AnthropoloChic.That's what i call my style......
when i coined the phrase about a year ago.
Don't worry...
you are free to use it also....
it's not like i had it licensed or copyrighted...
nope...
it's not like i had it licensed or copyrighted...
nope...
it's up for grabs for you ....
So far....
Anthropologie has not called me with a conflict of interest...
nope...
they have not.
I'm nervous though...
because they might be angry with me when they read this.
Shall i say it again...
just to make sure you all heard it...
AnthropoloChic.

Oops...
i hear the phone ringing in the background..
so hold on a minute.
tick
tock
tick
tock
tick
tock.
I'm back....
so glad you are still here.
It was not Anthro headquarters..
whew...
it was the hubby though.
Finally....
and he is having a great time in Hong Kong...
so glad he took a minute to check in.
Anyhoo...
he told me i could do a little shoe shopping...
{at least that's how i heard it....i'm pretty sure he didn't say glue..}
as long as i didn't spend too much money.
Well.....
dang...
because i just spent some cash on the cleaning ladies...
so that means i don't have a whole heck of a lot left....
for shoes....that is.
Don't you fret ...
at least i didn't...
because i found some pretty fabulous.....
oh so fabulous..
shoes...
t-straps mind you.....
ruffly t-straps...
and i couldn't not let you know all about them.
that would be so rude...
So.... you probably want to know where i might have gotten these...
maybe...
maybe not.
I know a few of you made some resolutions that you wanted to start adding
a bit more femininity to your wardrobe...
and i just wanted to add that you don't have to wear them with tights......
i mean...
if you lived here.....
in the awesome midwest...
it's a balmy 10 degrees......
on a good day.
I would wear these with some wide leg jeans......
or even cuff your normal jeans with these...
possibly a skirt...
then wear them with some knee highs.
I'm just giving you some idea's...
or..
maybe you want me to tell you about the boot camp class i went to last night......
then ordered pizza..
came home with the children and watched biggest loser.
Or....
possibly.....
i could tell you about the house i went to look at today...
a far cry from my beloved farm...
but no.. i won't...
not today.
why?....
because i want you to...
Run.....
don't walk....
Did you hear me girls....
run.....
because i just know they won't last long...
but i found these..oh...so...fabulous shoes..
anthropoloChic
style shoes.. at T.J. Maxx.
and the best part is...
they were only $25.
so i grabbed two pairs...
which means i saved money.
Don't you just love when you save that type of money....
Bryan will be so proud!

