Fall Layering Piece: The Quilted Vest

I’ve been looking for a budget friendly vest for awhile now and finally stumbled upon this quilted one from Old Navy. Although it’s thin, this vest is the perfect fall layering piece. I love the olive color, but you have to be careful how you style it so you don’t start looking like a lumberjack!

Olive Quilted Vest

That’s why I chose to pair this vest with some über-feminine pieces. By styling olive with soft blush, it immediately softens the look up. I also layered it with a delicate sweater, my scallop clutch and some gold accessories which immediately brings up the sophistication level. What’s your favorite fall layering piece?

City by the Bay

I have to admit, I’m not normally a huge fan of graffiti, but I love this City by the Bay wall near our apartment. It’s lively, colorful and encompasses all the joy San Francisco has to offer! After passing this wall every week, I finally felt compelled to feature it on my blog. And what better way to show off this vivid work of art than the white-hot trend that’s everywhere this season?

Head-to-toe white is a great look this summer! It’s such an easy outfit to pull together and looks effortlessly polished. I especially love my new laser cut flats from Target, they were a steal at only $17.48! What are your thoughts on the white-hot trend? Share your favorite pieces in the comments below!

Ferry Building Farmers Market

This past Saturday, my husband and I made a trip to the Ferry Building Farmers Market. I love strolling along the embarcadero when it’s nice out- it’s so relaxing and the views are incredible! We were in search of some fresh fruit, but this farmers market has much more than that! The options were endless for produce, pasta, flowers and more. Check out the amazing hydrangeas I found below!

This weekend was a little chillier in San Francisco, so I opted for my go-to Levi’s 501 Selvedge Jeans and a chambray top. I also broke out my pink TOMS wedges this weekend. Because these TOMS are so cute, comfortable and polished, I chose them as my “dancing shoes” for our wedding reception. Now I love wearing these when I’m spending the day with my husband, it takes me back to how much fun we had dancing the night away! Do you have shoes that carry memories like these do? If so, share in the comments below!

This past weekend, my husband and I took a trip to Healdsburg, CA. We have been talking about taking a trip up to wine country to stock up on our favorite beverage for some time now and finally decided to plan it. For this trip, we focused on this adorable little town called Healdsburg. The wineries were beautiful, the weather was great and the food was amazing; we couldn’t have asked for anything more from this small town!

Since it’s much warmer in this area than San Francisco, I decided to go with this bold shorts romper from Forever 21. As I’ve mentioned before, I love the ease of rompers and this one is no exception! I paired it back with gold and camel accessories for a fresh summer look. What are your favorite day trip looks?

Power of Pink

Exploring San Francisco with my husband is one of my favorite weekend activities. When I know a lot of walking and hills are on the agenda, comfort is key! With this in mind, I chose the girl’s best friend, a maxi skirt. I love maxis. They can be dressed up or down and are a staple for any wardrobe. I especially love this one from Nordstrom with the side zipper. You can change the height of the zipper slit depending on your outfit.

When dressing comfy, I quickly pass up the heels and grab some flats. The key to looking put together when dressing comfortable is accessorizing! In this look I opted to glam it up with my white rhinestone handbag, rhinestone caged sandals and heart sunnies. This was a great ensemble to run around town in. What key looks do you explore your city in? What’s your key to dressing practical and comfortable and still looking fabulous?
