HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY / Festive outfit take one - Red, white, and chambray

PHOTOGRAPHY BY ED TRAN

I hope you had a great Fourth of July celebration!  For the lucky ones, you get to enjoy an extra long weekend of July 4th festivities but for the unfortunate ones who have to go back to work today, I feel your pain!  Thankfully the BART strike has temporarily ended so hopefully commute will be a lot easier for those who use BART.

For this joyous holiday in which we celebrate America's independence I wanted to don a little red, white, and blue.  Our dear friend Sharon accompanied us on this blog shoot and immediately she caught onto the theme of the outfit, she's good!  Her company was a wonderful addition and the three of us had good laughs catching up, sharing stories, and discussing the creep factor of using "POKE" on Facebook (I am all for it by the way!).  It was real humbling to hang out with Shar and Ed together because those two along with my cousin Alex and my mom are the people I owe this blog to; they are the backbone of the blog.  And if they are the backbone then all of you are the ribs because without your support, faith, and continual love, I would never have been able to keep at this.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!

This red, white, and blue outfit is better suited for a festive picnic or luncheon but stay tuned for a super casual, BBQ-appropriate festive outfit.  TGIF and have a wonderful weekend!!
