  1. totally love the color combo — one of my favorite mixes and you wear color so well!


  2. they must have some good thrift stores in SF, or you are amazimgly good at finding things!


  3. Love this outfit!! I think it’s one of my favorites on you.

    BTW, I wanted to call your attention to a big thrifting opportunity this next weekend. Oakland Museum White Elephant Sale. There’s a shuttle from the Fruitvale Bart Station. The second day (Sunday) of the sale everything is half price, which means it’s a little pricy on Saturday. However, if you’re looking for something specific and wonderful, chances are it will be gone by Sunday. Last year I scored some *lovely* antique laces on Sunday, but I was open to finding anything. It can be very crowded, but I always find some gems there. I’ll be there in line when it opens on Saturday morning, and possibly again on Sunday morning.


  4. You and your hair look great! I especially like the red leggings. Winter has left me colour starved.


  5. Love the color! Orange and blue are great.
