    One pair of boots, one low healed casual sandals and one dressy shoe. No more. That is my mantra that has worked so far, I've not been to Las Vegas and I would worry about the heat, so lightweight but covered due to sun. Love your aesthetic, thanks for sharing. I'm doing 10 days in London, Paris and Rome next year and already trying to prepare lol.

    I can't not express to you how much I love your videos and how much you have inspired me to be more minimalistic. Thank you so much for the effort you put in each one of your videos 👍😊

    San Francisco is not hot all year. It's actually rarely hot, it has very mild weather- rarely very hot or very cold. It's pretty nice right now (I live near there) but can still get windy and cool or foggy in the evening, especially in the western half of the city., closer to the ocean. Oakland can often be 10-20 degrees warmer than SF.
    For SF, just remember always bring a hoodie or sweatshirt for layering.
    You can probably skip the heavy coat, you should be fine with the leather jacket and lighter coat.
    I would also skip the umbrella, it is VERY rare to get any rain from May-October.

    How lovely that you are visiting San Francisco! I'm from just south of there and I want to warn you that it can be absolutely FREEZING there due to the cold sea air and thick fog. When it's clear and sunny it can be gorgeous, and hopefully you'll get some weather like that , but be prepared for cold. There's a famous quote that is (probably inaccurately) attributed to Mark Twain that says it all: "The coldest Winter I ever spent was Summer in San Francisco." You are right that the surrounding areas (such as Oakland, etc) are significantly warmer. Anyway, love your videos and welcome to Cali! Hope you have a great time. :)

    I was there years ago. It's damp and cool kind of like Germany where I live now. Warm during the day. Your sweatshirt will come in handy. Leave your blowdryer at home in Europe. You will find the electrical is incompatible unless you have a transformer. If you're at a hotel, they usually have hairdryers in the room anyway. I never bring one anymore.

    Love, love, love this video! (But then I always love your videos.) Beautiful outfit options, they are my colors too. I hope you have a wonderful trip. San Francisco is one of my favorite places. Las Vegas can be really hot! Maybe throw in a couple shorts and tank tops or yes, even a thin dress. Keep the great videos coming!

    Welcome to San Francisco! The weather is perfect this week, I am sure you will be flying SAS I used to work for them too bad I am not there anymore to welcome you in person :( Enjoy your visit! Go to the wine country and Carmel if you get the chance. the drive to Las Vegas is approximately 10 hours and yes the desert is really hot. Have Fun!

    Hope you had a great trip! It's going to be chilly here in SF for the next week, so the scarf and jackets were the perfect call. Las Vegas is usually very warm, but the indoors are overly air-donditioned - and too chilly for my taste.

    I would recommend rolling your close, it creases less and gives you more space, and those travel bags from ikea work just fine for that👌 Have a great trip, enjoy it! ❤️

      Anastasiia Levchenko Laying them flat like she does actually creates more space.

    • @AnastasiaJollin
      @AnastasiaJollin 7 років тому +2

      M H Than may be it's just personal preference, it works for me way better and I always have more room and less creases only when I put the rolls inside of the travel bags if not, they unroll.

    You mentioned maybe picking up a vintage dungaree jacket. I recommend checking out my very favorite vintage store St. Lightning on 1815 polk St. in SF everything they have is perfect. Or Wasteland on Haight Street. Also check out the Sutro Bath House ruins at sunset for a beautiful view. Have fun!!!

    There is a famous quote: "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco." That gives you an idea about the weather. Your leather jacket, boots etc. will come in handy. It is not a warm city. Enjoy.

    now your near my neck of the woods lol hope you enjoy yourself Frisco and Oakland is usually nice about 75 and breezy during the day so for the most part great whether Las Vegas is going to be boiling hot, try to get over to Sausalito and Napa if you get the chance so pretty

    I love seeing packing videos, they are so helpful.
    I never realized how organised packing needed to be until I started full time travel and had to be super careful with what i pack and take with me :P
    If you get chance, I make travel videos and share my journey of working online and traveling full time.
    Also I love your bags and how you have images of all your clothes on the computer to create documents!! I wish i had the patients to do that :P

    Where is your jewelry box from?

  • @pen5532
    @pen5532 7 років тому

    I am native to the San Francisco Bay Area. A key for you is to dress in layers, and always bring your light jacket no matter where you go. it is not uncommon to have a nice day that 78 degrees Fahrenheit and then have the clouds come in and it cool down to 58 degrees. San Francisco is much cooler than Oakland but Oakland is still relatively cooler than some of the other areas in the Bay Area. if you want a great workout, rent a bicycle and ride across the Golden Gate Bridge it's a good workout and it's beautiful. this is a great place with many things to do enjoy your trip!

    You will need dresses or shorts in Las Vegas. Very hot, but cool at night. San Francisco is a great city for walking. The steep hills will give you a very good work out. No gym required. You can't imagine until you see them. Also, parking one's car is almost impossible, so take the BART train from Oakland and walk.

  • @katalingerstenberger5866
    @katalingerstenberger5866 7 років тому

    About SF weather; You will see people in shorts and flipflops, and puffer jackets w Ugg boots all on the same day. Very schizzofrenic! Like somebody said here before me; 4 seasons every day, minus the snow or below freezing. Plus; next time you go, drive down to Big Sur and Carmel, and when in SF and going over the GGB, stop in Sausalito! Beautiful views of the city!

    Hej Signe, jeg plejer altid at medbringe en stikdåse. Min erfaring er, at vi altid mangler stik til opladning af telefoner og kamera! Og så køber jeg gerne billige bøjler (nogen gange fås de gratis), som jeg kan efterlade efter brug. Rigtig god tur - jeg er også på vej til Cali - i 3 dejlige uger.
