On Friday afternoon, my husband and I were at Lenox Mall in Atlanta doing some last-minute shopping when I saw a couple of retail displays I thought you might enjoy. This one is the "Christmas gown" of my dreams—or any tea lover's dreams!
And here's a close-up of the bodice. Crafted from actual cups, saucers and plates, this flowing gown comes courtesy of Anthropologie, which always has the most clever retail displays!
I could have looked at this for hours—if my man hadn't been waiting back at the food court!
And here's a parting shot of the back of the "gown."
Later, as we were leaving the mall, I saw yet another teatime display in the window at Club Monaco.
Naturally, this caught my eye as well.
Very clever, spraypainting this topsy-turvy teatime display all gold.
Cups, saucers, table, books, everything … how very festive!
What fun to see window displays like that! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThose are fun! Hope you have a very merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteHow fun! An Anthropologie store is relatively close to where I live, but I've yet to stop in. It might be fun to visit this week between Christmas and New Year's.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and your family, Angela. May all the joy [and tea themed goodies] you give away return to you on Christmas Day! Hugs, Phyllis
Wow, wasn't that tea themed gown something! I'm glad you shared it with us as it is one unique creation.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Angela, hope you have a pleasant gathering of family for the holiday.

Anthropology has such clever window displays but this one really tops all- especially for us!! Did you see the two handled teapot there? You can make two different teas in one pot.
ReplyDeleteMany blessings to you at Christmas. Thank you for your inspiration.

That is such a unique display. I would have found it hard to left because I would have been amazed at the detail.
ReplyDeleteThat gown is AMAZING!!!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas and thoughts of love to you!
What a neat Anthropologie display!
ReplyDeleteLove seeing these teatime treats at the mall. I have seen pictures of the Anthropologie dress, but how exciting to see it up close and personal. Merry Christmas to you!
ReplyDeleteHow unique and of course fun for tea lovers. I have noticed so many store windows and advertisements with tea themes.
ReplyDeleteThe Anthropologie store in the mall near me has a huge peacock on the wall made of dish towels and scarves for the tail. Beautiful.
Thank you for sharing your photos with us.
