Fall Looks Featuring Napa and The Bay…

07.19.13

As my summer travels is San Francisco commence, I am excited to continue sharing my looks and highlights of my trip so far. On Tuesday, we toured the famous Alcatraz Island, and hiked some of Muir woods. It was free-zing, but my leather jacket, beret and chartreuse scarf kept me warm. Leather is definitely going to be a great trend for this fall (wow, big surprise, right? NOT!) It gives any look a chic edge. The quilted details on the shoulder are my favorite part about this jacket. Look out for elegant details, like this one, on leather this coming fall season. Also, leather appliques are an amazing and chic upgrade to leggings and pants. Add a scarf with a pop of color, and you are good to go! Easy and fabulous fall outfit to throw on.

Although I am loving San Francisco, by the next post, you are about to see that Napa Valley stole my heart; the scenery, the wine, the food, the aroma in the crisp valley air…I can go on and on. The pictures really don’t do it justice. From the tastings in a historical castle, to champagne in a cave, to the famous director Francis Coppola’s Vineyard, Napa was a beautiful and charming experience. Anyways, I went very casual with this look because we were traveling by car quite a bit, and hopping around from vineyard to vineyard, so I wanted to be comfortable. I like this look because it is a great transition outfit from summer to fall using layers.  Layering will always be your best friend in the fall season, and is always in style. I layered a silk striped button down under a sweater, then added a statement necklace to give the casual outfit a bit of sparkle and flair. Just in case it got a little too chilly, I brought along a green anorak jacket to throw on.
