Anthropologie and Liberty a Heavenly Collaboration

 

Anthropologie and Liberty are collaborating! Say what?

A few weeks ago I was made aware of what I considered to be a ‘heavenly’ collaboration between two of my favourite brands…

 

Liberty for Anthropologie

Anthropologie and Liberty a Heavenly Collaboration

 


“…Now please dont think I’m bragging in anyway, I’m just terribly excited and very lucky I do realise, to have been given something I would love to have bought but actually couldn’t afford right now…”


 

Not only that but imagine then how excited I was when one of those brands actually contacted little old me and asked if I would like to make a list of a few things that had caught my eye from that very collaboration?! Well it was Christmas come early. (If I was writing this on instagram I would insert an air fist pump emoji at least five times)

Now please dont think I’m bragging in anyway, I’m just terribly excited and very lucky I do realise, to have been given something I would love to have bought but actually couldn’t afford right now. I’m sure you would feel the same? Of course a blog post was in order in return, I hope you don’t mind.

 

 

Anthropologie and Liberty a Heavenly Collaboration

Anthropologie my story and their history:

Now I have been an ‘Anthro girl’ since I first discovered the brand in America years ago in the mid 90’s! At that time I had just bought my own flat in Brighton. I was broke and could only dream about shopping in store. I consider I have ‘grown up’ with Anthropologie the clothes the homewares, we have evolved together.

Their stores are wonderlands of inspiring and stylish products, their window dressing is legendary (did you ever see the whale?) Even if I can’t afford a dress I can always afford a cup or a candle, therefore I rarely leave the store empty handed.

I was recently shopping in the Orlando store with my Mum, she purchased a beautiful necklace for her friend. (Her friend is in her fifties and my Mum is in her 70’s) thats what I call a superb store one that caters for everyone of any age with a sense of original style and uniqueness.

 

Anthropologie and Liberty a Heavenly Collaboration a lazy daisy jones Review

Anthropologie

“…Anthropologie was founded by current URBN chairman and president Dick Hayne, having heard the plea of a friend. She had just moved to the suburbs of Philadelphia, and was dissatisfied with the shopping options available to her. She longed for a store to indulge her creative side. Dick, realizing this wasn’t an isolated phenomenon, went on to build a lifestyle brand that catered to creative, educated and affluent 30-45 year-old women. Named after his college major (but with a decidedly French twist), Anthropologie opened its very first doors in the autumn of 1992 in Wayne, Pennsylvania. They now operate over 200 stores worldwide…”

Dick Hayne I salute and thank you from the bottom of my Anthro heart, but then I sincerely doubt you will ever read this?

 

Liberty

Everyone knows and loves Liberty in my world, the store the fabric, the history, the creaking stairs! I think it is one of the most beautiful stores in the world, and I’ve shopped at quite a few!

Liberty for Anthropologie

A quote from the website…

“Guided by his vision to create fashion that eschewed the trends of his time, Arthur Lasenby Liberty created the iconic Liberty London in 1875. Still housed in its original mock-Tudor building on Great Marlborough Street, the brand is widely known for the eclectic prints that define its line of luxury fabrics, accessories and home goods. A time-honored haven for those with a penchant for ornamentation, Liberty has formed a legacy rooted in its exceptionally crafted designs and its decidedly British sensibilities…”

They have produced bedding, some beautiful furniture and these ceramics too…

The Ceramic Cup and Bowl Designs:

 

Bonnie Bloom: inspired by an archived design from 1989, this traditional Liberty print delights with a thicket of dense wildflowers. Wiltshire Berry: originally designed in 1939, this classic Liberty print - with its repeating leaf and berry pattern - is a well-loved motif with decades of history. Nina Taylor: originally designed for a seasonal collection inspired by William Morris's poem, "Earthly Paradise," this hand-drawn sandalwood print recalls the charm and beauty of the visible world.

 A sad note to end my story…

Unfortunately a deliciously scented candle and my fave turquoise colour bowl, did not survive the journey to my house, they arrived smashed to smithereens!

The lid of the candle is all I have to show you!

Last year I wrote a post about my Autumn dress choices one of which was from Anthropologie! I would choose similar today a whole year later!

Hello February! Happy as Larry with an armful of new fabric, bargain priced fabric, those lace fabrics were £1 pm 😳From local store @hansonsfabricsandcrafts Day made 🙌🏻
.
Big hello to new followers , let me reintroduce myself . . . I’m Ashley 👋🏻 a fabric and yarn obsessed midlife ‘gal’ 
Former air stewardess, costume maker and retail store manager. 
An empty nester with son at University, (he’s not too far away 😭) I feathered a new nest with 2 cats who live happily with our two dogs. 
My partner and I are keen on restoring pre loved vintage items of furniture lighting etc into unique pieces for our home. He does the hard work I draw the sketches and point at things. 
I post about my handmade life, sewing and crochet projects, our home restorations and occasionally the clothes and beauty products I wear and use as a midlife woman .
I find it very hard to be niche as I have too much to say! 
I have also been writing my blog Lazy Daisy Jones (link in bio) for almost 10 years. 
I very much enjoy connecting with other midlife girls on insta and proving it’s not just for the under 30’s . 
Leave me a comment if you are over 35 and any of this resonates with you Hellooooo x

Proud Muvva ! 
2nd year of his commercial photography degreeand a selection of my boy’s @jacobcramp work can be found in @pierjournal issue 2.
I think he takes timeless portraits. He only uses film and develops his own film too. I won’t mention what he thinks about digital photography ( 😳) 
He is also becoming an very good cook. He cooks for us when he visits. 
I can’t wait to see what the future brings for him.

Me, my dog, a bowl of crochet monsters, coffee brewing and chocolate digestives in the tin. Welcome to my world. I’m so rock ‘n roll it hurts!
.
Book is where the patterns for the monsters can be found, save for reference it’s a good one.
