Last week Kiel and I drove to Portland, Maine for a seaside jaunt hosted by LL Bean Signature to get a taste of the charming city, and a first look at their fall collection. The trip was everything a New England girl could hope for. The day started with an early morning lobstering cruise aboard the Lucky Catch. We not only got to wear the adorable lobstermen garb, but we also learned a few things, such as when to keep a lobster and when to throw it back to sea (the tiny lobsters we caught were just too small to eat). After a great morning we shopped the LL Bean Signature fall collection. I fell in love with the classic attire such as the fisherman sweater I'm wearing in this post,and their Italian wool blazers. Think beautiful plaid and herringbone! A visit to the LL Bean Flagship store in Freeport, a sunset schooner ride, Portland Head Lighthouse, and a sampling of the finest cuisine Portland has to offer provided the recipe for a perfect getaway! I can think of no better place than Portland to Wear Life Well.
