sweater weather

Sweater: Tempest + Bentley; Jeans: Abercrombie & Fitch; Shoes: Manolo Blahnik; Wallet: Emerson Fry; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban; Lips: Marc Jacobs "Oh Miley"
This past Friday, I got together with some of my closest girlfriends for dinner at Wayfare Tavern and was instantly reminded how amazing they all are. They're business owners. They're entrepreneurs. They're blazing their own paths. And I love how inspired I always feel when I walk away from an evening like that. Good food and even better conversation about where we're all taking our careers, lives and big dreams. 
Which brings me to my latest obsession and sweater crush of the moment: Tempest + Bentley, started by my good friend, Marissa Goodman Thieriot. More to come on her amazing line this week, so in the meantime, here's a (sweater) teaser of what's in store.

extra mileage

3 minute read
Sweater: Everlane; Shirt: Bonmot; Pants: 3.1 Phillip Lim; Shoes: Manolo Blahnik; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban; Watch: Daniel Wellington
You may have noticed I've been doing a lot of remixing lately, especially when it involves this sleeveless Everlane turtleneck, this IRO jacket and these white Manolos. The truth is, I have quite a few big life changes on the horizon (all of which I'm super excited for, but don't want to jinx anything just yet by revealing too much) so I've been challenging myself to shop my closet more and more, holding out for well-timed sale splurges (ahem, like these Isabel Marant boots) that I know I'll get a lot of mileage out of. 
Speaking of remixing and extra mileage, I've recently been introduced to a new fashion community app, WEAR, that makes it incredibly easy to get inspiration and shop looks based on similar items in your closet (which is something I usually find myself doing with Google Images or Pinterest when I have something in my closet I haven't worn in a while). If you've been following This Time Tomorrow for a while now, you know I'm a sucker for discovering new fashion community sites, and even trekked out to the Bay Area to work for one (anyone remember Weardrobe?). There's something about getting wrapped up in a new community site that's so addicting -- and what I love about WEAR is their large international presence. Lots of style eye candy from all over the world. 
Have any of you guys tried it out yet? Would love to hear your thoughts! If you haven't yet, you can download the app here from the Google Play Store or here from the iTunes store. You can follow me right here.

rough around the edges

2 minute read
Sweater: Eddie Baur (similar style here); Dress: Asos (from last year, similar style here); Boots: Isabel Marant; Hat: J.Crew (old, but dying for this version here); Bag: Saint Laurent; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban
These. Boots. Where to start? I've been eyeing this pair of Marants since her Fall 2014 collection debuted, debating when and for how much they would go on sale for. As luck would have it, I popped into one of my favorite San Francisco boutiques, Curve, this past weekend to find their last pair, in my size, at 70% off. Kismet, no?
I love how they add a little bit of punk to an otherwise demure outfit, a huge reason why I admire her work so much in the first place. It's equal parts "it" Parisian girl, bohemian, with a dash of edgy punk. Rough around the edges so to speak.

museum hopping

2 minute read
Jacket: Alexander McQueen; Dress: Altuzarra for Target; Shoes: Manolo Blahnik; Bag: Saint Laurent; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban; Lips: Stila "Beso"; Watch: Daniel Wellington; Necklace: Jennifer Zeuner
After living in San Francisco for the past 5 years (my anniversary comes up this February!), I've accumulated quite the list of favorite haunts and stomping grounds, from restaurants to parks, bars to hikes around the Bay. Without a doubt, the de Young Museum nestled in the heart of Golden Gate Park, has to be one of my all-time favorites. I remember visiting it years ago during one of my first, "big-girl" weekends of exploring my new city and leaving completely smitten with the plaza that sits between the de Young and the California Academy of Sciences. It's riddled with trees, benches where friends and lovers can sit, fountains sprinkled throughout and an undeniable Parisian weekend vibe that's utterly addicting. I could sit out there for hours (and have on occasion to read books and people watch).
This past weekend, we trekked out to the de Young for the Keith Haring exhibit, which I highly recommend you make it out for, if you happen to be in the area. And speaking of favorite haunts, I think it may be time to update my San Francisco favorite lists. If you recall, I've rounded up my favorite shopping and dining spots here and here respectively. Perhaps a third installment is in order. Stay tuned...

