So we finally got ever-so-slightly with the times and saw Volver, which was so excellent, not least because Penelope Cruz’s costumes were so equally excellent and bright. We totally loved them. We want to find this cardigan \ jacket and buy it and wear it to the next-door restaurant that we take over and where we serve delicious drinks etc.

We are pretty reasonable we can find reasonable fascimiles of these lovely red sweaters at Anthropologie.

This, predictably, has us looking for black shirtdresses.

We even love how her mom is dressed. This has us looking for vintage red-print dresses.

And so bright and pattern-y! We mean, it wasn’t like theeee most amazingly costumed movie ever—it wasn’t Sabrina. But we loved what she wore, and we highly recommend both—the clothes and the movie—to anyone equal behind the movie-times as us.

We will discuss her extremely lovely shoes later today.

Unfortunately, and surprisingly, Anthro has no red cardigans. What is wrong with the world, that we buy more cardigans in summer than winter? Anyway: We sort of like this one. We’d really prefer if it were red. And Penelope Cruz-like. Anthro cardigan, $98

  1. Does anyone else think that Penelope’s hair is slightly reminiscent of a French prostitute? I’m recalling images of Fantine in Les Misérables.

  2. There is a cute vintage-ish red dress in the most recent Sundance catalog. Check out the additional pics where they show it without the belt. Even cooler is the vintage teardrop trailer that they’re selling a few pages away.
