Anthropologie

Love anthro even though their stuff is a bit pricy. This location is good. The staff is always welcoming and helpful!

Even though Anthropologie is ridiculously overpriced 99% of the time (Come on, everyone knows it!) I do buy a really great piece every now and then here that I tend to get a lot of use out of.
What I really like about visiting the store vs. shopping online is the customer service. Anthro knows what’s up in the customer service field with the greeting of customers, «Can I help you with anything?», etc. etc. Even if the lovely ladies working here hate their jobs, they sure don’t act like it. Service with a smile is what’s up.

Depends on what staff member you get to deal with there…

the sales room can be fab, i must admit. though flouncy, frilly can really go overboard here. and sometimes you have to fight angry, princeton moms through the sales racks.

I spent so much time here during my stressful last semester of grad school. Retail therapy courtesy of my bank account.
I was in there so often that when I’d walk down the street, I could point out clothes people bought at anthro. I almost felt embarrassed seeing the same sales people in there week after week, but they were always friendly and helpful. There was only one time that a girl said she went to the back to look for a size and said they didn’t have it — I didn’t believe her and sent someone else to look for it. The other employee found what I was looking for. Always double check.
The store is cozy, cutely decorated, and has a pretty large selection compared to other anthro stores.
The sales rack helped not totally break the bank. But, omg, this store is my absolute favorite. Unique clothes. Yes, they are expensive, but they are not run-​of-​the-​mill outfits and you’re paying for quality.

I must say, I shop there an awful lot so they see my face often enough to know me and treat me well. I guess it helps when you walk in wearing most of the store’s merchandise.
PROS:
–Lovely staff of helpful, informative, cheerful ladies.
–Everything is wonderfully placed, there is a sale section in the back instead of having sale items scattered about.
–Unique pieces often nicely thrown together for the fashion-​tarded.
CONS:
–The shoes are online so I end up frustrated returning what doesn’t fit.
–Unimpressive selection of accessories in general. If you’re a big accessory fan then you may have to check out the website.
Happy Shopping!

If you aren’t willing to spend, go to the sale racks. Usually you can find good stuff.
But if you’re set on something, get it before it’s gone or come back often to check the price… things go fast if they’re pretty!

This store is the only time it’s okay to spend $ 88 on a pair of pants or $ 100+ on a dress.
I absolutely wish everything in this store was more within my budget, but the clothes are so pretty that I don’t really mind too much (and the on-​sale room in back routinely throws a few choice finds my way). The staff has always been friendly, helpful and approachable, and has the uncanny ability of knowing exactly when I’d rather be left alone and when I feel like talking my fool head off to a complete stranger.
Yep. Definitely one of my favourite clothing stores ever. I just need to find one around me now that I don’t pass the Marketfair location anymore. :(
