on a sunny afternoon

me in my casual flea market attire. photo by jennine.
so today i decided to try something new and share a few photos from my weekend. i’m considering this practice, since i’m not used to carrying my camera around and documenting anything besides my outfits, but i would love to start expanding to show you some of the other things i do besides just getting dressed! on this particular day, i met up with jt and dyanna of the sf style at the alameda flea market, but i kinda forgot to get a picture of them! we had a nice time strolling around and checking out the vendors. i can’t say there were very many deals, but there was certainly a great selection of vintage clothing and antiques.

when i finally remembered that i had my camera, the flea market was already winding down, so i got lots of shots of the atmosphere out by the bay. i did run into jennine of the coveted who just moved back to san francisco about a week ago, and managed to get a few shots of her while we chatted away about the bay area, fashion blogging, and the age appropriateness of certain skirt lengths! if you’re not familiar with jennine, you should be! she’s the founder of independent fashion bloggers and she’s such a sweetheart! don’t you just loooove her cynthia rowley sunglasses? perfect for such a sunny sunday afternoon.

the flea market. note the little sailboats out in the background.
big cranes and loads of cargo out on the port.
super pretzels.
hello mr. albatross.
the view of san francisco from the sunny side of the bay. goodbye flea market!
what’s this? the day is not over! torta time!
i did it. i took a picture of my food. it was delicious.
ending the day with a beer. apparently it made me really really happy. actually, brendan was snapping my photo and i was making a serious face so he told me not to smile, which is the best trick to get someone to smile for reals.

    I've been catching up on your blog archives over the past few weeks and I love it.

    First off, I wanted to tell you I love the nonchalant look you have in all of your photos.

    THEN, I came upon this last photo. You have a gorgeous smile. It looks so sincere!