Jacket: IRO; Sweater: Everlane; Jeans: J.Brand; Shoes: Saint Laurent; Bag: Saint Laurent; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban; Necklace: Givenchy; Watch: Daniel Wellington
The past few weeks, I've been living in different renditions of this outfit, particularly with this jacket and these jeans being the primary MVPs. To be completely honest, I've always been a bit on the fence about grey jeans in general, as they tend to have a borderline acid wash finish in my opinion, but ever since stumbling upon this photo of Emmanuelle Alt, I've been whistling a different tune entirely.

those white manolos…

Jacket: Alexander McQueen (similar style here); Shirt: Equipment; Jeans: J.Brand; Shoes: Manolo Blahnik; Bag: Saint Laurent via The RealReal; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban
Ever since my white J.W. Anderson for Aldo heels took a turn for the worse this past summer (moment of silence), I've been searching high and low for the perfect white heel. It's a tall order, especially when white in this style tends to veer more into satin territory and I had my heart set on leather. When I came across these Manolos at (where else?) Jeremy's a few weekends back for a steal of a price, I couldn't believe my luck. Needless to say, they've been difficult to pry off my feet since.

an oscar moment

3 minute read
Dress: Oscar de la Renta borrowed from TheRealReal; Shoes: Manolo Blahnik; Clutch: Charlotte Olympia; Sunglasses: Saint Laurent; Bracelets: Vita Fede; Belt: Gap; Earrings: BaubleBar
This past weekend was one of those weekends that made me fall in love with San Francisco all over again. Don't you just love moments of clarity like that? I've been craving it lately.
After battling a week-long cold last week (sorry for the radio silence around here, I could barely talk most days!), I was able to muster through enough Emergen-C and cough drops, throw on this unbelievably twirl-worthy Oscar de la Renta dress on loan from The RealReal and head to our team holiday masquerade party (a dinner cruise to boot!). 
There's something about the right dress sometimes that makes a night come alive and this particular one certainly didn't disappoint. We cruised into the Bay around Alcatraz and then under a glowing (but deserted) Golden Gate Bridge, which was closed for construction for the first time in ages, and simply admired the city from afar. After docking back at the pier, we ducked into Rickhouse for a late nightcap -- enjoying the comfort that only a cozy corner booth can offer. And this dress? Well I may not want to part with it just yet. Oscar certainly knew how to make them, didn't he?
How was your weekend?

i’ll have what she’s having {sick day shopping}

Per usual, I've caught a bit of a bug at the tail end of our holiday break. Which means one thing really: lots of sale shopping from bed. Here are a few of my favorites (just tip of the iceberg really) from the Net-A-Porter sale

have books {will travel}

2 minute read
When it comes to reading, I've always been the girl with a book (or two) stowed away in her bag, picking it up whenever she has downtime. Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately), what I've come to find is that I get my best reading done while traveling. I literally devour books when I'm on vacation. Case in point: I blazed through 5 books during one leg of our trip in Turkey (and then struggled to figure out how to carry them all back home). 
Since 2014 was a big travel year for me (all of which you can see recapped here), I wanted to share a few of my favorite books that have seen me through multiple take offs, landings, customs lines, beaches and cities, from hopping around London to cruising with Princess Cruises in the Caribbean. With 2015 already here (2 days in!), I'm getting my next batch of reading together for a few upcoming trips. Any recommendations?

3..2..1… {happy new year!}

2 minute read
This year, I'm excited to close out 2014 with close friends over one too many dinner courses and bottles of wine. Perhaps it's my age catching up with me, but something about sitting down in a cozy restaurant corner sounds much more appealing than chasing each other around at an overcrowded bar (which trust me, I've done my fair share of).  
However you're celebrating the eve of 2015, hope you have a wonderful evening and thank you so much for stopping by and reading each day! It means the world to me. 
Now, bring it on 2015!

cheers to that {cruise-inspired sips}

2 minute read
There's something about being on vacation (especially of the sun-infused variety) that demands a refreshing cocktail. While I'm definitely much more of a hearty drink kind of gal (give me a Manhattan and I'm a happy camper), I can't say no to sipping on something lighter and, dare I say, fruitier, while lounging in a hammock or taking in a tropical ocean breeze. When in Rome (or in this case, the Caribbean), right?
During our at sea adventures with Princess Cruises, we had a few days dedicated to just sailing to our next destination, which oddly enough, I relished in. It was a great chance to simply relax, unwind and appreciate the stretch of ocean surrounding us. For those days in particular, I relied on a few of my vacation standbys: a classic Mojito and my latest obsession, Death in the Afternoon, created by Hemingway himself (all the more reason to love it).
Hope you enjoy!
Mojito
1 ounce fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons of superfine sugar
1 cup crushed ice
12 fresh mint leaves + sprigs for garnish
1 ounces white rum
1 ounce club soda
In a Collins or highball glass, stir lime juice and sugar together until the sugar dissolves. Add 1/4 cup crushed ice. Rub mint leaves around the rim of the glass then tear them in half, adding to the mixture once done. Gently stir and then add rum, rest of the ice and club soda. Stir again and top off with mint sprigs as a garnish. 
Death in the Afternoon
1 1/2 ounces absinthe (but legally speaking, Pernod is a suitable substitute)
4 ounces Brut champagne
Pour absinthe (or a legal substitute) into a champagne flute. Add chilled champagne until the mixture clouds up and serve! Simple and addicting.

