Steam Trunk Couture Archery Gloves - Five and Diamond SF

I had a delightfully quiet Thursday to myself this past week and I was finally able to make it back to Five and Diamond to take advantage of a sale they were having.

I've been eyeing Steam Trunk's Archery Gloves for more than a year now after trying them on at the Edwardian Ball. I'm happy to say that after a year of lusting I bought them.

Gloves for me, unfortunately, are a bit like hats. I seem to really love them, I spend a decent amount of money on them and then never seem to find anything appropriate to wear with them. But these gloves are too damn gorgeous and buttery soft for me to avoid wearing them. That being said they are slightly large on me, but I can accept that since they make me look completely badass.

I also picked up this lovely watch necklace, mostly for the color scheme.

I stumbled across 780 Cafe in between shopping and going to a friend's place to watch Game of Thrones. It's a very pleasant space for a design geek like myself and the mocha I ordered was pretty decent. I also finally got some use out of my new h.naoto Blood bag, which I was worried was a little too small but comfortably accommodates my huge Juicy Couture wallet, my camera and my giant brick of a portable phone charger/battery with room to spare.

mm, mocha..

I also happened to run into this little cutie, dressed to match her owner. I then creepily asked for a photo.

I wish you could see me or the bizarre window display better.

I really need to spend more of my days off in the city. It's fun to go exploring and there's a lot to see.
