Looks like it's still summertime there. Ahh! So, I think I'll be going to Mountainview with my boyfriend in November or December when he goes for work. How far is that from you?

You are so lucky -- I LOVE exploring midtown! I used to work there and I'd try to spend every minute of my 30-minute lunch break walking around midtown. Sigh! I love Curtis Park too. Miss that area a lot.

Love the striped top and socks combo too! Very cool.

Adrienne said...

Fierce and fabulous as always! Stripes are eternal :)

stripes are SO rosebud! that outfit looks familiar!!

FASHION TALES said...

The stripe knee-high stockings are so cool like you, but even cooler are those fringe boots= fab! How can one say no to fringe! :)

Heather Fonseca said...

Very cute outfit! I've put my stripes away until March because, for some weird reason, I like them best in the spring. But in all honesty I pretty much look just like you do in this picture every day of the week: denim skirt, flip flops, t-shirt.
