Portland People

Sitting on NW 23rd people watching is magic. High school and college kids running amok while young, middle, and old people head up and down the street, it's impossible not to notice the styles and directions...

Lots of people walking their pups, one of the reasons I love this city so much. Small dogs, large dogs, in-between and of all breeds and colors. Bicyclists, fancy-ass cars, old jalopies, and beaters roll on by through the two lanes, meandering in and throughout the traffic of a Tuesday after holiday afternoon. Business attire, retirement chillers, hipster duds, casual, tried and true comfy, some sportswear, as well as dress-to-impress line the street. So many different looks!! I wish I could capture it all and document it here...

I've seen some snappy ensembles assembled. Fancy new ways to wear a maxi skirt, tunic, long sleeve, bandeau, dress, tights, socks, slacks... An amazing smarting of pattern, color, coordination, accessorization, and flair thrown down. Incredibly uncomfortable looking shorts riding up tiny (or large) asses, frumpy-wear, sneakers with all, blisters waiting to happen, Toms abound, so many cut off shorts, and lots of tanks. Layering, layering, and more, be it clothes, accessories, or styles. There is just so much to see wandering by.

I'm so fixated on the clothes I cant see the faces.
