It’s no secret that I have a love affair going with the style and marketing department of Anthro and Free People. I could live in the window display at Anthro for a week and be perfectly happy if someone brought me snacks. I have to be honest and say that their clothes are not that well made (always have something unraveling on them–makes me crazy), but I still am enamoured with the cut of their pieces and how feminine they are—they know how to drape a woman’s body. I try to keep my Anthro/Free People indulgences to a minimum for obvious reasons…you can find the occasional piece at secondhand spots (like this one I found at Buffalo Exchange in Portland)…
But occasionally…a piece calls my name and I think about it the next day…it is then that I know it was destined for the MPG wardrobe.

I love the skinny-at-top/wide-triangle-at-bottom cut on this…and the color! This is the color for 2012 in my closet. It means passion and joy and I plan on wearing it a lot.
This purchase below (last January on my 40th birthday) still remains to be the single best thing I ‘ve ever added to my wardrobe.
Bonnie Boots make me feel grounded and happy. I plan on adding festive boots a la Old Gringo to the rotation as the years roll on…they tell a story and never go out of style.
Some other additions will involve vintage turquoise jewelry…
So pretty…
I plan on being that wild woman with long silver hair and turquoise jewelry up my wrinkly arms when I’m 75.
I have a Pinterest board for the MPG style finds if you’d like to take a peek…Pinterest can be crack, as I’m sure some of you have found out. Goodness…what a time waster! But a fun place to put all your stuff in categories.
What’s your favorite MPG style accessory?
Hope you had a great weekend, lovelies!
OX.
p.s. there’s still room in Top Secret Photography workshop in TEXAS…info is here.

I love how you can wear it so many ways, and cannot wait to sport it this winter with a charcoal T & jeans
Talk about comfy! I am in love with your sweater – is this the color too? Absolutely awesome – in fact, I think you should imagine up a fun scenario and snap a pic of yourself all MPGed up!

Sometimes I think we are soul sisters… boots, turquose… both on my favorite list! I always tell DB that I will have the wild curly gray hair down to my butt when I’m 70, while riding my Harley!!
That sweater (color) will be stunning on you!
Love your blog and pinterest! Just bought a pair of earrings on etsy you posted.
