San Fran: Noe Valley Boutiques

While visiting my sis-in-law and her fam in San Fran, we strolled through the neighborhood we were staying in and passed a handful of the cutest decor boutiques.  Our apartment we stayed in was within walking distance to Starbucks (manditory when your little ones stay on East Coast time), Whole Foods, and all of the shops and eateries.  I was able to snap a few pics while running in and out of each of them.

If you make your way to the area, you have got to check them out!  It totally reminds me of the Carytown section of Richmond.  

Obviously not a decor boutique, but it was very convenient to scoop up food for the kids!  I could not believe they had large pumpkins that were three for $10!

Imagine their excitement about shopping...at least Livi looked cute in her Missoni for Target sweater.

One of my favorite shops was When Modern Was.  They had a ton of dressers, buffets, and tables that were refurbished with chic paint colors and finishes.

LOVED this bird lamp!

Remember my chair revamp?  This gem gives me inspiration for a future overhaul!

This one-of-a-kind owl lamp was made completely by hand!

 Several flower shops adorned the streets of Noe Valley - I just love the colors and assortment!

There were lots of other shops I failed to snap pics of, but I was a fan of the all-women's running store - See Jane Run.  What a great concept!
