SF, Day 2

Today started off with a bang. We got up relatively early with plans to explore. Well, I had a bigger plan and decided to indulge in a little retail therapy first at a bonafide Benefit Cosmetics store - afterall, this is where Benefit is from (and they have little boutique-y stores up here)!



So cute. I love Benefit makeup!

We found the little shop and I got to shop and even get a brow wax. Lovely! The nice girl even said they're planning on opening up a shop sometime soon in L.A. Lucky us!






Next we headed up (I mean, down) Lombard Street because a) it's the curviest street in the country, and b) it just wouldn't be a vacation if Ed didn't have to go on some crazy driving mission. It was cool though, and it gave us a lovely view of the city-by-the-bay (yes, we did listen to Journey today while on the road!) and my white knuckles grasping the oh-shit bar went away pretty quickly.



Of course, we hit up SF MoMA and damn - it was perfect. I was so inspired - they had this really cool student exhibition there - California College of the Arts at 100: Innovation by Design - it was AWESOME. We were so impressed by the collection. L.A. should be ashamed of itself, MOCA doesn't even come close!



We shopped around in the museum shop, oogled all the fancy modern merchandise and decided it was time for a cocktail, so we cruised around the corner to the W Hotel for some swanking...


Speaking of swanky, now I have to go get pretty 'cause Ed is taking me to a fancy dinner at Frisson
