FRIDAY FANCIES

Talbots emailed links to their late summer collection.  I thought this top was cute (in a dark red)  buts its 100% polyester which isn't always the nicest fabric to wear.  Think I need  a safari to see and feel it in person before passing judgement:

Were you aware that Target has again partnered with Orla Kiely (and Belkin in this instance) to sell IPad and IPod cases?  The line was to debut last Sunday. When I went to check it out, NO ONE at my local Target had any idea of what I was asking about.  Same for a friend's local Target in suburban Chicago.   I returned to the store yesterday and the line is still not out.  I give up!  Obviously Target does not need me to give them my measly hard earned dollars (well maybe not hard earned but definitely measly).  Too bad because I have always loved Orla Keily's happy patterns:

Its time for the Nordstroms yearly Anniversary Sale where they put selected early fall merchandise on sale.  Look for my thoughts/frustrations about Nordstroms in Monday's blog post:

Went with a friend to see The Heat, new movie with Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy, very funny but I will say if you are easily offended by bad language, skip it:

Did you really think you would ever read Friday Fancies without my traditional Anthropologie favorites?  NO WAY, in fact just to mix it up a bit I am going to link to several items I like:

I saw this dress in person and the colors are absolutely beautiful:

Lets play one of my favorite shopping games:  If I was tall, thin and young I would definitely wear this (and yes there is tulle and in case you didn't know this, I LOVE TULLE ):