i’ll have what she’s having {wanderlust}

2 minute read
If you recall from this post way back at the beginning of 2014, travel was a big goal of mine. And I'm so happy and thankful to report that I checked some major countries off the list this past year. I headed to London for my first time. Trekked around Turkey for two weeks with my best friend, Heather. Then there was Jamaica, Vancouver, and countless road trips in between. And, of course, there was my first at sea excursion with Princess Cruises through the Caribbean.  
As far as 2015 travel is concerned, 2014 has left some pretty big shoes to fill. And I'm already busy scheming and getting a few trips in the works for January and February. High at the top of my list, are a handful of tropical destinations (which seems fitting for this time of year), namely the Maldives, Santorini and Bali. But of course, I'd also be lying if I didn't admit a world cruise was looking mighty inviting right about now
To keep my more serious bouts of wanderlust at bay (like this instance), I like to pack a proverbial suitcase for the occasion, this time with heavy doses of resort wear's finest, fit for a lazy day at sea or exploring the local sights and villages.

I may be guilty of repeating this outfit on numerous occasions this holiday break, but hey, if it works, it works. And this jacket is quickly becoming my new topper for my daily uniforms. 
Hope you all had a very merry little holiday with your families and friends -- but let's get real here. What are we wearing for New Year's Eve? True to form, I'm a big procrastinator when it comes to picking my outfit and this year was no different. I scooped up a few pieces yesterday and assuming next day delivery doesn't let me down (fingers crossed), I'll be sharing later this week!

When I met up with my friend Natalie to snap these photos in Pac Heights, her first remark was, "You look like a Christmas present!" And oddly enough, that's exactly how I feel in this dress (in the best way possible). Happy holidays to you and yours this season! I, for one, am looking forward to A Christmas Story on loop for the next few days.

designer crush {introducing ames tovern}

I love meeting inspiring people, especially when they happen to be women I work with, blazing their own path. I recently met Aimee Gildea, a fellow Googler and Bay Area native, who's been working the past few years to launch her own line of luxury hip packs, Ames Tovern (a spin on her namesake and a dedication to her grandmother Vern). 
With a background in French pattern making, a savvy business head on her shoulders and a keen eye for design and quality leather, she's a triple threat to a T. And I couldn't wait to get my hands on one of these guys and promptly onto my hips. I, for one, am excited for the recent revival of waist and hip bags (remember this Elizabeth & James one I posted yesterday?) and am quickly seeing the functional beauty in them too (first and foremost, they're the perfect match for this season's cape). 
How about you guys? Have you dabbled in hip packs and waist belts yet?

working from home {rainy days}

4 minute read
Growing up in Reno, snow days were pretty common. The minute it looked like a snow storm was heading our way, my sister and I would get our snow gear ready by the door, in hopes that 1.) school would be canceled the following day so we could 2.) go sledding at the park nearby in the morning or 3.) beg one of my parents to take us up to go skiing.
Granted, living in San Francisco now, snow days aren't in my foreseeable future anymore (which I kind of miss these days!) but after last week's rainy "Storm of the Decade" that hit the Bay Area, I think rain days will do just fine. Given that I commute about 2 hours one way to get out to Mountain View, a lot of my team will opt to work from home or our San Francisco office to avoid flooded highways, accidents and overall, a headache of traffic. And I did exactly that last week. I am used to working from home now. I do not miss the commute at all. Plus, since a friend of mine recommended that I checked out sites like filecenterdms.com to help me keep all my paper documents in one place digitally, instead of having everything on the floor or on the desk, I feel like this may help increase my productivity while working at home, considering not many people can work in a cluttered room. Let's just see how it goes.

