Bloggers Share-in-Style: PLAID




Bloggers Share-in-Style: PLAID. 
Today we celebrate bloggers sharing in style, as dictated by the magnificent Sacramento of Mis Papelicos. So perhaps it was fitting that I share two plaids meeting up on a rainy day in the Pacific Northwest. I wasn't dressed for photographs, or public consumption- it was cold, I was chilled, and pretty much just working out of my house, so I was uh, a bit, casz, as in casual. I put on my galoshes, when I left the house to meet a local yokel, who happens to be a very stylish Seattle blogger. 

She too, showed up in plaid.




This is plaid grilled to perfection, people. Her husband's vintage car coat in a red lumberjack plaid. Warm, and cool as fuck. I immediately crushed out on her Sperry Top Sider's and forced her to pose outside for me, an impromptu photo shoot in between rainclouds.

Say hello to Catie B-she's pretty much the most exciting Seattle fashion blogger around. I am lucky to get to know her personally- she is as rad (and stylish) as she looks on her blog. Which you can check out HERE.  You can thank me in home-baked cookies.

Catie took some shots of me- but the pictures were not so good. I blame the mish-mash outfit, and the model. Meh, we can't hit home runs all the time. But it's a homer on the double dash of plaid, doncha think?

Both rocking the plaid! I love that you and Catie both turned up in the same pattern, a sign you're friends on the same wavelength! x

You look cute and very Seattle! Plaid is almost used as a neutral there.

Susan B said...

Hi Bella my darling! You look so sweet! You know what? I don't own a single plaid thing. I must be a real dolt! But I got new glasses!
How are you doing?? I miss you!

I've got a plaid scarf winging (trucking?) its way to me as we (virtually) speak. A modest start, but perhaps someday I'll own plaid as convincingly as you two. Thanks for the inspiration!

I love plaids and I love you. Always a good combination.
Catie is indeed stylish, but too young for me. I want to see women my age or a decade or so younger, but not really young. Makes me pine. LOL
