I was originally going to post every four weeks or so, but four weeks from my last guest post would be the 30th, and I will be in Peru by then. (I'm leaving the 22nd and will be back January 9th:) So I decided to post it the Friday before I leave so I'd be able to share it on Facebook, and have a chance to reply to any of your lovely comments:)
With this outfit, I decided to represent my Portland. I'm not sure how many of you know that I'm from Portland, Oregon, so I thought I'd really make that obvious and state it here. Yup, born and raised in that gorgeous city. I live out in the country now, but nothing will ever come between me and my love of Ptown. And I live not far so I go there often.
One of my favoritest things about Portland is its inhabitant's fashion statements. We're trendy, preppy hipsters. I hope I do it justice.

Cuz 'Baby, it's cold outside' is one of my all-time favorite Christmas songs. <3
...and I may or may not be listening to it right now. Colbie Caillat and Gavin DeGraw's version is the best, okay bye.
Oh and don't worry, I have a cozy coat to wear over this outfit.
I went for a thin eyeliner with soft red lips look for this outfit.

I got dreads recently. The whole half underside of my hair is dreaded. It's been a bucketlist wish of mine for a couple years now, and I am thrilled to finally be able to be part of the #dreadfamily.

the laptop just because you like a different version;)

Thank you! haha well, we'll just have to agree to disagree then;) Merry Christmas!
DeleteI adore your style! The pop of color the plaid provides totally makes this outfit.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! Yup, that's what I like - mostly neutrals, with a pop of color to flair things up:)
