Welcome to a new casual series of posts here! In these posts I will be going into the details of some of my favorite outfits and the pieces that make them up. Earlier this year I got to travel to Portland Oregon for my anniversary with my partner.
Day One
For the first full day of our trip, we rented a car to go venture to the coast to do some sight seeing. It was going to be chilly and I knew I would have to throw on some layers for hanging out by the ocean. First we drove down to cannon beach, just a couple hours from Portland, and then up to Astoria. I needed something that was cute enough to walk around town in and take photos, but also be comfy enough to wear sitting the car for some time.
Sunglasses- Derek Cardigan
Rain Jacket - Borrowed
Teal Collared Dress - Hell Bunny
Bee Cardigan - Dancing Days
Black Tights - Dynamite
Not Pictures - White Keds Shoes
Day Two
We had to wake up early to drop off the car that we had rented the day before to drive to the coast. Afterwards our plans were to bike down to the science museum to go check out the submarine tours they had. This called for comfy black stretch denim to bike around in, and Doc Martens to walk around in. Throw on a pull over a collared shirt and call it an outfit. When it got chilly in the evening I threw over my grey blazer and big scarf to keep me warm
Rock Star Jeggings - Old Navy
Hawaiian Shirt - Thrifted
Black Pullover - Thrifted
Aimilita Doc Marten Boots
Grey Wool Blazer - Simons Canada
Plaid Blanket Scarf
Day Three
Anniversary Day! We had reservations at a nice restaurant in downtown Portland. After spending the day wandering around where we were staying, we went back to our Airbnb to change (and nap). I had brought one of my favorite dresses along with us. I had earlier in our trip bought a pair of navy eyelet gloves and cropped black 50s jacket from a vintage shop. The hat I wore was also bought for a steal of a deal just the day before. With black netting and feather I feel like it pulled the entire outfit together.

Day Four
It was our last full day in Portland. We had very little plans for our day, other than going for breakfast at Mckennins School and then a swim in their heated salt water pool. The day before I bought a lovely mustard yellow wool shirt, that went perfectly with the bee cardigan that I had brought along with me. As someone who hates throwing on clothes while wet, I made sure that I wore a skirt so I didn’t need to deal with the stickiness of pants on wet legs after our swim. I threw on my fedora to hide away my not so clean hair.