Wow...looks like I'm the first commenter. :) The shoes are fabulous. I just love TJMAXX....lots of bang...little buck. GREAT FIND. I have 3 TJ's within a 10 mile radius. Let's just say it's a wonderful, yet scary thing. **wink*
Got to Love TJ,Haven't been in there in a few months. Kids are back to school next week, so I think a visit will be in order. so cute, xo
WE have the exact same logic when it come to saving money!! Who knew there were TWO of us amazingly smarty and thrifty types? Our husbands must appreciate us pointing out how we are SAVING them money... I know I would! Way to go. Heh, heh.
Hmm...cute! Wonder if I could justify the purchase if I have a similar pair w/ a higher heel in black? Yes - yes I can! The heel height is the key.
(Thanks for helping me figure that out!)
P.S. Boot camp negates the pizza, so you're good. At least, that's the logic my girlfriends and I used tonight when we had an ice cream cone after a long walk around the neighborhood this afternoon! :-)
oh dang girl..those are fabulous...why do you torture those of us that live 3 hours away from any kind of TJMaxx?!?! or am i the only one that lives in the middle of nowhere??
i tried to explain to my hubby that i was saving him money by wanting the $4000.oo leather couch instead of the $6000.00 one that i had first picked out...very thirfty of me i thought...needless to say all that i got was the eye ball roll... ;0)
...Oh Kasey! I totally seen these shoes at TJ's! But it was like a year ago, did you see them recently? I tries them on too, and contemplated on getting them....but didn't :(
I'm all about saving $$$ too this year, my hubby and I are headed to Germany for a couple weeks next fall. I'll be doing the same, hiding my Anthro card and searching for some Anthro knock-offs, just like yourself!
Thanks for all the great tips.
<3~michelle.f
Fabulous post and amazing shoe find!!!! So chic, so Anthro! So Anthrochic!!!!
I love it :)
xoxo
Judith~
I'm taking notes!! so I can save money too :) Too stinkin' cute, that's what those shoes are :) Love the ruffles and little heel. I'm on my way to TJ Maxx.
Toni
Love those tights. The color on the shoes a gorgeous. They even look comfy..TJmax rocks! lulu
I would have loved to see the whole outfit. Those shoes and leotards are so adorable.
*two* pair? and cleaners? and a different house? Well, at least your sassy shoes will look fabulous in gay Paris!
xx
Oh Kasey, it is so good to be back! I missed you, my fashion-forward chic!
I am a freak for Anthro...a whore, actually...but I won't say it out loud. It's a sickness, because when you think about it, $168 for a dad-gum sweater is freakin' ridiculous...but no one on the planet (b/c we do live on Planet AnthropoloCHIC, right?) makes stuff the way they do. They just KNOW
WHAT
THEY'RE
DOING...
Unless, of course, we get lucky and stumble across fabulousness at TJ's...b/c that does happen every once in awhile..or so I've heard.
You are charming :)
Lara
Isn't it funny how over the years of changes in styles, we gals just keep pulling the ruffles back into style?! We must all be pretty girly at heart! I too love TJ Maxx..it is my most favorite store, I could spend hours in there, just looking at everything! Great job...super cute shoes..he will be so proud! Come say hi :D
Love the text, love the shoes, love the price..... and so will your husband !! I think that they will look very nice in France. Very French Chic, and a bargain to boot (oh, I made a joke...boot...shoes.... Haha) XXXX
Well living in Poland I assumed all TJ shoppin was over. Out for a stroll with the hubby in a local mall and there it was!!! TKMAXX, the European sister of TJ Maxx. I could have thrown a happy dance right there :)
LOVE your new shoes and your TIGHTS!
Hugs,
Rhonda
TJMaxx and I have a date tomorrow.
Xoxo
Those shoes are fabulous....I love TJ Maxx...I have spent (saved) many a dollar there...:)
Fabulous shoes - you see Mary Janes all over here in Paris (and boots). And of course, you had to get two - brilliant!
I had a feeling you were going to say that. Too cute! I'm off th Antho today when my daughter gets out of school. She made me Prooomise to take her. I said I guess so(trying not to be to excited). She has a gift card from Christmas. Hope the sales are good!
Score! Those are super cute...I really like that first color...but I know I will get to my TJMaxx and they'll be all gone. They're too cute.
Super cute shoes! If I were a shoe lover, I would HAVE to have those!
I'm il love with this shoes! Happy 2010 darling!!!
Love those shoes! What a bargain ;O)
France, are you serious? Let me know. B xoxox
too cute and as everyone else said Gotta love that TJ Maxx!
blessings on your day, b
I love your writing, I love your shoes, and I personally love that you share your fashion advice as well!!
ditto...everything adrienne said. You are sooo funny..and love the shoes!
I'm suppose to be painting and no you had to distract me with your sweet shoes! really you are a terrible influence on me!!!
back to painting i go... thinking of your shoes... and when i can run to the nearest store,
xo,
LuLu
Tj Maxx rocks! Love the shoes...they look exactly like a pair I saw at a litte french style clothing boutique called LaRueMarche...but they were waaaay more than $25! Good find! ~mary~
Old Navy has a very similar pair right now, much higher heels though! Very cute, I didn't bring them home, even though they were on sale so like $15 each... feel free to smack me! I've been regretting it ever since!
These are just gorgeous!! Totally loving them!
Fantastic shoes, super cute and just your style. I would have bought 2 pairs also. My husband wouldn't get the logic in that they were cheaper because they were at TJs. He would think there are 2 new pairs to fit into the closet, lol. Love the tights with them.
Megan
TJ Maxx is my savior! I love the bargains I find there!
You are so funny, Kasey. Love the shoes. TJ Maxx is awesome. Have a fabulous day!
Shawn
haha Good girl!

Love
with
those...
SHOES!!!!!
I would love it if you would show us how you put together a whole outfit. I especially would like to see how you incorporate boots into your wardrobe. Maybe you could do a "Wardrobe Wed."
LOVE that TJ gal! She frickin rocks.
Fabulous shoes...so cute with the tights, too:) If I didn't live in a "winter storm warning" area right now, I'd grab my keys & drive straight to TJ Maxx to get a pair!
I have those shoes too! Yep, TJ Maxx special! I wanted the grey ones, but they didn't have my size. :-(
Stylish and comfortable too!
Those stockings are adorable with them!
Polly

