Selvi and Haley - Dolores Street, SF

selvihaley
Selvi: "My family. This [shirt] is actually my sister's in New Jersey and she gave it to me. Anything that is comfortable, practical and funky at the same time. Old for the new school."
Haley: "Mostly my roommates, because it is all my roommate's clothes. And just anything, I kind of like the hippie nouveau type, so..."

Color and textures and a big dose of the boho in Selvi and Haley's outfits. I love that these girls use accessories to make their outfits stand out (notice Selvi's brooch and Haley's headband).

Comfortable lace-up oxfords because that's how we roll in the Mission.

Kelsa - Dolores Park, SF

"I like to think about how I dress based on 1960s films. [This outfit is] maybe Jules and Jim."

Love her headband, her tortoise frame glasses and the clean lines of her vintage black striped sundress.

Conan - Dolores Park, SF

conan
"I spent some time in Paris, that was really inspiring. And just, I don't know, beautiful things. The City is incredible and I'm constantly drawing inspiration from both the people and the energy."

I like his white shorts and taupe cardigan combo, as well as how put together, yet rumpled he looks. Also, after a year of clear frames everywhere, his thick black frames look great.

Julia - Dolores Park, SF

"I kind of built it around this t-shirt which I got when I was 18 [in] the boy's department of a thrift store. And I just cut the neck out. I had it in a box for sentimental value and now high-waisted skirts are in, you know because it goes down to there, it's now something I can actually wear it with."

I like clothes that are customized and colorful skirts that are worn on waist. I also really like her colorful plastic sunnies with the touch of gold at the temples.

Lisa - Dolores Park, SF

"It's too low-cut, so I put a t-shirt on underneath."

I like this multi-color dress and though I wouldn't wear it sans t-shirt, I like how the shirt adds an element of sportiness to the outfit. Lisa does a good job of making this dress look good as day wear.

Sort of love the beading on these sandals.

Emma and Django - Dolores Park, SF

"Clowns, clowns inspire my style."

I like her brightly colored dress, her red locks and how jaunty her hat looks. Also, her dog Django is a beast to be reckoned with.

"New age therapist look. The 70s new age therapy."

I like her sundress, frayed and all. Am also loving her accessories of clear sunglasses frame and chunky buckle braided leather belt.

Yes, we do wear flats in the Mission don't we?

Sinclair - Dolores Park, SF

sinclair
"This outfit, kind of last minute thrown together. I don't know what inspires my style, I guess maybe just kind of western meets Michael Caine and Dick Carter. I think that provides an adequate definition."

Clothes with a dash of color that fit well? Yes please.

Rachel and Alex - Dolores Park, SF

rachel_alex
Rachel: "Summer inspires my style."
Alex: "And I didn't really have anything inspire my style. I just wear whatever I find at thrift stores, I just pick it up."

I love Rachel's haircut and her cute wisp of a dress. I also admire Alex's boldness in pairing the extreme casualness of a tie-dyed shirt with the formality of brogues.

"Class. I like to be a little classy, a little trashy."

I like her cute square orange sunnies and lovely white dress with the birds of paradise floral pattern.

"Summery, easy, cool."

This is an APC madras print sundress. (Verification in comments? - thanks!) Check out the shape of her fabulous sunnies and notice how she adeptly matches her belt to her sandals. Hiromi has style through and through.

"This outfit, not much. I haven't been shopping in awhile, my Mom bought this skirt for me and I've had this shirt for awhile."

I like her color combination of nude colored blouse and her blue plaid skirt. Also, look at her silver stamped hoop earrings.

I love how Meg wears neutral colors, and modern clothes, but adds interesting touches through accessories; in this case, her red belt.

These shoes that look like oxfords, but have no shoe tongue? Pretty great.

Frankie - Dolores Park, SF

frankie09
"This outfit is mostly inspired, probably mostly because I've been inspired by the series, Mad Men - and all the 50s/60s housewives and all their get-ups and stuff like that."

If you recognize Frankie, it's because she's been on the site before. An accomplished photographer, she gave me good advice when I met her 1.5 years ago. Besides being a good photographer she obviously has style in spades. Check out her dress, that hair, and those amazing heels. Lovely, lovely woman!

I really want these heels. They're the perfect color, texture, and heel height.

"Well it's the first sunny day in San Francisco and I'm channeling the 80s in a little sun dress."

What a great vintage find! A lovely denim dress with a corset top and crossed cut-outs running down the sides. I covet the possibilities of having such a dress. Also, check out her gold anchor earrings.
