale too. The Dropped Dots Dress is so cute but like you I was unable to zip my normal 0.....I blame it on the shape of the dress (haha) It's too bad because I love the polka dot print and back cut. The Draped Snail in Pink looks SO cute on you!!

I have been more inspired lately with Anthro (ITA last year was a bust, but thankful for my credit cards/wallet!). I LOVE that Drop Waist Mini on you, until I saw the back. eek. I don't like how they're doing a lot of weird back stuff...

I can't justify even trying on the Embossed Basket Dress because I already jumped the gun and bought the Noon & Night Dress over the summer. But I do like the blue, green and ivory colorways. The Dropwaist Mini seems like such a fun dress, but the open back is a turn off for me. You look adorable in it btw with the boots and tights! And that mystery Maeve skirt is driving me crazy!

Yay! Thanks for the fresh reviews, Carol! They are so useful for us girls living in non-Anthro towns :)
Merci Beaucoup!

I recently saw the swing away dress and liked it on the hanger...not sure how it would look on me and I didn't try it on. I think I would consider for sale time. The embossed green dress I have eyed too but don't love enough to buy at full price. I am hoping that Anthro gets back to their styles that brought me in originally!

The Dropped Dots Dress definitely runs small--I'm between a 0 and a 2 these days in Anthro dresses, and couldn't zip up either one. The 4 zipped, but was too big in the armpit area.

You tried on some cute things! Love the color and shape of the goji dress, too bad that the back won't work for you. The dropped waist mini dress is adorable as well. I really like that color on you.

The back cut of the dropped dots dress is awesome,...

2012-01-15T09:48:08.420-08:00

The back cut of the dropped dots dress is awesome, but I just don't like the cut overall- something about the transition from the waist to the gathers just doesn't feel right? But the snail tank is lovely (I would stitch it up too...it's such an impractical urban-outfittersy-detail) especially the printed silk which I can aways support! I think the sail away looks really pretty and different, and if anyone could make it work it's you! I could totally see it with your fabulous clogs!

I suppose it's a good thing that much of the current roll-out doesn't tempt me because I was totally sucked into far too many of the summer/fall items and ravenously acquired everything in those mondo pre-christmas sales!

2012-01-15T09:30:51.701-08:00

The open backs make some of things a "no go" for me because I can't wear then w/o a cardi or cami. Sad bc I love the snail print. I'm also not one for the drop waists on many of the skirts. I'm excited by the Palma dress, so I have my eye on that pretty!

I agree, I spent less time in the latter part of 2011 in the Anthropologie dressing room, but it looks like I may have to visit more often. I'm really intrigued by the Swing Away Dress and the Embossed Basket Dress is so classic, I can see it being a staple in anyone's closet.

2012-01-15T07:35:42.767-08:00

The Embossed Basket Dress is my favorite on you! Thanks for the reviews! I'm definitely eying the Dropped Dots Dress, and good to know it runs small.

I've got the dropwaist mini wishlisted for a sale already, and you just confirmed that it should stay on that list. I never pay full price for my clothes anymore. :-) my favorites on you are the dropwaist mini and the swing away dress. Both play off of your petite figure so nicely.

2012-01-15T04:47:41.622-08:00

I love the whole new dropped waist they have going on with their dresses. That's something I loved about the fit and cabled sweaterdress, too. I don't think those snails would bother me at all either...after all, I have the dog trot cardi and those dogs and I are like best friends! Love seeing these reviews, Carol. I live very, very far from an Anthro store, so I don't get to try stuff on and these really help.

2012-01-15T03:06:03.626-08:00

I hadn't noticed, actually, until now that the Dropped Dots Dress has fairly similar shape to the Embossed Basket Dress. I'm short waisted too, so I'm almost hoping that this dress won't work on me - I've got polka dots coming out of my ears!

I think the Draped Snail Tank looks fab on you, but splitting the back like that is completely inexplicable - what were they thinking?!

All the dresses have such sexy backs. http://www.thegirlieblog.com
