Hayes Valley San Francisco Shopping District
Hayes Valley, in my opinion, is one of the most underrated neighborhoods in San Francisco. Over the last few years, this area has truly begun to thrive with delicious restaurants like Suppenküche (mmmm… giant beers and potato pancakes), Absinthe and Bar Jules. Following suit, of course, was all the adorable boutiques we see today, creating [...]
SOMA San Francisco Shopping District
SOMA is one of the more industrial parts of our beautiful city. It houses a lot of start-ups, creative firms and agencies, not to mention some delicious restaurants (Salt House, mmmmm) but we rarely turn to it for our shopping needs. The first reason being that there’s not a huge amount of options and secondly, [...]
Laurel Heights SF Shopping District
Over the last few years I’ve developed an obsession for shopping in vintage and antique stores in San Francisco. It’s like I’m digging for buried treasure and when I finally find that special something its all the more sweet! I’ve uncovered some amazing things (a Marc Jacobs jacket, Gucci tote and a Dior blazer) and [...]
North Beach San Francisco Shopping District
North Beach San Francisco Shopping District North Beach is an interesting neighborhood. It’s one of the cities most heavily visited tourist destinations while somehow still maintaining its convenience, hip vibe and cohesive nature. In other words, if there was a popularity contest regarding our most beloved places to visit, live, play, shop, etc. in San [...]
Mission SF Shopping District
Eight years ago you’d rarely catch me in the Mission. I was a Marina girl at heart and anything past Market seemed light-years away. I was ignorant to the city’s vast blessings at least as far as shopping was concerned. To make things more challenging, there seemed to be a weird rival between the Mission [...]
Marina SF Shopping District
The good thing about having lived in Cow Hollow for 4 years is that not only was I exposed to Union Street shopping, I also had the Marina just across Lombard. Chestnut Street is a clothes and accessories hot zone; a fashionistas dream and wealthy mother’s escape. It’s not one of the most highly sought [...]
Union Square SF Shopping District
There are few places in the world that offer up a shopping experience like Union Square. People travel from all over the world just to roam the streets, spend money and pop in and out of extravagant boutiques. It’s hard to believe that I live just four blocks from ground zero in a neighborhood that [...]
Pacific Heights SF Shopping District
When I first moved to San Francisco the only thing that I was sure of was that I wanted to live in Pacific Heights. I had no idea that there were “neighborhoods” more sought after than others. I was originally looking into apartments in West Portal, Richmond and Sunset which, while they all have their [...]
Cow Hollow SF Shopping District
SF Shopping, Part I: Cow Hollow Having lived in San Francisco for over seven years now, I’ve done my fair share of exploring and boutique rummaging. Over those years of discovering and sifting through more merchandise than most people will see in a lifetime, I’ve managed to work my way through each and every one [...]
