Happy New Year, morsels! Dyanna and I have enjoyed our holiday season respite, and are eager to bring to you new street fashion and style this year. I thought that we'd bring things back to where we started for our first post of 2012, so today's adorable feature is a style spotlight on a San Francisco vintage-aholic, Shannon. I've included some extra photos of Shannon's charming San Francisco apartment, and some of the lovely decor within it. I'll be posting two more of Shannon's cozy winter looks the next few days.
0. Like many San Francisco girls, Shannon has a love for all things vintage. She let me witness her vast all-vintage wardrobe, which filled several closets and dressers to the brim. This passion for unique fashion treasures is by no means exclusive to San Francisco, but it is definitely a major part of San Francisco's fashion culture.
1. My favorite element of Shannon's style is her signature motif--the abacus, which she incorporates into just about every one of her outfits. She has a collection of them, gifted from friends. It is a great symbol, since it represents learning and growth.
2. Shannon also appreciates whimsical things. I was rather amused by her miniature piano.
3. The view from her apartment is majestic. It overlooks the Panhandle/Divisadero area, and the trees you see at the highest point in the far distance are where the famous Haight Street area is located.
4. The final photo is of her collection of monthly muni bus/metro passes that she has collected since she first came to San Francisco.
