I spent the weekend in San Francisco with my mom & daughter. If you're only as spectacular as the company you keep, I was uncontrollably spectacularificness! I love the diverse humanity of the international city. There were obvious predominant trends made more obvious by trendy multinational chain stores, but the trend toward individuation through style was the most overt. People en masse took simple trends and tweaked and matched and clashed and combined both current & passé. Individual styles were like windows to the souls of their wearers. As a community, it was like the populace and their ensembles were portals on a cruise ship. You could see into the cabins if you looked one way or see the collective perspective to the sea from the other. If I could bring one thing back to Humboldt with me it would be the communal embrace of individuate style.
P.S. Men with scarves are so hot ;)
