Alicia blogging in a Banana Republic sweater, Current/Elliot jeans, Alexander Wang pumps, and a Fenton/Fallon necklace.

Your make-up always looks so clean and dewy! Do you have any beauty advice or product recommendations?
I have fair skin and have always been careful about wearing sunscreen / hats when in the sun. I swear by Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer with SPF. I don’t like to wear a lot of makeup, so I’ll wear this moisturizer with pink blush and mascara. I also never leave the house without my Rosebud Salve — it’s my everyday lip gloss.

Has living in San Francisco helped inspire you to lead a glittery lifestyle?
Yes! I love exploring different neighborhoods, trying new restaurants, and discovering new boutiques / hidden gems. It is definitely an inspiring city to live in and I’ve loved my time spent here.

Where can you be found on the weekends?
I love going for walks in my neighborhood and grabbing brunch or coffee/tea with friends or my sister. I can usually be found walking along Chestnut, Union, or Fillmore Street in the afternoon and dining in the Mission or grabbing a glass of wine in the evenings. I also love lounging on a Sunday afternoon with a stack of magazines or good book.

How do you sparkle?
Mmm, I think I sparkle by being silly and making my friends and family laugh.

Alexander Wang Shorts, Erin Fetherston blouse, vintage Necklace, Christian Louboutin Heels, and Linda Farrow for The Row sunglasses.
