These were the only shots we got in San Francisco over the weekend. But for good reason. We traveled with my parents for their 40th wedding anniversary. We went for our honeymoon years ago and they had never been, so while my parents were sightseeing B and I were going down memory lane. To spare you the details, but there were lots of heart eyes all weekend.
But since we were busy being tourists, the days slipped by so fast we were rarely able to grab a shot. (Sometimes those are the best vacations!) We went to dinner one evening and on the way there, spotted this magical park across from the SFMOMA. We happily jumped out and snapped a few of my pretty new dress. Luckily my date always comes along with a camera. I was so excited for a warm spell in San Francisco because it meant that packing this dress was not in vain. Although I would have worn this dress come hell or high water because I love it that much. As the evening cooled, I did wish for my tall grey boots but that’s another outfit for another day.
That’s my favorite thing about buying dresses for this in between season, right before fall. I can always style them for now with heels but I like to imagine them with tall boot or booties later. Or with layers. Or with coats. Ah, the possibilities of fall are so exciting, aren’t they?
TL;DR: I love my dress and can’t wait to wear it again.

That park opposite SFMOMA is seriously the most gorgeous! Did you guys go to the special tea restaurant at the top of it? Out of all the places in San Francisco that’s probably my favourite because of the amazing view. (Yes, an even bigger favourite than the Madewell store. ;-P ) Shame you didn’t do any outfit photos in the Mission, they have so many stunning wall murals there that would’ve made awesome backdrops for you! 🙂
Oh my gosh no!! I had no idea! We will have to go back to that restaurant when we come again! Thanks for the rec!
I know on the photo front but it was fun to spend time with my parents! We have already made plans to go back because of all the great places we missed!! I can not wait!
Stunning, babe! Welcome to SF:P

Hi Kendi, This is random but with your new layout I realllly miss not being able to click on prior months. (i.e. click on just September from several previous years) I used to do that especially with the changing seasons just to remind myself of outfit ideas. Maybe this could be implemented back into your blog as an option again?!? That’d be awesome if so:) It takes a loooong time to try and go back to previous years (and even previous months) as it is now.
Happy (almost) holiday weekend!
