I just noticed the holiday collections on Anthropologie’s website, based on Christmas movies. I think they did a great job setting up little vignettes based on the movies, and building collections around them. The Bedford Falls (from It’s a Wonderful Life) and North Pole (from Rudolph??) are tied for my favorites. It may not be a coincidence that those are two of my favorite holiday movies.*
North Pole collection, including (clockwise from top left): branch and twig colored pencils, forest creature belt, tree trunk mug, & boreal beast shot glass, rabbit (moose and deer also available)
Whoville collection, including (top to bottom):Dagney Dachshund & pompom coasters
I am still confused as to what “Londontown” is meant to represent.
Maybe those cheesy British holiday movies, like Love Actually and About a Boy (for which I have an undying, yet slightly embarrassing, affection for)? If anyone figures it out, please let me know!
*Phrases from It’s a Wonderful Life have been adopted into our normal lexicon. Like when I went to deposit some of our wedding gift cash at the bank recently, steve warned me not to “pull an Uncle Billy.” And I didn’t. Because I’m awesome. There are also periodic offers of moon-lassoing, none yet successful.
Have we talked about how much I love those dang phones? In Anthropologie this week I played with one and nearly died of happiness.
We have not, but they are pretty deliriously amazing. Kind of makes me want to get a landline.
