The hippie in me

-
Alors, San francisco ?
Et bien depuis des années, je peux dire que c’était mon rêve ultime ! Je sentais le cœur de la ville battre à travers les chansons folk que j’écoutais.
Maintenant que j’ai visité, je peux dire que c’est exactement comme je l’avais imaginé.
- L’esprit hippie est toujours présent dans le célèbre quartier de Haight Ashbury. J’ai passé la majorité du temps là bas, il y a pleins de boutiques sympa, dont beaucoup des friperies.
- Il fait horriblement froid là bas, en tout cas en été.
- Castro et Mission sont les deux autres quartiers que j’ai le plus aimé.
- Comme je m’y attendais, le Golden Gate est splendide.
Allez c’est parti pour la séance diapo, à l’occasion j’avais enfilé ma tenue de hippie ;-)

Music: Scott McKenzie - San Francisco

So, what about san Francisco ?
Well, since many years, it was my ultimate dream ! I was feeling the town’s heart beat through the folk songs I was listening.
Now that I visited, I can say it’s all like I imagined.
- The hippie spirit is still living in the famous area of Haight Ashbury. I spent most of my time there, there’s a lot of nice second hand shops.
- It’s freaking chilly out there, at least during summer. ( San Franciscooold ! )
- Castro and Mission are the two other places I loved the most.
- Just like I expected, the golden gate is gorgeous.
So now let the pictures talk for themselves, and my hippie outfit as well !
-




I really loved the gate surrounded with all this fog, even if I couldn’t see it entirely:

There was no better occasion for wearing my ” Janis Joplin” huge sunglasses :

I love that SF has a lot of colorfull houses ! :

Who’s the happy girl ? Meeeeeee !



” What is that ?! “ right ? It’s one of the room in the Hotel I stayed. It’s called the Red Victorian, and it’s pretty unusual. Every room is different, and decoraded a different way … a hippie way of course! It was a lot of fun to visit the whole house and take some souvenirs pictures:

Now it’s time to go, see you later guys and … peace & love !

adorable hotel room!
Très jolie série! Ca donne envie de prendre un aller simple pour voir les couleurs de San Francisco de ses propres yeux!
WONDERFUL photos! They make me miss my home town! =) The fog around the Golden Gate is especially gorgeous! What I wouldn’t give for another foggy day!
Your outfit is fantastic! It defiintely fits in with the mood of the city! Such a great romper! I’ve been looking and looking for one like that, but I havn’t been able to find one.
I’m so glad that you could come to SF which is where I live. I’m not too far from Haight and I love it. In fact I recognize the sign in the picture. If you ever want to come back when it’s warm you have to come during spring or fall then it’s so beautiful you never want to leave. Hope you had a good trip here!
What amazing & vibrant pictures! The ‘Red Victorian’ looks incredible! And that SF bridge shot is stunning! :)
Peace!

WAOUHHHHH
Wow, that crocheted wall art looks fantastic! I think I’m going to get into coloured doileys- they’re so much funkier than traditional cream coloured ones! The Golden Gate looks amazing, and those colourful houses - swoon! Wendy xx
what a wonderful post! :) love your outfit, love your photos :))
Yep, San Fran will now have to be added to my list of “Places to see before I croak”.
Oh, and the pics are wonderful! So vibrant and colorful, makes me still want to hold onto what’s left of summer!
Seems like so much fun!! What lovely pictures! So cute. And I love that hotel room! It’s amazing!
SF is so colourful, the bedroom you were in especially! Nice to see SF through your eyes:)
Absolutely gorgeous, great locations and interest photographs. Looks like you are having a ball! Love the contrast between the kitsy decor and the breathtaking Golden Gate.
That vest is so adorable! and the dress too! I The picture of the colorful houses is amazing.
Gorgeous pictures! Oh, they’re all so colorful! I’m glad you have a blast in SF.
Such gorgeous pictures. It sure looks like a fun place to visit! And your hotel room looks awesome, so colourful! And of course your outfit is adorable :)

san fran is still one of my all-time favorite cities. it’s true that it is for some reason super chilly there! the perfect excuse to seek out a cute jacket on haight!
Superbe ! as-tu retrouvé l’esprit des “Chroniques de SF” ou pu visiter la reconstitution de Barabary lane ?

