Mary Van DAAAMN!
My sister is in town visiting from Portland, OR. We had a big day starting with a good lunch with our Dad and step-mom at Burma Superstar and then ice cream at Toy Boat on Clement Street. Then we drove to the Sunset and our Dad showed us the house he grew up in until he was 11 years old. From there we went to Stow Lake in Golden Gate Park and went paddle-boating! We stopped by the conservatory of flowers and peeked at the dahlia garden and then my sister and I did some quick shopping on Haight Street. I scored an amazing black and lacy vintage Jantzen swimsuit (I’ll definitely do a post on it), and a nice white blouse. Phew.
I wore some shorts I picked up at a thrift store. I added a scalloped hem, much like the other pair I did. This time I left them a little longer. Unfortunately because they’re lighter you can see any mistakes I made from sewing, but whatever, I love ‘em!
