RUSH HOUR


Crystal Phuong- Travel Blog- San Francisco Rush Hour

On the last Friday in San Francisco, I finished my work early and took a chance to explore the other neighborhood before it went completely dark. Thanks Valentino for making these trendy yet comfortable boots, I was able to walk blocks after blocks without pain. By the time I needed to stop to catch my breath, I found myself standing in the middle of the Embarcadero at sunset. A perfect location at the perfect timing. Everything seemed to work so well in the end. 

The Embarcadero has a wide pleasant sidewalk along the City's eastern shoreline, being a great place to walk, bike or skate. If you are in San Francisco, I would highly recommend you to go for a walk at this place, either in the morning to enjoy some fresh air or in the evening to experience San Francisco during rush hour. 

I was there when the sun began to set and I was lucky to witness how San Francisco transformed in between day and night. The street started lightening up, blending in with the cotton candy sky, and creating such a colorful and sparkling picture. The temperature slowly dipped and the wind became less enjoyable at night. But it didn't bother me much as I was having a great time at a place that was full of energy and lights.

My last night in San Francisco couldn't be more magical, don't you think?

SPRING IN THE PRESIDIO OF SAN FRANCISCO


Crystal Phuong- Fashion Blogger- Spring in The Presidio of San Francisco

If you ask me when the best time is to visit San Francisco, my answer would be "The best time is when you are there". I mean it. Forget people 's recommendations that say you should go during Summer, Fall or Winter. Until you place your footstep on that land, nothing else matters. It wasn't my decision to pick the best time to visit San Francisco.

I was there on a mission, so whether it's sunny or stormy, I had to be there. It was Spring when I visited San Francisco. The weather was colder than I expected, but I loved it. I don't get to wear thigh high boots or trench coat in Singapore, so there was nothing to complain about.

Flowers were blossoming everywhere. The sun actually peeked out during the day to give us warmth and to brighten our day despite the strong and cold wind. But the best part of my entire trip was spending 8 hours in The Presidio of San Francisco every weekday to work.

When I posted a few photos of this place on my Instagram, my friends went crazy. When I told them this was where my company is, they thought I was kidding. I can't blame them because if I wasn't actually there, I would think the same way. But guess what, life is always full of surprises, you'll never know what will hit you.

LAYERING UP IN SAN FRANCISCO


Crystal Phuong- Travel Blog- Layering up in San Francisco
As soon as the first relaxing night in San Francisco was over, I was sucked into the whirlpool of work the next day nonstop. There were training and meetings back to back, so much that whenever I looked at the watch, it was either time to go for lunch or to head home. I heard so much about how hard people in Silicon Valley work, but nothing was like what I imagined until I really worked there. Everyone was so focused, dynamic, energetic, and driven. It's hard not to feel motivated when I'm hanging around with people like that. Although, I'm a workaholic by nature, seeing everyone busy chasing their own goals makes me feel like I wasn't working hard enough at all.

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed my time in San Francisco, including the crispy weather of Spring, which helped to fight the jetlag and gave me the perfect chance to power up my fashion games: layering. I brought many basic pieces with me on this trip as they are so easy to style. I mean, we can never go wrong with a white turtle-neck top, a classic black trench coat and thigh high boots. The rest of what I was wearing were my treasures found in San Francisco.

I knew my wallet would be in trouble whenever I'm in the US, but this kind of trouble will surely make me happy.
