Carmel-by-the-Sea Trip!

One of our favorite places to go is Carmel-by-the-Sea!  It's about an hour away and is a great place to getaway and relax after a long work week.


Our favorite places to eat are Dametra Cafe, Portabella, and SUR at the Barnyard! 


Apologies for missing my weekly weigh in this week, but work has been insane lately!  I'm planning to get back on track this Sunday when I get back from Carmel!

Where do you like to go to unwind?

San Francisco Trip! Sephora VIB Rouge Event + Union Street Festival


This past Sunday I took a trip to San Francisco!!!

I went to meet my friend who was picking up her wedding dress on Union!  She looked absolutely stunning and the dress is gorgeous!  I can't wait for the wedding this Fall!!  

This trip also aligned with the VIB Rouge Event at Sephora.  This was the first time I had been to the Union store and it is AMAZING!  There are so many more products and brands than in my local store.  I was impressed that they closed the store for VIB Rouge members only and served Noah's Bagels, coffee, pastries, yogurt, and juice!


Parking, as predicted, was terrible!!  There was a big festival that caused the closure of the Union Street parking garage at 2001 Union.  I spent about 15 minutes searching for street parking, but at least it was free!

The festival was actually pretty fun!  There was a ton of food vendors, free snacks, and interesting shops to look at.


My friends and I also stopped in a few places along Union.  I had a vanilla latte at illy which was pretty good!  The store was the perfect place to relax and catch up with friends.  The morning in SF was chilly so I picked up a Small Black Nike Half Zip for $65 at the Nike Store... worth every penny.



In the afternoon, it warmed up quite a bit and actually turned into a gorgeous day!


We had such a great time!  I can't wait to go back!


Have you been to San Francisco?
