Wait until you see this outfit that Tania, who works at El Rayo, pulled together from Goodwill. This entire look probably cost $10 or less and girl looks like a million bucks.

These freshman students from Bates bring a whole new meaning to the term “looking good together”. They also seem to be friends that either get dressed together in the morning or have friend fashion ESP. And yes I just made up that term. Check out these cuties!

I’m not an insect person in real-life, but they sure do look cute on a t-shirt. I love her casual, weekend attire. Her Rogues Gallery bee (or are those hornets?) v-neck and skirt were purchased at Find — where she also happens to work.

Some guys ooze cool. They just can’t help it. Good hair, cool shades, a nice dose of surplus style with the canvas jacket. A+. But my favorite thing of all? The black sneakers. Allow me to explain.

I love denim shorts which I will also lovingly refer to as “jorts”. I absolutely live in them once summer hits. I think they look good dressed up with heels or dressed down with sandals.

Excuse me, is that a jellyfish on your jacket? I’m surprised I didn’t try to steal this seafaring staple right off this Portland resident’s back. In the theme of spring jackets, I love a good investment piece. Since the spring season isn’t too long, you might as well have fun with a warm-weather jacket.
