Dear Viewers,
I
decided to change up the format slightly and add more pictures. These
photographs were taken in San Francisco on Haight-Ashbury St. by my reliable self-timer!
The City was so beautiful and I was feeling so inspired that I had to feature
and share them with you. Besides the fact that it isn’t creepy at all when passerby’s
see me and eyeball in wonder, why on earth is this girl taking pictures of
herself. Oh well?! Let me start by saying I admire the fact that the location I
chose was perfect! San Francisco is a place to absorb creativity, urban
culture, aesthetic people and architecture. I could explain so much more in
greater detail, but in order to truly understand what I am talking about you
have to experience it for yourself. Although for those of you who have been, have
an idea of what I am trying to say. I only say this because all people
experience visiting The City in there own way. It is all how you interpret art,
appreciate structural beauty and honor the history. What comes with the
greatness of being around such an influential atmosphere is the walking street
fashion, from which I gravitate towards the most. I chose to wear what I wore
today, because one, this California weather is starting to heat up and shorts
and a shirt sounded logical. Second, only the brave and skilled strut the
pavement in however high inched heels in SF. With that said, flats were my best
bet! My motive and inspiration came from Olive Oyl (Popeye the Sailors Gf). You
can never go wrong with a 50’s modern twist and a hint of sailor crew syndrome. Which brings me to tell you how I found this vintage
50’s clothing boutique called Bettie Page Clothing www.bettiepageclothing.com. Boy
was I so excited to try on everything, it is so fun and exciting to dress up in
clothes from our grandparents past time! I am telling you this store was the
cherry on top of my evening, even the store employees where in character. They
were all dolled and pinned up with rolled up sleeves, combed greased hair, red
lips and high wasted trousers! Definitely a store you do not want to miss when
on Haight St., along with many others! Moving right along, I almost forgot to
tell you all that I am finally going to New York!!! Yes, I get to marvel in the
Big Apple, words can’t describe how remotely excited I am! Not until I get back
will I be posting any features, until then I am going to have so many
amazing photos and outfits to share that I wore and took while in NY! So make sure to stay
posted! My fashion motto for today is, having little money is no excuse to
looking golden, those with passion and creativity will make ends meet, if you
feel luminous inside, trust that the light WILL always shine through.
