Zaarly Crawl

Civil Smith Blazer/ Olive & Oak Dress/ Qupid Booties/ Cara Accessories Necklace/ Nordstrom Watch/ B. Makowsky Bag
A couple months ago I discovered Zaarly. I obviously didn't understand the concept or purpose of it when I accidentally posted an ad for Seared Ahi Tuna...lol, whoops Zaarly is more of a classified system, NOT a search engine {and the fatty award goes to..}! Fast forward to this Thursday and I was participating in the Zaarly Startup Crawl....basically a Pub Crawl where Startup businesses turned their offices into College Parties {yes we played flip cup AND foosball}. We did a bit of networking and pretended to keep up with everyone's drinking energy, but ended up slipping out early in the second to last stop to get our grub on at our favorite crepe spot in the city. For the next Crawl I've vowed to come more mentally prepared and at least make it to the last stop, hope to see you there :-) 
Ouch!
DJ K in the mix!
Moustaches, although equally handsome worn as eyebrows...

Shecky's Girls Night Out

Lulu's Sweater/ Old Navy Top/ Mossimo Jeggings/ DV by Dolce Vita Boots/ Coach Bag/ Dear Mina Necklace/ Scarf, Souvenir - Playa del Carmen, Mexico/ Nordstrom Watch/ Bauble Bar Bracelet
Last week my roommate and I attended Shecky's Girls Night Out at Fort Mason in San Francisco. I've been to this event twice before and always love it! They have tons of drinks, all sorts of different shopping vendors, and usually some sort of complimentary beauty services. At this event they did a mixology class with Cointreau and Benefit was giving complimentary eyebrow waxing! My favorite discovery at the event was the company Via Rue Travels; they plan group tours to Europe that make stops at some major fashion hot spots. Next spring Jessica Quirk of What I Wore is even co-hosting a trip with Via Rue to Paris! I'd love to do a trip with them one day!

Anyone up for a Fashion Tour of Paris with Jessica Quirk?

Treasure Island Flea

Forever 21 Jacket/ Victoria's Secret Top/ Bebe Jeans/ B.Makowsky Bag/ BCBGirls Flats/ Kate Spade Sunglasses/ Forever 21 Jewelry/ Michael Kors Watch/ Bauble Bar Bangle
The weather this past weekend was gorgeous once again! So my boyfriend and I headed out to the city for the Treasure Island Flea Market. I can't emphasize enough how seriously impressed we were with this event! It wasn't like an ordinary Flea Market where you can expect to find people slinging stolen goods and crazy knockoffs; I would describe it as an Artist's Flea Market.
There was tons of gorgeous vintage jewelry and clothes--which is exactly what I was hoping for, so I left with quite a few items at really great prices. My boyfriend and I were in awe of some of the amazing pieces of handcrafted and repurposed furniture; it almost made me want to buy a house just so we had a reason to take something home! They also had vendors with fun finds for my boyfriend, like old tools and vintage signs that he loves. Besides the flea market vendors there was music, tons of different food trucks, and Treasure Island's own The Winery even had a booth. We had such a great time, I'm hoping we can make it back on November 27th for their last flea market of the year!

I got this necklace with green stones, can't wait to wear it!

We ate the most delicious asian inspired sandwiches!
For dessert we devoured a dozen maple glazed mini donuts with bacon sprinkled on top..delish!

Halloween Town


New York & Co. Dolman Sweater/ Express Jeans/ Route 66 Rain Boots/ Scarf, TJ Maxx

I had so much fun celebrating Halloween all weekend long! We put the finishing touches on our Halloween decor, went to the Dell'osso Family Farm Pumpkin Patch, carved pumpkins, watched Halloween movies, and went to a Hillbilly themed Halloween party! How did you celebrate Halloween this year?

Feeling Thrifty

Merona Top/ Leather Skirt, vintage/ Bamboo Heels/ Rebecca Minkoff Bag/ Bershka Necklace/ Forever 21 Bracelets/ Michael Kors Watch
Since I had the day off on Friday, my boyfriend and I got to sleep in and do some shopping. We scored some major deals and got plenty of relaxation in. It's so rare to have a day with no plans or 'to-do's so it was a great treat for us! Hope you all enjoyed your weekend too!

A City Wedding

Laundry by Shelli Segal Dress/ Badgley Mischka Shoes/ Alexis Hudson Clutch/ Apt. 9 Pashmina
I always love weddings! From seeing the bride walk down the aisle, to the speeches and getting down on the dance floor....I love every minute! This past Saturday I attended a gorgeous wedding in the city. I knew it was going to be an amazing evening as we drove over the Bay Bridge and the sun was beaming. We had the time of our lives and it got me thinking about taking on a side job. I mean if Vince and Owen did it, I think my boyfriend and I could definitely pull off the whole Wedding Crasher gig!

We had a great view from the balcony at our hotel, Hello clear skies and sunshine

Gotta love adding a sequined clutch to make a muted outfit pop!
I loved the name cards and that each table was named after somewhere in the city!

Harvest Scarf-Vest

L.E.I Dress/ Scarf, souvenir from The Royal Mile, Scotland/ Forever 21 Coat/ Lulus Belt/ Rebecca Minkoff Bag/ Christian Louboutin Mary Janes/ Michael Kors Watch/ Kate Spade Sunglasses
 Even though the weather was in the 80s again this weekend I wanted to find a way to start incorporating fall pieces into my outfits. So I put on my favorite lightweight dress, added a scarf {turned vest} and a thin coat to polish off the look. The only thing I was missing was an iced pumpkin spiced latte {I'm obsessed!}!
