Yes folks it’s that time of the year (season) where I am looking at jackets, coats, sweaters and all things to keep me warm during the winter months. Although winters in San Francisco are not as harsh as anywhere else, we do enjoy an extra layer for looks and on occasion for warmth. (Although some may consider it the other way around) Here are some of my favorite going out jackets

Indian Summer is a tricky thing in my opinion and here in San Francisco is one in between seasons the locals welcome, since that’s when the weather is warmer and the sun is out full force.

My jaw dropped, almost to the ground, when I saw these beautiful gowns by Hannibal Laguna here and I have to say, they are a clear reminder of old classic hollywood glamour.
Wedding gowns maybe, but what I’d consider wearing to a formal black and white ball, usually held in San Francisco in May. Thank you Vera Wang.
One of my favorite designers, Bottega Veneta, lucky for me, has a boutique on Union Square, so I often times walk by and admire everything so perfectly hung or arranged through the store. Here’s a look at some of my favorites from the early fall collection
