Anthropologie’s Newest Collection is a Summer Dream Come True—and You Can Take 20% Off This Weekend
A piece of furniture has never given me the uncontrollable urge to put on a caftan, blast the song “Summer Breeze,” and whip up a batch of Aperol Spritzes before. That is, until I saw Anthropologie’s new Peacock Cabana Daybed above. The curved rattan and bright pink cushion would make any outdoor space feel like an instant oasis.
My new obsession is part of Anthropologie’s new Summer Outdoor Collection, which launched today. The weather-resistant pieces have a decidedly boho feel and were inspired by natural materials and nature in general, making them basically the ultimate in summer eye candy.
Even better? This weekend the whole site is 20 percent off in honor of Anthro Day. To take advantage of the discount, all you have to do is sign up for the free AnthroPerks loyalty program. Not in the market for new outdoor furniture? Don’t worry, the collection includes plenty dining and entertaining items too.
Check out a few more of the highlights below.
Yes, that is a bar cart shaped like an elephant. If you’re into kitsch, this might be right up your alley. It’s outdoor-friendly but would look just as cute in a sunroom or screened-in porch. Here, the Anthro team paired the cart with their Seagrass-Wrapped Highball Glasses ($56 for a set of four) and Seagrass-Wrapped Tumblers ($48 for a set of four).
These tumblers are crafted from glazed stoneware, making them a sturdy choice for outdoor drinking. The subdued tropical colors are playful but not too bright, and the monograms add a fun personal touch.
Watermelons are a quintessential summer treat, so this sweet umbrella is right on track. Not a fan of fruit? There’s also a floral version, and a meta umbrella-printed option. We love how the peach Lilith Chair & Ottoman ($1,298) complements the color of the melons without seeming too matchy-matchy.
It never really feels like summer until you enjoy that first al fresco dinner, and these melamine plates would make a gorgeous addition to any summer tablescape. The blue shade plays perfectly off the Tempeste Serving Bowl ($38) and Platter ($24) as well.
I’ve seen so many bistro tables made of metal that I was feeling a little burnt out on the concept, but this rope version with a glass top makes for a fresh take on the classic piece. Adding a pair of Roped Dining Chairs ($498) and the Mahla Indoor/Outdoor Rug (from $78) to the vignette turns the space into a welcoming spot to enjoy coffee or a cocktail.
