Life
Interior decoration is not merely a hobby, it is an act of self-care. Psychologies, a UK-based lifestyle magazine, once asked its readers to describe what makes a house a home. The responses, they note, were "more about the emotional connection and sense of comfort we’re able to create behind closed doors." For many, the first time living on your own (be that in a dorm, apartment, or even just getting your own bedroom) comes with a sense of freedom. The realization you can independently decide how to personalize your space is liberating, to say the least. Home decor companies know this. Luckily, for anyone looking for further inspo for that personalization, you can now find Anthropologie homewares at Nordstrom in stores and online.
Who knows tasteful bohemian decor better than Anthropologie? The Philadelphia-based company has absolutely mastered a look sought after by young creatives everywhere. The one downside of Anthropologie is how difficult it can be to actually ~find~ a store. When you want an Anthro candle, nothing else will do. Luckily, the fine folks at Nordstrom understand heard people's laments. In an astounding power move (and the best news for pretty decor lovers in ages), Nordstrom now carries Anthropologie home items. With over 200 items from the collection currently available on Nordstom's website, never again will you have to compromise on curtains or cheese boards.
