Leggings: I wore them to death when I was little (as almost every girl from my generation, born in the 80’s). Then I stopped, they were not trendy anymore, and back to them in 2005! (I have had a love-hate relationship ever after, almost like a boyfriend-girlfriend thing). For a moment I thought this trend was fading out, that its time was over, but no… every single magazine/website is working hard on extending their days in the market. Last year I saw the liquid leggings for the first time; it’s a super cool nylon/spandex blend…

You can wear them with an oversized shirt, a dress, a skirt, a tank top… with flats, high heels, sneakers, boots or oxford shoes; it’s your choice, your call!

Was walking around Alamo Sq when I saw this gal talking to her friends (I guess) and  it was necessary for me to apply the best paparazzi style and capture the moment (Come on!!! I got to show you what I see!)

One of the magical things of going to flea markets is to lay back and see what’s happening and to listen the history behind every single thing sold. In this case the head accessory is original from the 50′s. It was kept in very good shape and the girl who bought it could easily pull it off.

You might have been part of the Tourist Trap Alleycat www.trackstand.com.

Some moms wondered for their kids while they spinned around the city. The race started in the Polo Fields at the Golden Gate Park. The manifesto was an ad on The Onion -Girls, girls, girls- (note it was the last issue of this paper, as they no longer would be distributing in SF -sniff, sniff!). They went to 10 different places -around the city- signed the manifesto at the check points and got a beer at Madrone Lounge -the finish spot-.

My check point? Full House -of course-…Would you be able to name at least 5 characters of the show? -super hot Uncle Jesse, Danny Tanner, D.J, Steph, Kimmy, Michelle, Uncle Joey…

Fun! Fun! Fun!
