when two of my best friends moved to san francisco nearly five years ago, i remember being so excited for them. sure, it would mean that they would no longer be just a short drive away (unless your version of a "short drive" is 8 hours), but they were embarking on a new chapter of ...
it's the weekend, it's the weekend! happy friday, loves! at long last S and my san francisco trip has arrived and i can't wait to pack up our stuff and head down to charles lindbergh this afternoon. but before i do, here are the six items that had me smitten all week long: one || dress ...
