It's been one of those perfect weeks here in Portland (after all, life is good here) for just walking around town. That's exactly what these actors were doing while they were visiting Portland for the day, on a quick break from spending their summer at Theater at Monmouth.
Want to be the best dressed guy in the office? Take a few style cues from this East End resident who knows how to rock business separates like it's his business.

Goodwill South Portland (555 Maine Mall Road). A friend recently reminded me that though I'm constantly telling people to go here, and I'm always finding great clothes here, I've never actually blogged about it before! Sac le bleu! So for the good of this blog, and the world, I thought I'd take you along on my most recent thrifting trip.
Booze. I've finally come to terms with the fact that buying men alcohol as a gift is always a crowd pleaser. But since I like to pair thoughtfulness with practicality, here's a few "pairings" if you will, of Father's Day drinks and gifts that will please any Pops.
Let's be honest. Styles change with the times. It's easy to get caught up in trends, especially when you're looking for a wedding dress. On a recent trip home, my Mom said, "You should try on my wedding dress!" This is normally a moment all bride-to-be's dread, but I was surprised to see that I have the potential be a 70's inspired peace-and-love bride. Want to see?
On Saturday, June 29th, SwapMaine is back and better than ever. We're headed back to the East End School for a giant, citywide swap that'll give you a closet full of new clothes for the summer. For those of you that haven't attended a clothing swap before, allow me to explain how it works!
And can we talk about the fact that MECA now offers a Textile & Fashion Design major?! When this lovely lady told me that was her major, my jaw dropped. I actually had to hold back tears and literally contain myself. Portland is just one step away from being a fashion capital. I knew it.
I met this chic Mother/Daughter duo while they were in town for a road race. I’m guessing the most exciting thing about being a parent is being able to dress your child. Am I right?
I'm a bit of a sun worshiper. Do I always wear sunblock when I'm in the sun? Yes. Do I love laying out in the sun? Yes. These two are often counter productive. A new article came out in the New York Times that educated me about using sunscreen and I learned a few tricks I'll be putting to use this summer.
Haven’t been out of town in a while? The Get out of Dodge with Southwest Airlines contest will treat one lucky winner to two Southwest Airlines tickets. Where you go is up to you.
After visiting Maine only a handful of times, Laura Serino packed up her studio apartment in New York City and headed north for "the way life should be." After a summer on North Haven island, she and her boyfriend, a Maine native, settled in Portland, Maine.
Serino is a former magazine editor who has been published in national and regional publications. When she isn't blogging, she spends her time antiquing, scouring thrift shops, exploring new places in Maine and cozying up to her cat Jasper. She recently completed her first book, "Twentysomething Girl, 1001 Quick Tips and Tricks to Make Your Life Easier."