The tricky thing that I'm often guilty of when it comes to working from home, is the trap of not changing for the day, or what I like to call "VC presentable", meaning you look put together from the waist up for video conferences and likely wearing pajamas below. This can happen a lot for people whose home work consists of options that don't require video calls, such as stock market trading - gsk shares don't care what you look like, now do they? What I've found though is that I'm much more productive and energized if I put together an outfit I feel good in -- even if the only person who may fully appreciate it, is Elvis. And sometimes, he doesn't even seem to care. 😉 If you establish a working day routine you'll be set! It will help you feel more intune with your day and help you feel more organized and ready to take on whatever comes your way.
Lately, for my work from home attire routine, I've been incorporating a slew of cozy socks, sometimes worn slouchy with heels when I eventually head out of the apartment, or sometimes pulled up like this pair by GoldToe, to peek out of knee high boots. They're the perfect cozy touch for staying in and a great finishing touch to an outfit for drinks afterward (when the rain finally lets up). If you'd like to try a pair for yourself, GoldToe is awarding out assorted pairs every week and even a $1,500 wardrobe makeover grand prize. Simply like or comment on their Facebook posts with the hashtag #80DaysOfGoldToe. Good luck!
Do any of you work from home? How do you dress for the occasion?

We talk a lot about investment pieces here on TTT. Pieces that you know you'll be reaching for year after year; the quality never letting you down. And while, yes, I generally bucket bags, shoes and coats into this higher ticket category, there's something to be said about everyday basics, especially ones that don't break the bank. Jeans and sweaters that only get better with age, slightly broken in with love and memories.
As mentioned in my previous post here, I'm a huge fan of Hanes and have been for as long as I can remember. What I love particularly about their sweatshirts and shirts, is how easily they can transition from lounging in bed (full disclosure, I may have worn this black sweatshirt you see here to bed the night before) to daytime wear. With the right accessories, cue: this Gladys Tamez hat that I'm obsessed with and this camel coat, which I've also had for years, and it takes on a whole new elevated personality.

It seems only fitting that after such a serious black and white kick that I would shift gears over to grey. And I've been binging on it lately, especially when I spotted this leather IRO jacket (snagged on sale during Black Friday!). When it comes to investment pieces, shoes and leather jackets really are my weakness. 
I actually wore this all grey outfit a couple weeks back for the H&M store opening out in Salinas. Huge thanks again to everyone who made it out! I had a ton of fun shopping around with all of you (and mad props to the impromptu dance party that formed outside in the line).

There are a few things that really kick off the holiday season for me. The first? Scrooged, Love Actually and A Christmas Story on an embarrassing repeat loop. Followed by multiple cookie parties, where you can finally blast that Pandora station you've been itching to play since last year. And seizing any and every opportunity to bundle up when the SF temps allow. I recently picked up a few bundle-worthy pieces from Nordstrom Rack, namely this wool coat and wrap around scarf and, have been living in them ever since. Sure enough, if they pass that test, it usually means I'll be stocking up on a handful (or 10) for a few folks on my holiday list this year.

for the beauty enthusiast {l’occibox}

2 minute read
If you're like me, you have quite a few beauty junkies in your life. Coworkers, friends, family members. And if you're also like me, you may not be a self proclaimed beauty junkie yourself. Let's just say, when I find things that work for me, I stick with them and tend to get overwhelmed by having too many options, unless one comes highly recommended by a friend. And that friend is usually a said beauty junkie.
So the catch 22 here? What do you get the beauty junkie in your life who's usually telling you what to get for your top shelf? Cue L'Occibox. Brought to you by the folks at L'Occitane, L'Occibox is a clever take on the beauty sampling program, curating to bring their best and latest products directly to your bathroom shelf. Plus, if you've never tried the brand before, it's a great way to experience it (all products are travel size) and for only $15 a piece, it's easy to stock up on two or three (or in my case, five). 
This inaugural set kicks off with a special collaboration with Elle Magazine, who contributed the beyond cute travel pouch you see here, nail file and the illustration hand cream tubes. You can snag a set for yourself, I mean, for those friends on your list right this way (just make sure to enter the code "DISCOVER" at checkout).

introducing bandra-west {designer crush}

Right before the holiday break, I had the chance to work with a few friends of mine (new and old) on the launch of one of San Francisco's latest designer collectives, Bandra-West. Started by Vikram Yeldandi, the brand is dedicated to sourcing contemporary artisan work, directly from India. They're currently working with five designers now, most of which, you can see in the lookbook we shot here (with the always adorable Anna-Alexia behind the lens). 
As you can probably guess, I was a sucker for the printed crop top and pants pairing and that gold diamond print with red stripe pencil skirt? Please and thank you!
Hope you guys enjoy and if you haven't already, you can peek at their debut collection right here.

