Desiree - Precita Park, SF

desireesc"What inspires my style is my feelings. So however I feel when I wake up on a given day, I'm thinking about what colors I feel like wearing and if I feel like wearing a dress or pants. What shoes I want to wear. So it's inspired by the weather or how I'm feeling."

Something tough, modern, and militaristic happening here with the combo of the denim dress, jeans, and boots.

Lydia and Erin - Precita Park, SF

Lydia: "This outfit is mostly inspired by the fact I've been wearing this sweater for every day for the last couple of weeks. I recently got, it's a sweater that my grandmother knit and I inherited it after she died. And so it makes me think of her and also I put new buttons on it recently, which felt want to wear it even more."
Erin: "I would just say maybe movies and thrift stores."

I like how the texture of the cardigans just jump out at you and how comfy yet put together these ladies look. If there was a fashion redux of girls in cardigans with glasses and loafers, that would be pretty rad. [Also, these ladies said they were fans of fashionist! So hi!]

Libby - Precita Park, SF

Libby does a great job of creating an interesting and relaxed silhouette with her long uneven hem cardigan and her long scarf. This is the best outfit ever for a lazy Sunday.

Jef - Precita Park, SF

"Laziness I guess. Monochrome laziness."

I have an affinity for Comme des Garçons, even her creepy Play line. Jef wears it the same way I imagine Kawakubo would, monochromatically casual.

Abe - Precita Park, SF

abe"I like buying vintage clothes a lot. And usually when I buy second hand I like pieces that normally people wouldn't get. I always get unique things when I thrift shop."

I like that Abe's military jacket, olive green beanie, and gray denim are made of fabrics that bring to mind every day worker uniforms: wool, wool knit and denim. It's also a bit of color blocking with muted grayed out color.

A nicer version of the de rigeur Converse seen in the Mission, these are leather.

James - Precita Park, SF

jamespp"It's a vintage-retro style. I wanted to wear a chunky sweater during the winter. And now it's the first warm Sunday, so I added the shorts."

Liking the silhouette of his sweater that reminds me ever so slightly of a smoking jacket. Those slim cut shorts that stops just above the knee? That's a good look.

Rachel - Precita Park, SF

rachelpp"Well this was just comfort on a lazy Sunday, basically, and I think a little 70s inspired too."

I like her cute mixed pattern tunic worn with denim at a food cart gathering in Precita Park. Her tortoise shell-esque sunnies go perfectly with her outfit.
