Introducing Portland Picks’ First-Ever
Fall Fashion Guide!

You think we’d let fall fashion happen without picking out a few of our favorite items? Of course not! We have too many opinions to keep them to ourselves, so here’s a brief roundup of what we are buying for fall and where we’re buying it. We think everything on this list should be included in everyone’s must-haves. Welcome fall in fabulous fashion… and shop local!

The Perfect Scarf from Butterscotch

Once you have the outfit, nothing ties it all together (literally) like a fabulous scarf. We are loving the Asian Eye scarves from Butterscotch. The prints are vibrant, the colors are spot-on for fall, and you’ll get compliments on them for years to come!

  Flared Jeans from Mercantile

How many cuts of denim flatter every body and are totally hot for fall? Just flares, baby, just flares. Get yours at Mercantile—in denim or cords. We love these from 7 for All Mankind: the Jiselle in Earheart (pictured) and the Kimmie Cord in Charcoal.

  Ankle Boots from Imelda’s

Buckle up for fall in these fantastic Vivi boots from Born… only at Imelda’s. they’re the best of the trends without being trendy. They’re feminine, tough, and chic—pair them with menswear, military or equestrian looks, or your favorite skirt & tights. Superlove.

  Mixed Metals from Avenue Five

Matchy-matchy jewelry is so dated. Get current by shaking it up with these lovelies by Robindira Unsworth from Avenue Five Jewelry. Wear them all together or pick a favorite. The mixed-metal “Talisman” necklace, the vermeil-and-pyrite necklace (center), and the 22k vermeil large gold hoops go with anything!

  The (Sexy) Floppy Hat from Bonnet

We’ve been obsessed with Bonnet’s hats since they opened. Every season they tempt us with a “must-have” item, and this fall it’s the “floppy.” This wool hat is perfect for keeping long locks dry in the rain, and will totally channel your inner fashionista—and hottie!

  Slim-Cut Trouser Jeans by Agave Denim

Our love for Agave Denim has outlasted several boyfriends, because their jeans never let us down. And this fall their “Listo” slim-fit super-stretch trouser jean is the one we’re falling for. In the “Santa Cruz” dark wash you’ll look taller and leaner—no matter your shape.