“The coldest winter I ever saw was the summer I spent in San Francisco.” — Mark Twain
Ah, toutes ces couleurs ! C’est clair que ça donne envie !!! L’hôtel a l’air top !

Incoyables photos!!! Ca a l’air juste superbe!! Je rêve de voir le pont…Et ces maisons multicolores…Merci pour toutes ces jolies photos!!
this is crazyy you were right near my home

Tu m’as donné tellement envie d’y aller avec tes superbes photos! Cette ville à l’air extraordinaire…
Aaaahh San Francisco, j’adore !!
Vas-tu aller au Yosemite Parc ? Je te conseille, c’est superbe ! Et si tu es randonneuse, c’est encore mieux ! (mais faut passer par d’horribles chaussures de rando. Si tu connais une marque qui en fait des jolies, on ne sait jamais, je suis preneuse !!)
Beautiful pics!!!
plenty of colours!
I recently came back from San Francisco with my parents.
We went to that hotel in the Haight and had some organic coffee in the café and I really wanted to stay in the hotel because the atmosphere was beautiful. Instead, we stayed in a hotel between Chinatown and North Beach. Not as beautiful I have to say
Hope you had a great time, it sure looks like it. San Francisco is such a beautiful town
so beautiful! sf is so eclectic and unique! a perfect summer town!
oh I looove these photos :) Great to see some colour!
PUNAISE ! la chambre d’hôtel me parle mais force 1000, ahahahahaah my god je dois m’y rendre, je rajoute cet hôtel à ma ‘to-do list’ de ma vie, purée je suis en train de baver
That is an AMAZING hotel!
Wow - your pictures are stunning. I especially love those of the Golden Gate bridge!
peace and love :)
the brige in the fog, really impressive! and the hotel room looks cute!
The last picture of the bridge is really gorgeous!
t’as pris des photos incroyables!!! moi, je voudrais retourner aux etats unis, afin de visiter frisco!
Amazing pictures!!!
You look adorable!!!
I envy you! Seems like a wonderful trip. Enjoy the rest of your stay :)
The hotel room looks amazing and who doesn’t love huge glasses :) I love anyhting with floral patterns, and that playsuit is amazing.
La chambre d’hôtel est WOAW !
The paints and buildings are super cute! Very seventies-like
The pictures are beautiful! I like your floral dress ;)
I want to go to SF
PEACE AND LOVE OR EVERYONE
La musique est magnifique, les photos aussi !
Superbes ces photos, elles regorgent de couleurs, sont pleines d’énergie et d’ “ondes positives” ! as-tu retrouvé l’esprit des “Chroniques de SF” d’Armistead Maupin ou peut-être même visité la reconstitution de Barbary lane ?
je ne pensais pas que c’était si coloré!
Cette ville aux mille couleurs a l’air splendide ! Tu l’as joué soft côté hypittude ;-) Biz
Cet hotel… WAOUH!! Et j’adore ta combishort, ce look te vas à ravir!!
Yay, I’m glad you’re having fun in San Fransisco. It’s definitely on my list of places to visit!
La chambre est géniale! Et tes photos donnent effectivement bien envie de se plonger dans l’air hippie de SF!
Oulala sexy la hippie ! En mini jupe et talon… y a pas comme un contre sens?
loving your shoes and that hotel is really cute !
wish i could go there sometimes :)
I adore that song.
I love your travel photos. You should put a book together.
toute ces couleurs, cette ville est sublime!
Haight Ashbury est aussi le quartier que j’ai préféré à SFO, il m’a un peu fait penser à Brooklyn dans l’esprit.
Tu as su saisir ça en photo en tout cas et mon dieu cet hotel! Il faut vraiment que je note cette adresse quelque part pour y descendre si je retourne là bas!
Il y a la maison où Janis Joplin a véçu une grande partie de sa vie dans ce coin là, j’y ai fait mon petit pèlerinage ^__^
I’m glad you are having such a great trip. San Francisco is cool (and COLD sometimes ;) it can also be a little strange.
lovely pictures. the hippie vibe suits you!
ça donne envie ! Je veux y aller tout de suite !!!!
Je suis partie aux USA au mois de juillet, et revoir San Francisco me donne juste envie d’y retourner sur le champ, et de m’y acheter une maison.
C’est une ville géniale, et tout comme toi j’ai adoré Castro et Haight Ashbury!
Le jardin japonais du Golden Gate Park est magnifique, même si rempli de monde parce que très connu.
Et je me suis caillé au mois de juillet, malgré mes 3 pulls, sous le vent et le brouillard. Un américain m’a dit dans l’avion que la belle saison c’était l’automne pour aller à SF.
I love it there.. I haven’t been there in a looong time but I remember how much fun I found it driving up and especially down all those hills ;) we had a picknick with the family at the GG and it was so peaceful.. we even flew a kite, I believe.. wonderful.
Hey!! i love your blog!! So great pictures ;)
Oh I am jealous. Your outfit is very Sienna Miller. :)

