Anthropologie Inspired!

There’s a huge Anthropologie store off Howell Mill Rd. here in Atlanta and I stopped in a few weeks ago to check it out.  It didn’t disappoint.  Possibly one of the largest that I’ve seen, they had a lot of goodies to see.

Enjoy browsing as much as I did! I met up with one of my long time decorating friends, Maureen, and we did a little shopping and then had lunch at a wonderful spot.

Anthropologie always has the coolest items, like these bird inspired dishes.

Love these huge bottles.

And a whimsical mirror caught my eye.

Love! Ironstone as planters.

Of course, they have some very unique knobs.  But, we all know where to get these too, right.  Hobby Lobby!

Always love their monogrammed coffee cups. These make great gifts! 

No, I didn’t get it.

Next stop was Figo, a wonderful Italian bistro off Howell Mill Rd.

Lots of great pasta dishes and super lunch specials. 

Broken plates as art.

Pasta behind glass.

My lunch.

And tiramisu for dessert.  Doesn’t get better than this!  I’m definitely going back to Figo again!

Do you love to browse Anthropologie too?  If you are in the Atlanta area, don’t miss this one down near Forsyth and Lewis & Sharon Fabrics.
Time to announce some winners!

So gorgeous! Love the colors and varied motifs. I guess my fave is the Dance of the Vines — the “custard yellow” background is subtle and happy. Thanks for introducing me to these beautiful textiles!

Congrats, ladies I’ve already emailed you both!

    I really like the way they displayed the bedspreads hanging on the hooks…not to mention I would love to have one of them!

    Thanks for sharing this with us. Anthro is so inspiring. I wonder if those vintage-y Coke crates were on sale or just part of the display?

    Well…that was certainly fun! I felt like I was shopping and browsing along with you.

    Such unique items in that store. I have heard the name, but didn’t know what they sold. If I ever see one, I will for sure go inside!

    You are lovely and that dress would have been great on you by-the-way!

    And lastly…the food looked yummy!

    I have never been to an Anthropologie store, but I’ve been to their site online. So thanks for taking me shopping there. That Italian restaurant looks like my kind of place, too.

    I think that I must be living under a rock and in no mans land, but I have never been there. After I read this post I am dying to google the nearest one to no mans land so I can go visit!

    Anthropologie is certainly candy for the eyes and if you take a look at our chairs you can see that we are definitely inspired by them. But I wonder who came first with colorful patchwork chairs..me or them? chicken and the egg?
