Last of the Tampa Anthro Reviews

These are the last of my reviews from a few weeks ago when I was at the Tampa Anthro. First up is the Jacinth Sweaterdress. It's a really nice orange color and it's very soft & comfortable but I don't think it's super flattering on me. It looks a bit strange in the hip area. I like the neckline though and the ruffled edges.



Here it is with my Button Bin Cardi and Gift Bow Belt. I think it looks a little bit better this way but overall I think this dress is a pass for me.



Next is the Tria Sweater Skirt. I was surprised by how much I liked this skirt! It's stretchy and the material is nice (not itchy). It's a great length and I just love the rows of ruffles along the bottom. This is a size small and it's too snug but I think a medium would be just right.



For comparison, here's the size large that I tried on recently and it's too big. I actually folded over the top to make it shorter. If this goes on sale and there is a medium left somewhere, I'd definitely like to have this skirt.



And last, here is the outfit that I wore shopping that day:

Button Bin Cardigan (Anthro)
Tank (Belk)
White Shirt with Pearl Buttons (Steve & Barry)
Gift Bow Belt (Anthro)
Jean Skirt (Old Navy)
Sandals (Lands End)

  1. I really love that sweater skirt on you. I can't see it being flattering on me but after seeing it on you, I might just have to give it a whirl. Sorry the Jacinth dress didn't work on you. I'm wearing it today!

  4. I love all the sweater knits in this review post. And the Jacinth sweaterdress looks infinitely better when styled with the Button Bin cardi and Gift Bow belt. What an ingenious idea!

    ANd thanks also for your eview of the Tria skirt. It sadly disappeared from my local stores before I had a chance to try it on. I know that many people have found it to be unflattering, but you pull it off so effortlessly. Hope it goes on sale -- for you and me, both!

  7. That skirt is killer on you - you are strong to wait for a sale! It's at the top of my "need to try on" list for Monday! And I covet your button bin cardi - I didn't love it, until it was too late....sigh.