I'm a classic procrastinator when it comes to holiday gift shopping. Don't get me wrong, I usually get the big ones out of the way during my travels (I'm looking at you, Mom and Dad), but when it comes to my close friends, I tend to rely on a tightly curated list of my favorite items throughout the year, which makes shopping at the zero hour relatively simple. Here's a peek at what I'm stocking up on for my friends (and if you happen to be peeking here dear friends, stop reading now). 🙂

sunday routines

3 minute read
Shirt: Kit & Ace; Boxer brief underwear: Hanes
Confession: I've always had a love/hate relationship with Sundays. On one hand, they're a great bookend to the weekend, perfect for sleeping in, recovering from Saturday and on particular rainy ones, they're practically made for marathons of Blacklist or Downton Abbey (depending on my mood, of course).
On the other hand, I secretly dread them. When you have a slew of early Monday morning meetings, most of which are presentation heavy, that means Sunday afternoons can be spent toiling away in front of a laptop late into the evening.
My name is Krystal and I suffer from the Sunday Blues.
Lately though, I've been trying to turn this around with a few little updates to my routine. While I can't necessarily do anything about the amount of work that still needs to get done before Monday morning, I'm changing the way I go about approaching it. Perspective is everything, after all. Starting with, of course, how I dress for the day.
Ever since I was little, I've had a special soft spot for Hanes. They're a powerhouse for unbeatable, affordable basics and I may have stolen more than my fair share of broken in Hanes undershirts from past boyfriends. (Sorry, not sorry -- the slouch is just too good!) Even today, I love how easily they slip into the every day routine, even if that routine is say, lounging around in boy short underwear and a comfy tee and reading magazines, which is to say, what my Sunday morning looks like before my coffee run. From there, depending on the errands that need to be run that day, I'll frequent between different states of reading in bed, catching up on blog and work emails before noon until finally slipping on boyfriend jeans to take Elvis for a long walk on the beach.
Slipping in just these little moments of "me" time as made all the difference in the world and I usually end up approaching that amount of work I "need" to get done later that day with a renewed sense of purpose so I can finish early (and tuck myself into a good guilty pleasure TV marathon). Oh, and if there's a date night in the works for that evening, I may slip into a little dance session around the house (kinda like the gals here). Dance like no one's watching, right?
How do you spend your Sundays?

’tis the season {join me at h&m this thursday!}

2 minute read
Dress: Ellery borrowed from The RealReal; Shoes: Saint Laurent; Bag: Chanel; Earrings: BaubleBar; Lips: Stila "Beso"; Sunglasses: Elizabeth & James
Well it's only the 3rd day of December and I can already feel the calendar brimming with holiday events. And that can mean only one thing: party dresses are in full swing! I'm definitely of the camp that I should be able to wear my holiday dresses year round so I tend to not over do the red and green variety, but instead opt for statement LBDs. This particular dress by Ellery (borrowed from The RealReal) is killing it for me right now and I can't wait to wear it to the first party of the season next week. (Psstt...If you're feeling ambitious enough to tackle gift shopping, The RealReal just launched their 12 Days of Gifting campaign here -- snag one for them and two for you!) 
Speaking of holiday fetês, I'm hosting yet another little launch party this week, this time out in Salinas, CA for the new H&M store opening at the Northridge Mall. If you happen to be in the area on Thursday, join me at 10:30am -- we'll be running an Instagram contest with $100 H&M gift cards up for grabs. Hope to see you out there!

timeless with movado

2 minute read
Sweater: Kenzo; Shirt: Equipment; Skirt: Zara (similar style here); Shoes: Saint Laurent (love this pair); Bag: Proenza Schouler; Sunglasses: Ray-Ban; Watch: Movado
As I get older (and I say this fondly), I'm starting to really streamline what pieces I want to surround myself with and wear on a daily basis. Where I once used to err on the side of more options, I find myself gravitating back toward a steady (and small) lineup of classics -- a timeless watch being one of them. What I love about this particular Movado watch is how seamlessly it can be incorporated into any outfit, which is particularly key for the holiday season when there are a slew of parties, cocktail hours and family get togethers, sometimes back to back. Plus, the smaller face and more heritage design is a nice contrast to my typical masculine watch go-to. I look forward to pairing it with a stack of bracelets for more impact, and even letting it stand alone as more of a statement piece.
