Black Booties + Silk Blouse {Repeated}

Vintage Silk Blouse, JBrand Cargos, JCrew Jewerly, Forever 21 Booties 
Tory Burch Purse, Diane von Furstenburg Sunglasses

You may remember my fall wish list, in which I mentioned an amazing pair of classic black Miu Miu booties. Well, I found a much cheaper option a month or so ago at good old Forever 21. They are not super comfortable and are actually too big (F21 never carries my size 5) but they did save me quite the pretty penny and so therefore were worth it! By the way, I found this silk blouse at Anica on Polk Street. I'm officially adding it to my "Best of Polk" list (see post here). I want to do more "best of" posts, anything in particular you would like to see? Perhaps, the best San Francisco vintage stores? I have a handful of favorites, but am still in search of more.
PS: I'm also eying Forever 21's Metal Studded Suedette Cuff Boots, for an edgier look.

I like the edgier feel of this outfit. The cuff is a nice touch. You look very tall in your pictures, I am shocked to find out that you are 5'1. What earrings are you wearing? They look pretty!

Alicia said...

@Kastles, wow, I'm surprised that you think I look tall! ;) My earrings are from JCrew.

I love everything; the silk top, the cargos, and those booties are icing on the cake.
I've been determined to find a silk top at the thirt store, but of course they are nowhere to be found.
I'll definitely check out this best of list because San Fran is the one city in California I want to visit but haven't gotten to yet.

Samantha said...

I love this outfit! The blouse is sweet but the cargos and accessories are a bit edgier. You look fabulous!

I absolutely love your style! So effortlessly chic...and I love the background. SF is one of my favorite weekend spots to visit...how about "see the city in two days" post?

Valerie said...

That is the CUTEST Tory purse!

Kimbirdy said...

i love those shoes! and i'm a size 5 too! isn't it the hardest thing to find shoes that actually fit? my poor feet are always struggling in too-big-for-me size 6's.

also, i would love to see more "best of" posts! i love the vintage store idea, and maybe you could also do best coffee, ice cream, and romantic spots to smooch? those are the kinds of things i love about san francisco anyway. :)

Kimbirdy said...

ps - do you ever run into the twins of knob hill? i never had my camera when i saw them, but they are the cutest and would make such a great "best of" post!

Alicia said...

@Kimbirdy, aww i love the twins, they're such cuties! i have photos of them on my iphone, but never seem to have my camera when i see them. thanks for all the great "best of" suggestions. ;)

Love everything out this outfit -- especially the Tory Burch purse!

First off the shoes are awesome!! And I love the relaxed look of the blouse with the hot heels. I always try on a billowy blouse with heels, but I somehow feel like it doesn't look right.

anhesty said...

love the photos!

crystalin said...

OMG I have found my size 5 sista! Never tried F21, always nervous they're going to hurt... what are your favorite brands?
