It's not a cinematic masterpiece, but Mandy Moore wears some delightful clothes in Because I Said So that have a definite Anthropologie vibe. This red-and-white polka dot dress with a thin patent leather bow belt was created for the film, but Milly did a line of delightful dotted pieces last fall and it probably won't be too difficult to find a similar dress.
Since her character is a chef, Mandy spends the bulk of the movie in charming aprons like this one, layered over sweetly patterned silk blouses.
This jacquard ivory coat with jeans is so chic, and it could easily be replicated with any textured snow-colored topper.
If I'm remembering correctly, this swoonworthy cream silk dress is 3.1 Philip Lim. The buttons down the bodice and the flowing skirt is beautiful. This is one of the first items I saw from Lim and I seriously considered shelling out the $$$ for it, but managed to restrain myself.
The chevron beading at the waist is exquisite--this would be lovely for a summer evening in Paris or a City Hall wedding.

Oh my, after I watched that movie, I went on a crazed hunt searching for that polka dot dress. I thought it was just adorable. When MM's character was carping about having to wear it to her mother, I was like, oh man, how can you possibly complain about that thing, give *me* the dress :)
ReplyDeleteI know! I actually think the dress has some definite sex appeal with the keyhole neckline and the ruby red shade. I was so bummed when I was that it was made for the film--adorable.
