Thirty-Two

And so begins my last week in San Francisco.... (Part 1)


Sunday:
The week couldn't have begun better. I started it with brunch with my aunt at Cavallo Point in Sausalito, right over the Golden Gate bridge. I'm so glad I was able to see my aunt before I left for Seattle, she's such a wonderful woman and such a fun person to be around. I always say that I'm going to be like her when I'm older (as in the wild, fun and loud aunt). Later in the evening I met up with Avalonne, Ashley, and Raina for some shopping, food and coffee. I've been trying to be good about not spending money but I couldn't help but buy the blouse that I'm wearing the in the very last photograph from Forever 21 and a hat from Urban Outfitters that was on sale for $10..I mean c'mon!

Monday:
Spent the day packing, packing, packing! Then headed over to my friend Sean's apartment to take a breather and watch Private Benjamin.



Tuesday:
Swimming and Barbecuing in Marin with all my favorite boys. These are probably the people I will miss the most when I leave. My most fun and memorable moments are with these boys!



























Wednesday:
Had a picnic in Union Square with my good friend Lauren and then we went for pedicures afterwards at a nearby salon. Unfortunately, my only documentation of this is on my purchased disposable camera, which you will have to wait to see once photos are developed. But it was a wonderful day altogether! We spent most of our pedicure being hassled by the pedicurist's there; trying to get us spend more money on things we didn't need. We were amused by it. Below is the outfit I wore today though.

Leaving is always a bit sad, even if you're moving on to other good things. Looks like you're leaving in style though.. it's important to eat, drink and be merry in final weeks as much as possible!

you and your friends are so sweet! I would love to see Seattle, you must be excited! Never stop yourself from buying on impulse, you'll regret it later - unless it's hugely expensive of course! x

Arielle said...

Bryce-Those are my favorite trousers! and just because of that amazing color ;)

Lisa-Aw, thanks! it's going to be hard to say goodbye to this beautiful city but it's reassuring to know that I'm on to better things!

Hayley-You are too sweet and modest! You have amazing style yourself and I'm not just saying that :) I love looking at all the photo's you post

Shelby-It's funny because they all have bottomless pits as stomachs! I've never known anyone that can and does eat as much as they do

Emily-Agreed!!! I'm trying to soak in all the good stuff not think about those goodbye tears

Jasmine-Thank you! That hat is definitely one of my favorite finds. I'm just so thankful I was able to experience SF for the last 3 years, it's been so good to me

Lulu and the Locket-if you ever make it to Seattle you have a place to stay! and I mean it :) It's such a beautiful city, I'm excited to go back. I have the same motto as you about shopping (especially with thrift/vintage finds)-as long as you're not putting yourself in too much debt..buy buy buy!

Eunice-trust me I feel your pain! summer in San Francisco is basically considered our winter time. it's been nothing but dreary and cold weather except for this week! but still..the strong winds make it cold. we had to travel outside the city to experience a little bit of summer!


Thanks to everyone else for all the wonderful comments! I am really enjoying myself and it's already been such a memorable last week

Briana Teresa said...

Holy cow I love your outfit! Very few people can pull off hats as gracefully as you do, and I'm not one of them. I'm jealous.

Haha anyway, your blog is lovely.

Mel said...

Yay Cocola! I love that place! It totally reminds me of a French cafe (not that I've ever been to a real one). Your hats are so fabulous!
