First off, I LOVE Portland!
I love the trees, I love the weather, I LOVE my best friend that lives there!
My friend Ashley and I were able to fly out this last weekend and attend said best friends wedding.
It was beautiful!
Julie, the bride, is the one sandwiched in the middle.
(Also side note, I own all of these outfits)
It was a perfect wedding weekend!
They had the reception at a ranch which was just gorgeous all around!
This horse was super friendly and wanted to take me for a ride I'm sure.
Ashley and I were able to sneak away from wedding duties a couple times and do some shopping and walking around town as well. We were dying to check out Portlands antique/thrift stores!
I bought the CUTEST dress from the 1930's that fits perfectly!
I will take pics when I wear it to show off.
Some other cool Portland stuff from the weekend:
Christmas tree farm!!
For those who don't know me, I'm a Christmas fanatic and these trees made my heart swell with Christmas spirit!
Powells Book Store
Another passion of mine, reading. I bought The Great Gatsby. Seriously how have I never read this before!?! I also bought my husband a beard book...for obvious reasons.
[see pic top right]
Voodoo Dougnuts
I think I was expecting fairy dust and unicorn farts or something cause the doughnuts kind of fell flat for me...or it could just be that I don't really like doughnuts in the first place??
Cool art in the city
Ps- My Instagram is full of Portland pics as well.
I've never been, but I keep suggesting to my husband that we live in Portland someday.
