Our favorite accessory is the scarf. We feel oh so put together, just like celebs and French ladies, we are never caught without one these days. And lucky us, we can stock up on all the pretties at the Jane Smiley trunk show today and tomorrow. She has traveled to India and Sri Lanka and brought back the finest/funnest treasures. And if you mention Portland Picks you are automatically entered in a raffle to win a scarf or $40 credit.
