This last weekend I took a short drive down with my boyfriend, his brother and his brother's roommate, and our friend Adam to Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz is one of my favorite places to visit even though I have only been there twice now. There's a store in downtown SC called Stripe. It has the most amazing selection of fashion, accessories, furniture and just, well, lots of random stuff! Being on a mini road-trip with four boys though had me a little worried that I wouldn't be able to convince them to let me stop there. Fortunately they're all amazing guys who aren't afraid of stopping for a little bit of shopping in a cool town, so I managed to pop in for about 15 minutes and look through as much as I could to buy and take back with me to San Francisco.
Aside from the gorgeous and soft, black leather wallet-purse I picked up and a re-supply of delicious key-lime pie lip balm, I got a cute little birthday card from Rifle Paper Co., one of my favorite little card shops. On the glass counter near the register, I also found the most sweet and not too girlie perfume called "Blossom" from 88 Orange. It smelled like gardenias and orange blossoms and all manner of flowers. If I wasn't still finishing up my citrus-y bottle of Clinique's Happy, I would have snatched it up right there. The $56 was just a little much for me if I already had something at home that compensated for it. But mark my words - when I'm done with Happy, I'm moving on to Blossom.
