SATURDAYS









On most Saturday afternoons, I can be found wandering around the Grand Lake Farmers Market and the Lake Merritt neighborhood of Oakland. This has become something that I look forward to every week. Farmers markets in the Bay Area are pretty serious business. Besides the amazing amount of fresh, locally grown produce and goods that can be acquired for a pittance in comparison to most organic groceries, the people watching is some of the best in The Bay. Oakland is such a vibrant, colorful & diverse city. It's definitely a place that has stolen my heart. Though, I digress. This isn't really a post about farmers markets at all (which I really should do in the future). This is more a quick attempt at showing you something I've worn recently, which just so happened to be during a Saturday spent wandering around Lake Merritt.

Farmers markets are so much fun! Going to them always makes me want to dash home and eat a giant salad. :p

Grand Lake and Lake Merritt are a couple of the coolest neighborhoods in the Bay Area. You're a lucky lucky girl.
