What I really want to know is...who drew my ass when I wasn't looking?

Lamp is to die for! Or I guess sleeping with someone is easier ( and more fun).

anthropologie carried it for a long time...it was even on sale for a while (i stalked it...i so wanted to get with it, too!)

Thank you, Erika! It doesn't look like they carry it anymore.
That said, I most definitely would not sleep with the owner of Anthropologie. He gives $$ to anti-gay groups. Can't go there, ya know?
Much love to you, Miss Erika!

This looks like a good DIY project.

Hi Amy,
Well, when I blogged about an Urban Outfitters item awhile back (Urban and Anthro share the same owner -- Richard Hayne), I was alerted by various readers and emails that Richard Hayne was homophobic and gave money to politicians and groups that are anti-gay. strange, i know, considering the urban branding of each store.
Here is my post. You can see some of the comments http://tinyurl.com/ybe9hue
Afterward, I mentioned this controversy to some of my friends and they were shocked that I didn't already know. Guess it's somewhat common knowledge? Supposedly, Richard Hayne manages to stay out of the spotlight and doesn't grant interviews because he knows it will hurt his branding.
Granted, I would love more that anything to find out that all of this information is completely false because I love the products at both of these store. Simply love them. But, since I was given this information back in February, I've stopped blogging about their products and shopping at their stores. And believe me, I gave them A LOT of business beforehand.
Again, if anybody has any other info on this, please let me know!

Maison,
simply put -- you rule.

I'm with you on that!

These are made by Roast in a little surburban studio in Herne Hill, London, UK. Our friend bought one for his wife for her birthday (VERY expensive) so maybe you should pursue him!
