Farmers Market

Almost everyday you can find a farmers market in the Bay Area. My family usually goes to the one on Saturdays, which is held at a community college. I'm usually too tired to get up in time to go, but was able to rise and shine for this one. Enjoy the pics :)

Hahahaha... yes I was really concentrating on that orange. Did. Not. Want. To. Drop. It. 
And I didn't, whew.

Can you believe... I got these flowers for free?! They are just gorgeous :)

MMmmm. Fresh orange juice :) Can you tell I really like it? Haha...

Oh yeah, and these oranges? ...well I got them for free too! :)

Flavored honey, not sure if it still is, but growing up this was my sister's favorite :)

top - H&M, skirt - Wet Seal, wedges - Aldo, purse - Aldo, necklace - Aldo

As you can see, I don't really care if my manicure matches my pedicure exactly!! Spring colors, with spring colors, that's fine with me! What's your say on it? Are you adamant about keeping them both the same color, or at least within the same color family?

Give or take a few months, everything I'm wearing is about 2 years old... except my purse, which you've probably noticed in almost every single outfit post, haha. 

Soooooo, as for my free oranges and flowers. It was so crazy!! As my mom says, you're only young once. :D Both of the men that gave me either the oranges or the flowers were much older, and very sweet. I was so surprised, but I guess that is what happens when you're the fanciest girl there, taking pictures. :) 

Do you ever go to the farmers market? In case you're not sure what it is: it's a weekly occurrence, always in the morning, and they tend to close up shop at 1. It's full of farmers, florists, bread makers, occasionally jewelers, kettle corn vendors, specialty foods - like Indian, Afghani, Japanese, etc. Oh and I absolutely love the breakfast crepe stand. They put spinach, 4 cheeses, tomatoes, all sorts of delicious stuff into the crepes, and I think it is healthy too (besides the cheese of course). When it all comes down to it, the corn, strawberries, green onions, salsa, kiwis, mandarin oranges, orange juice (and the summer seasonal stuff I can't remember what they're called) and crepes are my absolute favorites.

By the way I'm featured on Smashion.com in their "lounge." Check out the interview here :) 

P. S. Don't forget about the Teeki Oscar's Bag Giveaway, and keep watch for the Hello Kitty giveaway coming soon!

Aw, Jess, I think this is my favorite post from you so far! :)
The farmer's market is such a great place to take photos. You've made me want to go to ours now. haha, although the ones here in Idaho aren't half as lively as the Bay Area is.
The one picture of you concentrating on that orange is hilarious xD Made me laugh when I read your caption! Haha, wouldn't want to drop it either.
And seriously? Its true, you're only young once! Haha, that's so funny. What sweet old men.
LOVE the spring colors. Especially the wedges <3
Adore the spring theme here!

I love everything about this outfit! The skirt is really cute and the shoes are lovely. All of it actually is just awesome and I would wear the whole outfit right now..well once the snow goes away :) That's cool you got those things for free, including an orchid flower! awesome. Old men are sweet sometimes ;)

I used to go to farmer's markets every week when I was little, in Poland. Good memories that I miss! Oh and that was a fun interview, congrats!

Josie said...

awww, how freakin adorable! It is so perfect for Spring :) really love all the colors, they look very nice on you!

I don't really care to match my polishes.. but that's because I'm a tad lazy and don't really color my fingers to begin with... let alone my toes! (That would mean i would have to touch my feet! ~____~)

And so nice of them to give you the free fruit and flowers! Beautiful flowers! The farmers markets in Sacramento doesn't usually start up until Spring (I think?!) They are about 15 min. drive from where I live, one is kinda small and the other is a little bigger! I wish I could go but work prevents me :( I love to support local and you get it so fresh, and usually good pricing! What's not to love? :)

ps, love that action shot with the orange!!!♥ :)

Josie said...

Love this look! I love how you mixed the denim shirt with the floral skirt! I usually hate denim but its really growing on me this season! Dont worry, your mani pedi looks great! Usually I always like to match, but sometimes I change my nails way too often! You don't want to see my pedi right now, its been winter!!!!

This is a gorgeous outfit. The skirt is so cute. I love color, it makes everything so cheerful. Farmer's markets are such fun adventures and even more fun when you get stuff for free.

LeeAnne, Style N Season said...

No wonder, Jessica! You're very beautiful!
Yes, I'm familiar with farmer's market, used to go to some when I still lived in the US, but I never went there as dressed up as you did in this post. No wonder you get free fruits and flowers! No doubt that you're the prettiest girl over there!
