I will always love J.Crew, in fact they put some more styles of our bridesmaid dress on sale, and my sister loves the new style, so she's going to get that one instead. I love that you can pick a color and allow the girls to buy styles that suit their flavas. (Yes, I just said flavas.)

Anyways, I digress. I ordered a dress from Anthropologie for our upcoming engagement photos. I'm not going to tell you which one, you'll just have to see in a couple of weeks, but I was so happy when I received my package yesterday in the mail. I've never seen a company pay so much attention to the details. First, it came in a box, and I was a little surprised by that, because J.Crew usually sends my stuff in a plastic bag. The best part though, was the receipt. It was put inside of a linen satchel of sorts. I'll take a picture for those who have yet to order from them.


It reminded me of those cute fabric envelopes from Bird & Banner. I had long forgotten them, but I thought to myself what a cute touch. The fabric cost would probably be minimal, and it would be a nice little surprise for our guests (read "the women").



But that's not even the best part, they had the dress wrapped in this cute matching tissue paper with a pretty sticker. But wait, it gets better, the dress was so pretty and it had the coolest detail on the inside hem of the dress, and IT HAD POCKETS! I love pockets in dresses! I just ordered one of the ballerina dresses from J.Crew, the ones on sale, and they had pockets, too!


Immediately, I remembered a gift from my sister this past Christmas. She bought me this candle from Anthropologie (called Capri Blue), and I distinctly took notice of the bow. It was a fabric bow that was reusable and it looked amazing. So, basically I love Anthropologie now.

*I promise to take pictures of the linen satchel and fabric reusable bow when I get home later!
