Bright On the Run

[Coral Top: Forever 21 (sold out) ; Striped Top: Forever 21 (more options here); Navy Cardigan: Splendid via Buffalo Exchange; Jeans: Citizens of Humanity via REVOLVE, Striped snood (yeah that's what it's called!): Asos, sold out now but a here's a cute polka dot one; Bag: Vintage Coach, thrifted, Shoes: Aerosoles via T.J.Maxx, available here;]

Here's a quick look of my first-day-in-San-Francisco outfit. We had left Boston at 6 a.m., and neither of us are morning people. But it was well worth the early flight to still have a long chunk of day left on the West Coast once we arrived.

These pictures were taken with our point-and-shoot camera, and about two hours after we got in, so they might look a bit more raw than usual. But I was excited to throw on a bright, girly blouse with the cutest tiny bow details. The striped shirt underneath has my favorite turquoise blue color in it. And M captured some beautiful light, as always.

That day we ate a late lunch Sweet Maple, which had the best bacon ever (thick cut and seasoned with brown sugar and pepper) and was located near the Lower Pacific Heights apartment we rented through Airbnb. We walked all through the beautiful Marina neighborhood and ended up near Crissy Field, with a great view of the Golden Gate bridge. We ate more delicious food than I can even keep track of on that trip, but other favor spots were Uva, Plow, and Nick's Crispy Tacos (cheap but good margaritas will always win me over).

It's back to winter weather here in Boston, but I'm excited to wear that coral blouse again. Many ideas on how to layer and pair it with other stuff in my wardrobe, so keep on the lookout.

Flea Market Bag

[Jeans: Citizens of Humanity via REVOLVE; Shirt: Behnaz Sarafpour for Target via Buffalo Exchange; Sweater: J.Crew factory store (old); Sunglasses: Ray-Ban Flatop Boyfriend; Shoes: thrifted Salvatore Ferragamo via Garment District; Earrings: Forever 21 (old); Coat: Forever 21 (old); Bag: flea market]

I scored this awesome leather bag at a flea market last week for $5. It's old and warn and a nice light leather that I hope can work for spring. I paired it with a few other thrifted finds (shoes and top), and a dusty mauve sweater that I think I will retire for a bit once spring fully hits. I'm ready for bright colors, and already snuck some in with my socks and gloves.
