Lomo adventures, pt. 5 - Puttin' on the Ritz

Spring has found its way to San Francisco during this lovely, sunny, triple holiday weekend! Happy, happy, happy to everyone!!!

Yesterday my boyfriend and I made a last minute decision to go out for afternoon tea at the Palace Hotel downtown. It was an early Valentine's gift and it was a perfect day!! Sun, pink blossoms, and cotton dresses with no tights!!! A miracle! The sun is shining again today so I better skip the yappings so I can get outside! But here, are some photos from our day.

My dress for the day...

  7. THIS WEATHER IS SO LOVELY! Surprising little Valentine treat! Which is exactly what you look like!

    Hope your tea was delicious and the park was green!

    ps. I'm adding this to places to check out next time we're up. You need to to compile a good list of places to visit besides Haight/Ashbury. I need new ideas from a local!

  15. i wish trees were blooming where i live and that it would be warm enough to wear a dress without wool stockings underneath and a sweater over top.
