This day last week I had the pleasure of witnessing one of my best friends and honorary big sister marry her perfect match and love of her life. In an oh so Carrie Bradshaw way she opted for an afternoon wedding ceremony at City Hall in San Francisco on their fourth floor rotunda and held the reception at the Fairmont Hotel. The setting couldn't have been more perfect. Jess wore head-to-toe Valentino, she was stunning! I opted to wear a turquoise and dark navy (almost black) striped dress by Kenneth Cole New York and my ... Read more...
Weekend Highlight: Local Getaway
Thanks to the Fourth of July holiday weekend, my husband and I decided to drive up the coast Saturday morning for a little weekend getaway. We planned a last minute trip up to Tomales Bay, Petaluma, and Sonoma. We went to Tomales Bay so that we could stop at Hog Island Oyster Company before going wine tasting. Justin loves oysters, so I thought it would be a great trip we both could enjoy. It was so nice to start our trip by driving over the Golden Gate bridge out of the fog and into the sunshine! It was such a lovely ... Read more...
Palo Alto Event: Intermix
The Summer is events season. When the weather warms up and the nights stay lighter, longer it seems that more and more events are happening throughout the week and carry through the weekend.

I have been a fan of Intermix for quite some time so when I found out that a location opened up in the Town and Country shopping center in Palo Alto I got really ... Read more...
Vintage Crochet Dress
This past weekend was so much fun it's hard to get back into the groove at work! Why can't there be a day in between Saturday and Sunday? Anyhoo, on Sunday I had a friend from SF come down for the afternoon so I used the opportunity to try out some spots I've been meaning to try in Palo Alto. We brunched at Mayfield Bakery & Cafe, then grabbed ice cream at Tin Pot, and finished by enjoying the sunny 95+ degree weather! I chose to wear my vintage crochet dress that was given to me by my aunt from New York. It looks very ... Read more...
SF Event: Joie + Nars
Last Thursday night I attended the Joie + Nars event in San Francisco hosted at Joie on Fillmore Street with fellow fashion bloggers, Juila & Nichole. Anytime I have an excuse to drive up to the city for some shopping and pampering (getting glam'd up included) I am all there! I absolutely love Joie clothing and Nars makeup so this event was a no brainer, had to make it, under no circumstances was I going to miss it, kind of event. Here are some pics, taken with my iPhone, to give you a little taste of the goodness. I ... Read more...
