Sausalito

This outfit is from last week - a little afternoon trip to Sausalito. The main street was so crowded with tourists we decided to drive up to the hills and walk around the neighborhoods instead. It felt like we were in Europe!





I'm wearing a 60s gold tassel necklace that used to belong to my grandmother - whenever I visit the East Coat my mum always sends me back to California with little things she has stashed away. I brought this back from my last visit home! The sailor sweater coat was from Zara a few months back. I love how different versions of this coat keep going down the Retail chain - A.P.C. started things off, then Top Shop made a version, next was Zara... Forevs 21 it's your turn now! The antique crocheted blouse/sweater was a Christmas gift from my boyfriend. I'd been staring at it on ebay for months and months - considering cashing out my life insurance policy to buy it (well, no not really... but maybe just a little) and well, I'm not quite sure what I did to deserve it, but here it is! And the early 40s pleated skirt was a Christmas gift from Emily. (it's actually a slip dress - there's a sheer nylon bodice attached that goes perfectly under sheer blouses, like that sweater!) The shoes are probably my all time favorites, from sweet Maria's shop Adelaide Homesewn. And my tote, from the loveliest Field Guided.
