Hello Fall!

Hello Fall!, originally uploaded by anja louise verdugo.

Photo note:

"A very early-fall inspired outfit from Friday. The weather in Portland is really perfect right now, and I just did my first fall activity- canning pears!

Silk blouse: thrifted
Belt: thrifted
Wool vest: thrifted
Fox pin: Atlantic Treefox
40's purse: House of Vintage
Jeans: J Crew toothpick (my perfect jeans- found them on ebay in my size for cheaper than retail! lucky!)
Shoes: ebay, some weird brand"

My note:

Portland has some great little shops! I was just there visiting in November, and loved 23rd street.

Scarves: Trends and Styles

Scarves get my vote for best accessory ever. There is a scarf for any temperature or environment. They magically pull together even the most boring dead-of-winter so-uninspired outfit. They can cover your head if you are stuck in inclement weather, or stuck next to someone obnoxious and/or unnerving on an airplane and wish to appear asleep. But enough of my extolling the virtues of this magic article of clothing: here are a few awesome scarf trends and styles.

Trend #1: Oversized Scarf. Awesome, if done right (see picture). Less awesome, and more bag-lady-esque when done wrong.

Trend #2: Prints (esp. those that fall into the "ethnic" category)

Photo/Buy:

Style #3: The Snood. Best thing ever for those who don't like hats and happen to be caught in the rain. Can be Dr. Seuss-y, but that's very rarely a bad thing.

Check back again for a post on how to wear different styles of scarves, and what to wear them with!

True Love's Kiss

True Love's Kiss, originally uploaded by Duy's Photo Shoots.

I was just looking up photos of the band KISS, and found this gorgeous shot by Annie Leibovitz, whose work I love.

Here is the note that goes with the photo:


"This is the second part of the Sleeping Beauty portrait by Annie Leibovitz.

The first photo is David Beckham portraying Prince Phillip attacking the evil Maleficent.

This photo is Zac Efron portraying the Prince kissing the beautiful porcelain Princess Aurora. And she awakes.

This is part of the Disney Dream Portraits taken by Annie Leibovitz, and the first for the What Will You Celebrate? Promo while the others are for Year of a Million Dreams

labeled: "Where True Love can be Celebrated"


Notice how the costumes closely resembles the ones from the film. And the bed also. And how the roses surround her."

KISS Style - 35 Year anniversary!

KISS just played Key Arena last night in Seattle. Wish I could have gone!
