Winter on Alberta Street ❄️
January in Portland has a quieter, cozier rhythm and Alberta Street is one of the best places to lean into it.
Winter here feels special: fewer crowds, more chances to slowly browse our neighbors’ shops, grab warm drinks, and make an afternoon of it. If you’re visiting Modo Boutique, whether you’re shopping, consigning, or simply stopping by, there’s plenty around that makes this neighborhood worth exploring.
A cozy stop at Modo Boutique
This time of year, the shop is full of texture, knits, coats, boots, and layering pieces that make getting dressed feel both intentional and joyful. With new inventory arriving daily, winter is one of our favorite seasons for unexpected finds.
Whether you’re in for a quick browse or a longer visit, we always love seeing familiar faces, and meeting new ones.
✨ Open daily, 11am–6pm
📍 2025 NE Alberta Street, Portland, OR

Winter wandering (at your own pace)
Cold, drizzly days are surprisingly excellent for browsing. Alberta’s shops feel calmer this time of year, and it’s the perfect chance to explore without the bustle of warmer seasons. Pop into a few local businesses, treat yourself to something warm, and enjoy the quieter side of the neighborhood.
Thinking about consigning?
Winter is also a great time to reassess your closet. If you’re rotating out pieces you’ve loved but no longer wear, consigning with us is a simple way to make space — and earn cash or store credit while you’re at it.
