OnTheRacks

This was our last full weekend spent living in San Francisco, and it couldn’t have been better. In attempt to rid ourselves of replaceable household odds and ends, we threw a “garage” sale (sans garage) in our living room on Saturday. While we were able to offload a number of things, it was the afternoon spent drinking Coronas on our stoop, with friends and neighbors, that made it a real success in my book.

This week is dedicated to tying up remaining loose ends and checking those final need-to-do SF activities off our bucket list. It’s been a great ride over the past seven years, and saying goodbye to this place is going to be tough. But the end of this chapter marks the beginning of another, and I can’t wait to make new memories in New York City!

Just a little mash up of things that I like. You know, Lola, Blake, shoes, wine…

I will admit it, I have become a bit of an instagram junkie. Follow along for updates and snapshots from my daily grind.

Confession: I copied my girls Liz and Blair with this roundup idea. What can I say? It’s a cute one!

This past Tuesday I had the pleasure of co-hosting Shop It To Me’s #TreatYourself brunch in NYC with the lovely Christine of Court + Hudson and Helena of Brooklyn Blonde! It was a fun-filled morning of mimosas, massages and mingling at Joy Cioci’s gorgeous studio in SoHo. LOVE her designs, can you believe that neon green laser cut leather dress?!

Made new friends and caught up with old ones (like Christina pictured above!). If only I had an excuse to indulge like this every Tuesday.  OH, and not only did I get to celebrate Treat Yourself Tuesday w/ the brunch, but I also curated my very own Pop-Up shop for SITM as well…click here to check out my picks.

Lately I have been drawn to all things shimmery. So clearly the second I laid eyes on this hologram-like sparkly thing from Anarchy Street, I knew it had to be mine! Paired with a lacy tee for a bit of contrast and my go-to clunky platform boots and was on my merry way.

My parents are coming to town tomorrow and then we are off to Napa for wine tasting. Party time!! Following me on twitter? Stay tuned for what will likely be drunken tweets and instagrams along the way. ♥

This weekend we decided to flee the city and head to Sausalito for an afternoon of eating and drinking by the beach. We hit a cool new spot called Bar Bocce – where you can hang by a fire pit, sip sangria, and even toss around a ball in the sand, if you so desire. Not only that but they have a killer thin crust pizza. SOLD!

A New York flashback. Love that damn city…more and more every time I visit. ♥

NYPD’s finest, Radenroro preso, my man behind the lens, Lincoln Center at sundown, Totto Ramen, Empire lounge, Mr. Newton, Jean Georges chocolates and other cool things…

The past week has been a whirlwind. But I am back in action, ready to rumble! New York was a blast. Among my handful of closet additions are these sweet ass Alexander Wang heels. AND I got them on sale (score!). Though I probably should have zipped my wallet closed after purchasing…never drink and shop. :)

And now, for the really good stuff…the winner of the Thrifted Kimono isssssss…SHANNON S. from California. Congrats, girl! Thanks SO much to everyone who entered, and stay tuned for another super awesome giveaway next month. <3

Spent part of the weekend in sleepy Santa Cruz…which included lounging on the beach, strolling the boardwalk, and a little vintage shopping. Strong sunshine + QT with the people I love = my kind of holiday.

Returned home to enjoy strong margaritas, BBQ’d cheeseburgers and firework gazing. The past three days went by in the blink of an eye…time sure flies when you’re having fun! Hope y’all had a marvelous 4th. <3

Anyone as excited as I am for 4th of July and the long weekend? Our big plans include margarita making, a quick trip to Santa Cruz and staying in bed ’til noon at least once.

So looking forward to a little time on the road, time with good friends and a fireworks show to top it all off. Enjoy the sunshine, lovelies! <3

Last week I had the huge pleasure of spending the day with my friends at ThreadSence for this super cool Mixology feature! I arrived to find racks of jaw dropping pieces, and was able to style them however I wanted — like a kid in a candy store, I tell you. Nothing says summer like a pair of cutoff short shorts or a giant sunhat. When it comes to fashion, I just love this time of year. Click the images above to see the ingredients for each style! <3
