I got this hoodie a while back while I was in Portland. It’s an interesting piece to have in your closet. The bold colors and length make a statement indeed. At first thought, it’s great for workouts or a walk to the gym. But I wanted to take it a step further and turn it…

all me all day, baby
This is my niece, Lily. It’s the funniest thing when you catch babies in very grown up stances or poses. This is the day we taught Lily what pockets are. She liked them at first, but got a little frustrated when she couldn’t pull her hands out of them on her own. If Lily could…

I’m the type of person who is notoriously bad at remembering dates. Thank goodness for technology that does the remembering for me. Wordpress reminded me this morning that today marks the 3rd year of fortheloveofnike. One thousand and ninety five days ago, I started this blog for fun. After 422 posts and 7,016 of the…

Michigan City in Indiana, you look pretty. It’s such a quaint little town, right on Lake Michigan. There’s a lot of sand and it’s beautiful. Isn’t it funny that giant piles of sand can be fun to look at? My skirt and jacket are from Anthropologie and my sneakers are from NTC Lincoln Park. These…

A big group of us stayed in a quaint little cottage right off the main street downtown. Picturesque doesn’t even begin to describe it. We went on a day long wine tour, ate…

What was intended to be a cross-country ski trip turned into a snowshoeing experience. Turns out, when you’re as clumsy as I am, wearing shoes that make your feet bigger isn’t a good game plan. It was a fun trip full of wine, pie, and snow. When winter feels like it just won’t go away,…
Read Morechasing waterfalls (good thing I wore my sneakers)
Oregon is beautiful and breathtaking. During my trip to Portland, I made the short trip to Multnomah Falls. Few things are as therapeutic as standing directly in front of a waterfall, soaking wet from waterfall juice. My new Liberty of London Sky Highs fit right into the environment with all of the colors and grungy…

just keeping Portland weird
I’ve been in Portland for 9 days now, and I haven’t even scratched the surface of all that is this great city. As you may well know, Nike headquarters is right outside of Portland in Beaverton. I was lucky enough to get my hands on a pass to the employee store…and I went a little…
