A few things I wear or do that seems to be typical for this area. Most of these things I wore before I moved here, but I guess we seek the environment where we can blend in. It's like camouflage, in a way.
* Birks
* hairy legs (though not in the summer)
* scarves
* rain jacket i/o umbrella
* layers
* natural fiber
* funky shoes
* covered up
* winter hats (Kangol cap, watchman's knit cap, black beret, wool hat)
* cross-body, messenger style bags

About me
I live in the Pacific Northwest. I like fashion, writing, and photography, and I'm always sifting through the past and thinking about the nature of memory. For these reasons, I keep a blog to record the more transient moments of my interests.

hairy legs are camouflage?
I can see two men walking down the street. One says to the other, "Hey, look, a hot babe!"
The other one says, "Can't be, look at the hairy legs, that one's a local. Don't you know nuttin?"
WTF?
R calls one of those woolen caps with the puffball on top a "toboggan." Have you ever of this name? I mean, since that's actually a sled, I was wondering if this term is slang across the US.
I have never heard of it being called a toboggan in real life, but I think I have heard of it being called that before.
