Street Style Report: A Local Promoter Shows Us Four Fall Looks, in Hayes Valley
Meet Ava Berlin – oh-so polished, incredibly genuine and the best kind of diva. Le sigh. Few people I know can manage such a hectic schedule, mingle so seamlessly with low and high brow circles, laugh with such joy, and always look as stunning as Ava.
Street Style Report: Local Artist Kelly Tunstall Shows Us Four Spring Looks, in Presidio Heights
You may recognize Kelly Tunstall's artwork from her mermaid murals at Bar Crudo. Or maybe you've come across her work at a local gallery. I first saw her artwork years ago, at 111 Minna, and was instantly charmed. Her whimsical figures and enchanting use of color make her artwork distinct and easily lovable.
I later met Kelly at a party in the Mission, and went gaga over her green Dries Van Noten pumps. It's no surprise that the creator of such lovely pieces of art would have an incredible sense of style, too.
