Hard to believe it's been a year since Seattle menswear retail staple Blackbird swung open the doors of its Portland outpost as part of the also-one-year-old Blackbox building, which instantly became a landmark of west side retail. To celebrate, the shop is hosting a little get together this evening from 6-9 pm with music and drinks. Likewise there is a slight pause in spring fashion shows this week, but oodles of retail celebrations and deals, so look sharp for updates every day.
