Posted BY FRANCES MAY ON January 17th, 2013Photo of Pimm’s Cup (always a good idea) Portland is all about brunch. Everyone is always trying to figure out where to go, when to go, how to avoid lines. Brunch is great- it’s breakfast plus lunch and you can sleep in. But let’s face it- the real beauty of brunch is that it’s socially [...]

Posted BY FRANCES MAY ON January 14th, 2013New in the store! These unisex raincoats are the best—so simple, straightforward and perfect, really. Double welded seams, so basically you are dry, and staying dry, and looking great all the while. I think we can boast a little melancholy in this town, too—now we can boast dryness as well.

Posted BY FRANCES MAY ON January 10th, 2013Okay, I am such a fan of Clueless. Growing up, I somehow ended up with a VHS copy and I swear must have watched it 1,000+ times. I would just put it on the way most normal people put on music. It not only inspired lots of cropped sweaters with mini pleat skirts and knee [...]

Posted BY JORDAN ON January 06th, 2013A couple of things. First: happy New Year, everyone! Second (and third): I just saw this piece by Christian Marclay (Telephones, 1995) on my friend Angella’s blog this morning, and really loved it.

Posted BY JORDAN ON December 27th, 2012Hey everyone! Hope the holidays have been as great as they possibly could be! I just caught this great piece in the New Yorker this morning and it really struck a chord, after having visited with my Great Aunt Jane this Christmas weekend. We looked through her parents’–my great grandparent’s–photo album (my Great-Grandma Clarice is pictured [...]

Posted BY JORDAN ON December 18th, 2012It’s not that I don’t like Christmas/holiday music. I do. Honestly!
