Solestruck’s New Vintage Lookbook: NIGHT RIDER
I’ll say it once, I’ll say it again, I’ll say it a thousand times…I’m kind of a vintage freak. Searching the thrift stores for cool vintage pieces is like treasure hunting. But if you don’t feel like being a pirate, Solestruck has all your vintage treasures in one place! This lookbook is a combination of Shoes from Solestruck’s Department of Antiquities (vintage at its finest) and clothing from some of the best vintage stores in Portland. I’m pretty much in love with the styling of this shoot.
Here’s a link to the full Lookbook, and some of my fave shots below:
clothing provided by Yo Vintage! Rad Summer and Ms. Wood…..and a few of my own personal pieces ;-)
Check out this Video for Solestruck’s Vintage Collection!!
If you didn’t know by now…I’m kind of obsessed with vintage. Not only is wearing essentially recycled clothing better for the environment, but it basically guarantees you wont catch anyone with the same outfit as you. ;-)
This video is for the ‘Nightrider’ lookbook I shot for the Solestruck Vintage Collection. A combination of Solestruck’s Vintage kicks, and threads pulled from some of the many amazing vintage clothing stores in Portland. This lookbook was shot at Oaks Amusement Park, which was closed for the season. We got the whole park to ourselves…making it pretty much the funnest shoot of all time.
Amazing shoes, amazing people, carnival rides, roller-skating, impeccable styling and vintage fabulousness! What more could you ask for?
Check www.solestruck.com next week for the release of the Night Rider lookbook- vintage fashion at its finest.
My Cameo on Solestruck!
It’s wonderful when you get to model for a company/store that you truly love. Solestruck is my absolute favorite shoe store in the world! The people that work there are fabulous, they know their shit, they are obsessed with shoes like me; they are seriously awesome. :)
The amount of awe-inspiring shoes that Solestruck carries is almost disgusting, and it seems like every day they get even more unbelievable pairs…checking their site for new shoes is kind of an addiction of mine…an addiction that leaves me broke, stylish, guilty and happy all at the same time. Here is a shot from one of the shoots I did recently for Solestruck…
Warning: This levitation maneuver should only be attempted while wearing Chloe Sevingy for Opening Ceremony, sneakers. They give you super human strength, plus, they are the most comfortable things I have ever put on my feet. They are old-school in a good way-Bringing back the late-ninties. I had a pair just like this in Junior High…and I did win best dressed at Evergreen Middle School….just sayin’….
Anyway, www.solestruck.com offers free shipping worldwide! Plus they are just plain good people. If you happen to be in Portland for any reason, they also have a flagship store here.

Halloween Weekend
I don’t know about you guys, but for me, Halloween has typically been a week-long celebration. I tend to really get into my costumes, and this year was no exception.
This year, the festivities started on Thursday night, but ironically, on Monday, the actual day of Halloween, I ignored the holiday completely. There’s something depressing about Halloween falling on a Monday night. I just couldn’t get into it.
My favorite part of my costume was my skeleton one-piece swimsuit by Black Milk Clothing. If you haven’t checked them out before you definitely should. They have an amazing collection of swimsuits and leggings. I repeat: A-MAZING. You should probably get a pair…
Here’s my costume:
Street Style: Backstage Portland Fashion Week
My favorite part about fashion week? The street style…..
Here’s Anna, one of Portland’s most amazing fashionistas. I’m always so excited to see what Anna is wearing. I basically attacked her with my camera every time I saw her, grilling her on the details of what she was wearing…which was mostly vintage finds….A-mazing.
Street Style: Portland Fashion Week
Every year, Portland Fashion Week is held at a huge warehouse in the ship yards. Its an awesome industrial location. Since I have to be there most of the day for fittings, hair and makeup. I decided to kill some time shoot what I was wearing.
Night 4: Portland Fashion Week 2011
The final night, and oh so glamorous! Project runway contestants Michael Costello and Jay Sario showed their amazing Spring 2012 lines. I saw my looks for the night and almost had a seizure. Here are some of my faves:

I lucked out and was put in my favorite look from Jay’s line
