Man Shops Globe

Ok, this is just a shout out for a television show I just saw on the Sundance Channel.  It's called "Man Shops World" and it basically follows a guy whose job it is to go shopping around the world on behalf of the store Anthropologie (120 stores worldwide).  He buys "found objects" large and small to be sold and/or used as store setting & decor.  The first episode I saw took him through the flea markets of Paris and Provence.  Watching the show, you can learn a bit about different periods and styles of furniture, art and decor.  I, on my couch, enjoyed every minute of living vicariously through him. This is a guy who loves his job and I can't wait to see where he heads off to next.  I think it's on Wednesday nights, 10 p.m. EST.

  1. Greg and I did some shopping on saturday, and as we walked by Anthropologie on 5th Ave, I found myself looking in the window thinking about this show you told me about.
