Outfit and Occasion

Outfit:

H&M shirt (Shalom Shuk, Burlington), $3.00, Floral pants (Old Navy, Williston), $8.99 on sale, H&M pleather bag (Shalom Shuk, Burlington), $2.00, Pleather jacket (Forever21, White Plains), around $20.00

I wear these new, blue floral pants practically every day because they are fun and most importantly, stretchy!  I also love that they were $9!  The brightness of this yellow shirt creates one sun-shiny outfit (contrasting cloudy, ominous  San Fran skies)

Occasion:

SAN FRANSISCO – Visiting my best friend, Julia, attending an employment conference, and visiting my cousin, Amanda!!

Attractions 

Botanical Gardens

             

I was literally in heaven wandering around this HUGE, jungle-like garden.  Tons of rustic paths and benches to reflect as you pass through flowers, plants, and trees from around the world.  My new favorite place!

Haight Ashbury

Here’s an extreme example of what Haight Ashbury/hippie-central has to offer.  I was in heaven in this area with tons of vintage, thrift, and funky shops!

The Mission

This area is known for it’s graffiti and here are just a few examples.  Had fun scanning the beauty and the progressive messages!

Ferry Building

Awesome indoor market with wonderfully delicious speciality shops that all have SAMPLES!  My favorites were Cowgirl Creamery, a cheese shop and Dandelion, a famous chocolate shop.

Fishermans Wharf

Touristy area that is reminiscent of Disney Land, but the best part was seeing the sealions on the pier – hundreds just chillen.

Painted Ladies (“Full House”)

Where all the Tanner family fun took place!!

Food

Home Skillet by Civic Center

I waited for just a bit too long on a line out the door, but this breakfast sandwich with turkey, egg, pesto, and everything nice on brioche was UNREAL.  The latte was also one of the best I’ve ever had.

Bi-Rite Creamery

   

This ice cream is rated as one of the best food attractions in San Fransisco.  I got the roasted banana flavor in a salted peanut butter cookie.  YUM!

Burritos in The Mission

Gotta get a ginormous burrito when you’re in The Mission area.  This area has so many cute shops as well!

Home made caprese

 

Whole Foods – if only we had you in Burlington!  This light meal was so so fresh and an amazing taste sensation!
