1 timeless DVF Print. 1 Amazing photograher.  1 Perfect family.  
Absolutely LOVE these pictures and I feel like if Hal-myun ee saw these, she would be so proud.  Don't you agree?

I wonder how she would feel about me biking around the city in her vintage white Ferragamos.  EEK!

Workout Gear You Can Wear Out

Did you see how much air I got?  If only I had learned to played basketball...I could've taken my talents to South Beach.  

Let's talk about workout gear.  Thanks to brands like Lululemon and Adidas/Stella McCartney, women's athletic apparel which was once dowdy and dull is now fashionable and high-quality (= high end).  To which I say "AMEN!"

Some may balk at the price tag - $78 for a pair of basic black leggings - but you'll get more than your money's worth.  I wear my gear EVERYWHERE: Bar Method, Soul Cycle (thanks for getting me addicted, cousin), the supermarket, to run errands, on the plane, lounging around at home, etc...  My new hoodie is already broken in after NYC.  I got it for a steal at the net-a-porter sale and highly recommend you check out what's left before it's gone!

Work It!

Very random but you know those groups of older people in the park speed walking?  Well how perfect would this ensemble be for that crew?  Do you think I would just blend in?  Or would they just be too cool and leave me in the dust?  Even though I'm born and raised in NYC, I can't seem to walk as fast as the typical "New Yorker".  Maybe these cool "kids" can teach me something!  

BTW, you know I live in my work out clothing so don't be surprised if you see a couple of more posts with athletic wear.  I can be quite sneaky about it and just blend it in with my "normal" clothes.

Epic Packing Fail

Lets talk about an epic packing fail.  
I really should have listened to everyone who warned me about the schizophrenic weather in SF.  Thank goodness I was able to manage to walk around in your Uggs-- complete lifesaver!  Only redeeming part of my outfit fails was that you let me sport your super duper lux sweater and vest!  Oh, and loved those new sunnies, but you know I had to part with them.  Wah, wah, wah!

Anyway, thank Steph for me as I'm sure she thought I was a photo hog!  Time for you to meet my uber talented photographer, Bo!

See you on the east coast-- the best coast.

Cousin.

We Heart SF

I had such a blast with you in SF!  We packed in A LOT during those four days.  I'm still dreaming about that sick dim sum-style dinner at State Bird Provisions and the bomb jjajangmyeon at Zazang House (I went back a few days later).   

If only we didn't live on opposite sides of the country...but hey, that's what planes are for.  I can't wait to see you next week in NYC!

xoxo, Linda
