looking cute during 200+ days of rain, Making sure your victory rolls stay nice under your bike helmet, constantly being asked why you are dressed up. Just a few of the fun things about loving PUG in the luscious Pacific Northwest.

Hey all! Well the winter weather certainly is here and I'm not wanting to let my cute dresses sit in the closet for the next 7 months. So I'd like to know how you all "winterize" your looks. Today…Continue

I spied a kindred soul at Temple Bar in Bellingham tonight! She came whisking through the door in a sailor dress and I wanted to befriend her so badly! Haha I don't see other PUGs around here often…Continue
Hey all, thanks for the invite. I'm in Seattle as well. :) Last winter I just wore a lot of cardis and shrugs with my boots or tights.
I love my cardigans and peddle pushers.
Seattle - Ballard to be specific!! :)
Has anyone been to Diva Dollz on 1st Ave? Anyone going to the PUG yard sale?
I have been to Diva Dollz. The staff is super sweet there, but I have a hard time paying more for the same dresses I can find online. :/ I have gotten a few items there though and love going in to see accessories and dresses that I've been curious about.
@Yana, I completely agree regarding Diva Dollz. My best friend is actually friends with the owner and has filled in there. The store is darling and for how small a space it is they have really done an amazing job, but the prices are so, so high. I know that Seattle has high rents but I would actually be a loyal patron if she would just charge suggested retail. This is kind of a bitchy thing to do but when I am in between sizes on an item from PUG, Heartbreaker or the like I will see if Diva Dollz has it, try it on then buy it online. Is that super messed up? I have made about 150 worth of purchases there so I feel like it is not super deviant.
I don't think its bitchy. I'm sure she knows her pricing and it is what it is. And that's what I'm considering, trying some stuff on to know my sizing. I'm sure I'll buy stuff too. It will be nice to have the option to buy or order online. :)
Yep, I can't imagine what rent costs at that location! It would be nice if they did a bit more in terms of sales etc to get us all to actually purchase more. I know my Canadian friends often get screaming deals from Foxy, Rowena etc. when they do blowout sales, even with custom fees.
Portland here... so glad to have found this site!
Can any of the Portland people recommend some good retro/vintage clothing stores that don't cost a ton, but don't require you to bin dive? I love Naked City Clothing, but they're a tid spendy...
I'm in Vancouver, BC - not many PUGs around here so nice to meet you all! :)
