modcloth blushing ambition dress, vintage loafers + sunglasses
Classic example of always wanting what you can't have: a couple days ago I was complaining about how cold it's been all summer and today I am reduced to one big pile of sweat in 90+ degree weather. I finally got to wear my namesake dress from Modcloth with this change in weather but still, why couldn't it go from 60s to upper 70s instead of jumping 30 whole degrees in a few days? Yeah, yeah, it could be much worse but jeeeeez. I'm just not used to this. I can't even form full sentences.
Wore this out to get ice cream and shop around Hayes Valley for a little. Brent bought a pair of awesome woven YMC oxfords while I oogled these Rachel Comey booties at Gimme shoes. One positive thing about the heat? My inability to spend money and buy any new clothes or shoes when all I wanted to do at that moment was to take everything off and lay around in an air conditioned room. If this weather continues into the school year I am going to pull a tantrum à la Zack Galifinakis: "IT'S NOT FUN WHEN IT'S SO HOT!!"
ETA: I look way too happy in these photos. I think it was the 6:00pm breeze that was rolling in, holy shit that felt so good. I just can't function in the heat, that's why I live in the bay area after all...

you look adorable.
I love that dress! Looks great on you.
when I was there two weeks ago I was dying when it was 60 degrees so I can only imagine how nice it finally feels!
This color looks perfect on you. I like the length and cut of this dress. Cute details, the contrasting buttons on the straps and the belt accent the dress perfectly.
The unbearable heat here in the NYC region was why I spent about 90% of this summer holed up in my bedroom (the only room in my apt. with AC). I highly recommend it as a way to cope with the heat!
I love the dress! You look cute in it.

Super cute! Your namesake dress looks great on you. We're having an absurd heat wave in LA too...it's like summer finally decided to rear it's sweltering head.
Went to Porto's today in Burbank because I was in the area and remembered that post you made a few weeks ago and how I drooled over those photos for hours. Got the...Cubano I think? And I have to say, I think I just found my new favorite café, thanks to you and your foodie pics. The guy even gave me two free pastries because it was my first time ;)

I live where the weather is in the 90s and sometimes above 100 all year around. Trust me, you never get used to it!
Okay well, I do empathize in the sense that 90 is way too hot. But it has been miserable on the East Coast, at least where I am. Rainy and what-not. I like the dress though--Was it your design or was it designed with you in mind? I wasn't sure how that worked. And I always like your sunglasses.
That dress is amazing! I love modcloth. So many cute things :)

Haha that's pretty funny. According to my google calculations, that's not that hot. Ok, it's hot, but no-one is quite as shocked in Australia when it hits that temp. I am thankful I moved back to brisbane, because I used to live in a place where a light breeze was winter.
The dress is lovely btw, very ladylike!
You look adorable in that dress! Rightfully so - it is your namesake dress! I especially love the back view, and your hair just compliments it. We actually finally had a chilly day where I live!
Mmmhmmm look at miss Dora-no-more. Got that hair + your namesake dress workin' gurrrrrrrrl.

I´m with you. I love living in SF for the weather but oh men this heat is nuts, I can´t function in this. All I did today was go to the mall to be in the AC.
You look lovely in the dress :)

I can't stand Australian summers either. It's too much sometimes. But that dress definitely looks perfect for the weather!
I love the vintage loafers! So cute! xx

That dress looks perfect on you, love the little belt that goes around. And the weather...oh, the weather...haha, I finally got use to the humid muggy weather in NY and then all of the sudden it drops down to October weather and then on top of it it's raining everyday. I guess gradual isn't part of the weather's vocabulary.
Your namesake dress is too adorable, just like you. Hope it cools down for you soon:)

Very lovely and very pretty! This hairstyle suits you very well with this outfit!

I'm not sure if you've heard about Bar Agricole yet, but since you're SF foodies I thought I'd give you a heads up :) It's supposed to be fantasic!
Super cute. Love it!
You look so pretty and cute despite the heat! And wow, another one of my favourite bloggers has an own Modcloth dress. I love how they name dresses after bloggers, that's such a cool thing! :)
Yeah you rock!
You look so beautiful and so funny!
I'm happy cause like me you have skinny legs but your belly, your shouders and your arms are more "chubby". Indeed, on my opinion we looks like British girls! (I'm french aha :p but shhhh ^^)
Wholesale, you remove my hangs up! Tx you so much!
Keep up the good work!
Your dress is just beautiful! I must get one!

Not that we live too far from the bay area but I am still shocked to hear how hot it got there, it being the place we usually go to escape the heat here in Sacramento. Dude. Glad its over!
