Snow White Smile at the DNA Lounge

Sunday night Kyle's band Snow White Smile played the DNA Lounge in San Francisco! I carpooled with three girlfriends (Lyndsie, Kasi, and Brittney) in a brand spanking new car, freshly purchased by Lyndsie on the Fourth of July.

It normally takes about an hour and fifteen minutes to get to San Francisco from my house, but due to some insane holiday weekend traffic, it took us approximately three hours to get there! What an ordeal. We barely made it in time to see Snow White Smile. They were starting their set as we walked in the door.

Yay for fog machine! But not really - I hate those stupid things…always clouding up photos.

The girls and I weren't particularly interested in seeing the other bands, so we headed downstairs to DNA Pizza Lounge and got some eats. They even have vegan and gluten free options, which is amazing considering practically every one of us has different dietary requirements.

Brittney chowing down on vegan pizza, Zach watching TV, and Kasi being the only one who noticed I was taking a picture…you're awesome Kasi.

Surprisingly, we were all super unimpressed with the main act, Kuza. Although all the members look the part of dark, L.A.-based rock stars, they were pretty inexperienced and seemed to not care at all how they came across to their fans. What a shame. We didn't even stay for their whole set.

It was an early night as far as San Francisco evenings on the town go. We got home around midnight and everyone got to bed early enough to get to work with no issues in the morning because we are all lame, old folks.

So before I sign off, I'll close with my outfit of the day, or rather, evening. Nothing super fancy - just all black as usual.

Until next time!

Lip Service Cult Web Order

Top left clockwise: Harness cut-out vest, foil chiffon drop-tail blouse in black, mesh crop top, lace moto jacket

It's been a while since I have ordered anything from Lip Service's website. I'm usually pretty cautious about buying online from them since their fits and cuts on garments seem to be all over the place. Sometimes things fit like a glove and other times, they are like burlap sacks. So generally, when I do buy Lip Service (which is not infrequently!), I buy it in person so I can try the garment on.

I made an exception for these sale pieces because honestly, they were just so ridiculously inexpensive. Two of the four pieces shown above were about $10 each!

It's no surprise all the items are black. Even though Lippy does make some really neat colored things, I know I will never wear them, so I stick to the solid blacks and whites.

I got a lot of sheer and light-weight items due to the summer heat. The great thing is I won't have to wait to wear these tops because they are all comfortable to sport in the Sacramento heat.

Stay tuned as I'm sure some of these will be featured in an outfit of the day post soon enough.

Until next time!
