I Tried Anthropologie’s Best-Selling Styles…
My friends have been shopping at Anthropologie for years, and they often tell me I “need” to give this retailer a try. They suggested two of their best-selling styles for me to start with. Anthropologie pieces are both beautiful and well-made, although they do tend to be on the pricier side of items that I share here. I knew I had to give them a try. Keep reading to see what I thought about their popular Colette Pants and their Somerset Maxi Dress!
Anthropologie Collette Pants
First, I am wearing the Colette Full-Length Wide-Leg Pants by Maeve. The gorgeous rose pink caught my eye immediately. I love the vibrant color and the flowy, wide-leg style. When I tried them on, I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable they were.
I was sold immediately by the review section on this product. Women LOVE the flattering fit of these pants, and review after review labeled them the “Perfect Pant.” I have to say, I agree! They fit so well, and I’m wearing my usual size 29. You can also grab these in a cropped version, which will be great once warm weather arrives!
I paired the pants with a Striped Cotton Button Front Shirt for a casual and dressy look. The pants could pair with so many different tops, like a navy or neutral-colored sweater while it’s still cool outside, or with a flowy blouse or tank this spring and summer. I wore these recently with a white tee and cardigan, and I got several compliments on them! The pants were perfect for my height (I’m 5’6″).
Anthropologie Somerset Dress
Next up, we have the Somerset Maxi Dress. It comes in several colors, but I selected the turquoise. You gurls know I love bright, happy colors, and I thought these stunning colors would be perfect for both spring and summer. I love maxi dresses for their comfort and versatility, but if maxi dresses aren’t your favorite, you can grab it in a shorter length.
When I tried on this dress, I was obsessed with the fit. You don’t usually see me using the word obsessed, because I’m only talking about clothing. I’m ruler-shaped, so I don’t have many curves. Plus, I hold my weight through my waist, so I don’t gravitate toward items with an elastic waist. This dress gave me curves and made my waistline appear smaller than it is. The material was light and airy, and the empire waistline was flattering. The dress also had pockets, which is always a plus. It looks stunning with heels or sandals, or you could even wear a cute pair of white sneakers to dress it down!
I can’t wait to wear this dress more as the weather warms up. I think it would be a great addition to your suitcase for a tropical vacation, perfect to wear to a wedding, or just a great piece to add to your wardrobe for church or dinner dates!
My conclusion…I really don’t like my friends right now. 🙄 They introduced me to a retailer that will be getting more business from me, which I’ll like, but my bank account won’t. Lol!

I love those hot pink pants, so I went shopping for a less expensive pair. I found them at Talbots as part of their Red Door sale🎉. They also had them in a Beautiful wine color, and I opted to get those instead, figuring I would get a lot more wear from them. I think that sale, which was awesome, ends today. If anyone is interested in these pants, be aware they run large and long. I went from my regular size 12 to a 10 petite.
Yes, I have these in black, and they are fabulous.
The dress and pants look very good on you. I am wondering if wide leg pants and tiered dresses make a person look bigger?
I think it depends on your body type. It will on some, but not on others.
I love the dre$$ ! I wish it wasn’t so expensive. Since I only wear dresses to church. it doesn’t make sense for me to spend a lot.
I’ve found a few similar versions. I think I’ll order those in to see how they look.
What fun for spring! I sure do love those pink or red pants for the sunny days to come. Thanks for featuring them.
The pink pants are my favorite! I like the style and price! The dress is gorgeous! I think the bright colors liven up the dreary months we’re in! I wouldn’t wait until spring to wear them!
Anthropology also has nice home decor you look so pretty in the dress!
I love the pink slacks, I think I’m a little short for such wide leg pants though.
I am loving the rose pink colors. A friend and I was window shopping this afternoon and I saw several outfits in this color. I will probably go back tomorrow and get the pants keep your fingers crossed that they are still available
Those pants look like they fit really well. I’m not sure how I feel about the dress. Maybe in a different color.
I love the new hair. It’s funky and very flattering
