Style On The Go

My everyday wardrobe has taken a major turn over the past two weeks. I am finding myself running around the city like a mad woman + doing my best to stay comfortable, yet still look chic. This is not easy. 90% of the time I am dragging Benji along, toting around my camera, laptop + an additional outfit AND running late!
These pictures were snapped right before a shoot. I knew I would be squeezing myself into some fabulous pieces and had to arrive hair + make up ready. I opted for a white button down (hair + make up friendly), work out pants (hush) and these AMAZING shoes from The Blonde Salad. What I love most about these pants is that YES, they are work out pants but they are so much more than that! These bad boys flatten the tummy, lift the rear, reduce the hips + slim the thighs. They are beyond flattering and provided me with the just ego boost I needed before getting in front of the camera. 

Check out a little sneak peek from yesterdays shoot with Inspirare + Jennymay.

Summer Layers

I am pretty sure this picture says it all.
There is no need for me to insert the oh-so famous Mark Twain quote. We all know, Summer in San Francisco is cold!
The funny thing about the day we snapped these shots however, is that we started in sunny North Beach and by the time we parked in the Marina the weather had gone from calm + sunny to windy + freezing. The unpredictable weather in San Francisco has taught us to always bring a  stylish layering piece (to avoid looking like a tourist in the weird hoodies from Fisherman’s Wharf) and to stock up on some fashionable yet warm basics—> Insert Marine Layer.

Green Juice at the beach? Absolutely!
The crew at Project Juice is cranking out some cold-pressed juice that literally knocked my socks off. After quite a few long nights celebrating the 4th + my new job, my body was begging for me to drop the beer + pick up some juice.

Last night I had the pleasure of attending the Summer Soiree at the Marine Layer workshop. I am a major fan of the Marine Layer brand + I am also major fan of the hostesses for the evening Donna from So You Agree… + Carlina from Allergic to Vanilla. I had a blast partying with these ladies + shopping the oh-so amazing Marine Layer collection live from their San Francisco workshop/headquarters.

Dressing for this event was easy, since these Marine Layer shorts have been in heavy rotation this season + have proven themselves to be a staple in my wardrobe. Paired with a classic Equipment blouse + RayBan aviators, this look was perfect for a night out with the girls + a sweet summer stroll home with Benji.

Once again I present to you my OOTD from my bed…this is awesome!
For this look I paired two boyfriend styles together. While this would normally be a fashion no-no in my book, they both give off just enough of the over-sized boyfriend effect without being sloppy or too baggy paired together. I have lived in these ‘Sexy Boyfriend Jeans’  (and they are on sale) all summer + I knew that with a sexy heel this look would work. The BeGood, Greenwich shirt is the ultimate easy no fuss woven. The button placement is next to perfect. No camisole, no problem ladies!
