As we head towards the holiday season, we are seeing cozier pieces, berry hues, and a continuation of timeless style.

Holiday nail polish is dark, accessories are neutral, jeans are still wide, and adding color is in hibernation until the spring season. So, continue to invest in neutrals so it will be easier to add new hues in the spring season!

Have you started your holiday shopping? I love finishing before Thanksgiving. Check out my gift guides for inspiration!

Burgundy sweater for fall

wearing: earrings / sunglasses / burgundy sweater / holiday nail polish / wide leg jeans / belted tote / chocolate brown boots / Pasta: Bolognese from Trattoria Da Vittorio

It was a beautiful fall day in the city! I recently went to San Francisco for a quick meeting and decided not to waste my one-hour drive up there. So, I took my mom and hubby with me and we quickly played tourist after the meeting. It’s always fun to play tourist on a weekday during the off-season when there are less people around.

We drove down the crooked part of Lombard and my husband filmed it for me. You’ll be able to check out the video on Instagram this morning. After our drive, we hit a few other places then went over West Portal for lunch.

I am not sure why we though parking in West Portal would be easy. Quite the contrary. Thankfully, we eventually got lucky and found someone pulling out of a spot. Yay! Parking! If you live in the Bay Area, you know the feeling when you find street parking in the city. Yipee!

Since there was an Italian restaurant near our parking spot, that became our lunch spot. We enjoyed pasta and relaxing after circling for parking.

This burgundy sweater was perfect for the mild fall weather since it isn’t too thick and on the lighter side. Love! It will be perfect to wear throughout the remainder of the fall season and into the holiday and winter seasons. Since it’s not bulky, it is easy to layer under a coat. Love that!

I hope you are enjoying the fall season and mixing a little relaxation in with business. The crazy holiday season is fast approaching! Enjoy fall now!