oui je suis impressionnée à quelle point tu n’es pas couverte ! Maîtriser la météo à San Francisco est très compliqué ! L’été là-bas, c’est sept-oct-novembre.
glad you loved my city!
LOVE it! so glad you luved sjf, it’s da shitttttttttttttttttttttt!!!
Sigh, I think I am the only person ever to not be in love with San Francisco. Being from the north East, to me it always seemed kind of a waste to both flying all the way to California to hang out in a city that was colder than home! Not to mention the lack of swim-able beaches (and the cold water!). But perhaps I need to give the city a second chance, as I did manage to score some nice clothes there (:
wow..this “hippie look” suits you so well…nice pictures
N.
oh my goddddd your photos are amazing!!! makes me miss SF even more ; (
great pics and great blog! ^_^
p.s.It would be nice to exchange links))
xoxo
Jolies couleurs dans les photos. J’ai toujours rêvé de partir à San Francisco un jour.
Joliii ! wouw coloré :) <3
Super jolies photos de San Francisco ! I lovin’ it !
En lisant le journal tout à l’heure (ndlr : Ouest France), j’ai trouvé un article sur ton blog ! Je te l’envoie par mail,
Bisous, Gwenn
Nice pictures, and I love your outfit!
San Francisco est ma ville préférée, je l’adore et mon quartier préférée est bien entendus le même que le tiens. Je vais a peu près le même voyage que toi mais de l’autre sens, me voilà a New York et il y a dix jours j’étais encore a San Francisco. J’ai faillit dormir au même hotel que toi mais il n’y avait pas de place pour mes dates, j’ai donc était dans un hotel a deux rue Haight, sur Divisadero. C’est drôle de voir tout ça, que je connais si bien, sur des si belle photos. Je voudrais y vivre mai le destins m’a fait habiter a Paris. Je ne me pleins pas remarque ;). Bref bravo pour ton joli blog, et continue comme ca.
Pat
A tu vue la friperie pas oins de ton hotel, sur l’autre troitoire, a côtés d’un mexicain et d’une librairie. Avec un photos matin au fond? C’est ma preférée.
Peace
OMG, the colors in this post are just a-mazing! Love the houses. I would love to visit SF some time in the future. <3
LOVE the photos! SF is my home city…I love it there!
Your photos are amazing! I love the colorful buildings. My friend just came back from SF and is moving shortly to Mission. I feel really inspired by your views of the city….Thanks!
i was here at the beginning of a roadtrip i did this summer, and it was real cloudy that day also. i thought san fran was pretty good, not what i expected though. i never saw anything like this though. was it near like fishermans wharf?? x
gorgeous blog! love your room i’m soo jealous!
Simply gorgeous…I love the way you show the world, all pretty and ethereal…love it :)
Preciosaaa!!!
une trés belle serie de photos sur San Francisco, ceal donne envie d ‘ aller faire un petit tour las bas.
J’aime baucoup la première photo ou on dénote un petit parfum hippie, et je trouve que tu as des airs de Janis Joplin ‘est genial…
The hotel room is amazing! So jealous.
Un doux air de Janis Joplin et direction Woodstock. Tu as vraiment le chic pour nous transporter…autre époque, autres moeurs…mais une constante: un style singulier qui te colle à la peau. J’adore.
Sonja
