This week’s Style File is being delivered from the Portland (a little late). I’ve been here since Tuesday and had the most amazing trip. I’ll be doing a recap next week, but here’s a glimpse of my sartorial choices for this rainy (and snowy) town. Notice that it’s all gray and black…
Don’t forget to check out Monique’s Daily Digs as she was in Portland with me!
By far my favorite thing to come out of any of the fashion week shows so far is this Gucci Fall 2011 collection shot by Scott Schuman. It’s so colorful and the floral shawls are to die for. And those high slits are everywhere this fall, love.

My personal design motto should be “Give me grids, or give me death!” I mean, what is life without order, right? I always find myself coming back to these very orderly food shots for the ikea cookbook styled by Eveline Bratell, photographed by Carl Kleiner.

How come I never receive letters on amazing letterhead? I wish I had been friends with Andy Warhol, he had some killer letterhead, and I bet he wrote imaginative letters on it too.

Spotted this lovely lady on The Sartorialist over the weekend and gasped with delight. She looks like she stepped out of another era. Gorgeous.
These typographic beauties are merely the titles from Insurance Maps produced by Sanborn Map Company™ between 1880 and 1920. Imagine if we still paid this much attention to detail on the title of every thing we produce? I imagine we would have a lot less stuff and it would all be much better looking.

I loved this week! We had Valentine’s Day, so I had an excuse to wear not one, but three ban.do hearts (shoe clips + pin) and the weather turned a little gloomy, so I busted out hot pink tights to combat the rain.
Don’t forget to check out full size images on flickr (and a few silly outtakes) and Monique’s week at Geek Squeak!
Love these stills from Chris Craymer’s eccentric lifestyle portfolio!
Spent some time doodling last night and this came out… kind of love it!

Check out this most inspiring wall of inspiration made of equally spaced binder clips. I love the symetry of the foundation offset by the asymetry of the clippings.
