Walking into Anthropologie, I always get the feeling of want and excitement seeing all the pretty designs but then the moment I look at the price tag, the item turns into fire — burning money through my teacher-salary-paycheck — and henceforth I put it down to prevent such a catastrophe.
I was prepared for this repetitive cycle again as I walked in the store last week. But lo and behold, I found this gorgeous lace overlay sheath dress that luckily did not become a fire but just a hot iron that barely singed the corners with the mere cost of $30. Yes, that was it. Weddings, garden parties, and date nights — watch out because this dress is coming for you.
Why I love this dress:
– The flattering shape
– The subtle color underneath the lace
– The comfortable fit
– The modest hemline
– The versatility
(after the photo shoot I threw on my denim jacket and switched to sandals and ran some errands. Ha )

so jealous you found a beautiful Anthro dress for cheap!!!! Now I am browsing the site in search of sale items hahaha
Haha! I hope you find something you like and that’s affordable! The key thing is to actually shop in store. Since they don’t have time limit on returns, sometimes you can find the cutest items that are marked down to pretty much nothing because of a return!
gorgeous! what a great price tag! that’s definitely meant to be 🙂
🙂 You betcha!
You’re kidding! $30?! That is such a steal at Anthro! Great find. It is so incredibly flattering on you and the details are gorgeous. Totally agree—garden parties, weddings and date nights call out for this dress! xo
