We found this dog on a wall in the Splendid store. We think it is a blanket but it could be used as wall art so easily.

What an elegant profile. We can't remember what this item actually is but we love the look of it

The day after Thanksgiving has always been a busy one for us. No we do not and will never open at 3am. But at the very civilized hour of 10am both malls will be open for your shopping.This year we are part of a very cool shopping promotion called Little Boxes. Many fabulous stores are participating in an effort to promote alternatives to shopping at those other stores...... For more information take a look at the website www.littleboxespdx.com

We think that you have to be under a certain age to really be able to pull of this kind of head gear but it caught our eye. Dealer 169 has plenty of winterwear items in her booth space at Splendid. You had better get over here and shop. And NOW!!!!

We haven't seen this new fashion statement written up in the New York Times Style Magazine yet but when we were in NYC a year back, these kinds of jackets were in the hundreds of dollars. This one is $75 and Dealer 169 has it.

Portland is the land of Pendleton but it is fun to see vintage Pendleton items in the stores this time of year. They are classic. Dealer 169 has plenty of them.

If you are heading on an arctic expedition or just want to have your ears nice and toasty this winter, this is the hat for you. Come check out all the cool retro winter wear at Dealer 169's booth space.

There are plenty of warm and wooly coats in Dealer 169's space. This is just one example. Prices range from $35 to $95. Warmth is coming cheap this winter
