1) Denim over denim look

Going denim over denim is one of the new trends that has become popular recently. From celebrities like Gigi Hadid to  Kendall Jenner, we have seen many celebrities rocking the double denim look. Denim over denim is such a timeless look and perfect for early Summer in San Francisco. If you aren’t confident about wearing double denim, pair it with any bold color top how I did and create your signature style.

2) There can be no Summer without wearing skirts

Skirts are versatile and one of the effortless street styles which you can flaunt while exploring a new city. From boho to chic to contemporary, you can create multiple looks wearing your favorite skirt styles. I packed mini, pencil and pleated skirts thinking if San Francisco weather would permit me to flaunt my street style swagger. Fortunately, it did as got a chance to witness some splendid sunshine!

3) Any animal print piece is a must

If you’re always obsessed with trending fashion, do invest in some beautiful animal print pieces as the trend is going to stay for the coming few seasons. The best part about animal print pieces is that they cast a leaner silhouette. I found this darling snake-print dress at NA-KD which is currently sold out but I have linked similar pieces for you.

4) Wide leg pants are an epitome of elegance

Nothing can beat the comfort of wide-leg pants or culottes on your trips. It is one of my favorite pieces when I’m traveling. From linen to corduroy to cotton, choose the fabric depending upon the season and you’re good to go anywhere.

5) Wine Country look

If you’re planning to visit San Francisco, do visit Napa and Sonoma Valley during your trip. Usually, the Wine Country weather is warmer than the weather of San Francisco City. You can wear one of your favorite Summer dresses for capturing some amazing shots in the vineyard. You can also keep a jacket in case the weather changes.

• Check out the weather and dressed accordingly.

• Do carry leggings or tights in case you’re planning to wear shorts during the early Summer as the weather is in the 60s with chilled winds near the Bay and The Golden Gate Bridge area.
