What to Wear: Evening in San Francisco

What to Wear: Evening in San Francisco

Remember Mary? We helped her find something to wear to a wedding in Yosemite a few months ago. She had another question:

Okay, I don’t know if we’re allowed to come back for seconds but I was trying to figure out what to wear to my best friend Alice’s birthday celebration in San Francisco next weekend, and I realized there was probably no one better to ask than you! I think the plan is to go out for a tapas-type dinner and then go to a few bars for drinks? Not really sure, but at any rate, I’d like to look cute. I have a pair of shoes that I bought recently that I’d love to work around, because I don’t have many opportunities to wear them.

Dressing for a night out in San Francisco is fun because you can basically wear anything you want! It should just be a little “creative” and warm enough for our cold evenings. Here’s my recommendation:

Sweater – A kimono sweater will flatter Mary’s curvy frame. It’s a fun silhouette for dinner, but still warm enough for walking between restaurant and bar without a coat.
Jeans – A flattering dark pair of jeans is appropriate for nearly anything in this city.
Earrings – Bright chandelier earrings add fun and color (and they tie in with Mary’s blue shoes).
Clutch – I love this bag! It’s a bit expensive but perfect for San Francisco.
Shoes – Blue and gold sandals bring a bit of summer to this ensemble.

Have fun in the city!
