We have been to some beautiful places, but there are so many beautiful places everywhere left to see. We're excited about the places we've explored and love to imagine the places we could someday go, and dream about the things we'd do if we went. We also love to get into the fashion vibe of each destination, and find the perfect outfits for our dream vacations.

Portland, Oregon

why we love it there...

Portland is one of the few cities that really, really makes being green and clean an active lifestyle choice. people in Portland ride their bikes everywhere, they recycle, and they don't litter in the streets. they love and respect their city the same as people in other places respect nature, and that's why it's soooo beautiful!

what we wanna do in Portland, Oregon...

River Cruise

we love the way the city is built around the river. they have these amazing steamboats, and these beautiful park areas that line the river. it's totally like something out of Mary Poppins.

Portland Saturday Market

in pretty much any town or city you go to, a downtown market is a good way to take in the vibe of a place and Portland is such an awesome city, just hanging out and lingering around is happiness.

Mt. Hood

we would head east of the city to go to Mt. Hood. we have been there, and it's spectacular. we'd rent a cabin or stay in a lodge and be in total heaven.

casual portland style

Portland has a pretty casual vibe, and the kind of things we want to do there call for comfy, ready for low 90's to cool 60's temperatures, and decent walk-around-all-day shoes...