Diane T.
Thanks for the tip.. I am going there this afternoon :)
Sheila
Oh I am SO going to have to do some work on my wardrobe before April!!! You find the best things....and two pairs of them, you funny girl!!
You did make me laugh with your comment about Bryan...shoe/glue??!!
I am so glad that you are keeping busy while he is away....you are saving some pennies aren't you? Think of those French flea markets :) xo
today i wish i wore a size 9! i went to tj maxx and they had BOTH of those colors in size 9 only!!!! GRRR!!!!! love them!!!!!!!!
Those are fab romantic chic shoes, Kasey! I would listen to you, but there's no TJ Maxx here!
It seems, my dear Kasey-girl, that you are the queen of the good finds this week. First the slipcovers (I have not received mine in the mail yet, by the way...just sayin') and now those awesome shoes. Those shoes are darlinnnng, by the way...so are the tights.
Glad you are saving so much money!!
Love the new term ~ it's very fitting and so are those shoes!!! Oh my gosh...I LOVE them!!! I went there for the first time a few weeks ago. Before I had only seen it online. I was in heaven! What an amazing store!!! I had to wipe off the drool before leaving! Thanks for stopping by my blog. I've heard alot about you from Beth!
Oh, how adorably cute!! Love t-straps . . . love ruffles . . . love the tights. How funny, I posted about a great TJ Maxx find today too. Great minds??
LOVE the shoes!!! they are stinkin' cute and you have them worn so well with those tights...so glad you shared...because I was definitely needing {maybe wanting} some new ones:)
Have a wonderful day my dear...and keep on shopping for me:)
Bryan would most definitely be proud of his thrifty wife... Look at those sexy legs ;)
I totally love Anthro style but never in a million years would I pay their prices. Good for you on scoring the shoes! They are beautiful!
It would have been criminal to just get one pair :)
If you have a second stop by and enter my giveawaybif it interest you!
Kasey I got those exact grey shoes @ TJ's about 6 mos ago but they didn't have my exact size (1/2 too small)...they are so cute! I wore them a couple of times but just too tight...guess who(Ash) ended up with them! ha ha
Cute shoes that's my thing shoes and purses.
Those shoes are made for dancing! Love Love Love them.
Joyce
I honestly don't think you could be any cuter.
~hugs
You bargain shopper you ~ good work Kasey! They are too cure for words and you would have laughed at me because I am reading and then I see the last picture and the color looked off so I scroll up and back down then up and down ~ silly me ~ 2 pair = 2 different colors. It IS past my bedtime you know. Now you will have to go dancing when Bryan gets back. toodles.
hey, guess what I bought these for my 14 year old for Christmas!! the greenish colored ones. My 20 year old and I both fit in them too!!! I loved showing my girl your post on her adorable shoes!!!
I'm going tomorrow!
those are really cute. they look perfect on you. not sure i could pull them off. sometimes tj maxx is awesome. especially when you find a deal like this. glad your hubby is having a great time in hong kong.
Wow--thanks for the tip. You are an official good deed do-er. You know where else is a great place *occassionally* for anthro shoes: eBay. I kid you not. I got pair of my fav peep toes, in the anthro box, on eBay for... drum roll..... $16. Can you stand it?? Here are some pics from shoes I got from Anthro on Ebay a few yrs ago...

I love how you bought two pairs and I am so happy he called. I always hate waiting for "the" call when hubby is away, blah.
Kasey, You are my kind of girl.
The shoes will be perfect in France and you saved money. Whoo hoo.
Very cute shoes! Great find! I just bought myself a ruffle purse, I can't wait to use it! Love ruffles!!!
ok...traveled an hour to tj...no unbelieveably, cute adorable ruffled shoes!! You and a lucky woman!!!!
Love them!!!!! I want to go right now to TJ Maxx!!! can't go ,we are in the middle of a snow blizzard in Kenosha!!!! Maybe this weekend!!!!! Love the tight too!!!! Sara
I have the green shoes just like that from Anthro. So cute!
Tres charmant! Love the shoes and the whole dang blog. I'll be visiting often.
Anthro-stle w/Target price...love, love, LOVE!!!
that was SUPPOSED to say Anthro-STYLE...but you get the gist. LOVE them!
So cute Kasey! Did you get the other pair for me?!? You always seem to find such great things. I need to shop with you.
These are adorable! I may have to do some online shopping.
Kasey, you are just awesome. Those shoes are incredibly cute, I just don't think they would look nearly as cute on me and those tights, oh my! Love them. You have some good taste, my friend!
I am not a real "girly girl" dresser. I am usually a blue jean, sweater, leather messenger bag draped across my body kind of girl. But, I do love these shoes. They are great. And, I love TJ Maxx, but I have to drive 45 minutes to get there and in this weather, it's just not going to happen. So...I figure by the time I could get there, all of those lovely shoes will be gone. I will just admire your photos of them.
LOVE! Did you get them recently? What is the brand?
These are SO cute!!!!!
SCORE!!! 2 different TJ's....2 differenta directions.....but, am now sporting the shoes in brown! Nothing like being obsessed with something...seeing it through!
I am SOOOOO sad! I went to TJM and they didn't have the shoes. NONE of them! I need to check another one, maybe they will have some there. They are so adorable AND the heel isn't too high. BOO! :( Glad you found some for yourself, though.
Kimmie in TX :)
I HAVE those shoes!!! The pewter ones. Just bought them last week at...yes, T.J. Maxx! I almost bought the fuschia ones, too. So hard to resist. I'll be wearing my pewter ones, thinking of you!
I bought these shoes on your recommendation and got three compliments the first night I wore them!
Thank you for the heads up on adorable shoes. I went shopping Saturday morning and they happily had one pair left in brown - and in my size. They must have been meant to be. Love your blog and stories. They are always so fun to read!
AnthropoloChic is a great word!! I may borrow it on my blog!
