Ah, found the perfect pair of slouchy jeans! They aren’t too long, so I can wear them with flats, and they are soft and comfy. Love this!

My friend Dawn from Fashion Should be Fun wears a lot of Ruti and she always looks fabulous in their clothing. So, when Ruti reached out and offered me a pair of jeans, I jumped at the chance! Their clothing is high quality and not overly trendy, so it can flow from season to season effortlessly. After all, I love investment pieces!

These slouchy jeans will be easy to wear throughout the fall season, winter season and beyond. They’re jeans, they go with almost everything. So, I am sure you will be seeing me wear these again and again. Love!

So, stay tuned for more outfit ideas with these slouchy jeans for the fall season! Love them!

Late summer outfit for wine tasting

It’s the perfect time of year for an evening wine tasting. The weather is perfect once dinner time hits, so enjoying an evening outside is ideal.

As the summer months start to near an end, I try to mix fall style with warm, summer weather style. This is easy to do with fall colors and lightweight clothing. Berry hues, dark tees, and flats are an easy way to get a fall look, while still dressing for the weather. Love that!

Over the weekend, my friend invited me to wine tasting at Testarossa in Los Gatos. Of course, I said yes!

The wine is really good. We enjoyed chardonnay and pinot noir as well as one rose. They were all good, but the 2024 Rosella’s Vineyard Chardonnay was my favorite. We also enjoyed some delicious food; huge shout-out to the perfectly cooked French Fries. So good!

So, if you are local, I highly recommend visiting Testarossa for an evening wine tasting. You will enjoy it!

Summer day in San Jose

There is always something going on during the summer! In July, the annual Italian Festa took place at History Park San Jose, located inside Kelley Park.

We arrived a bit early so we could snag a parking spot in the closest parking lot, which meant we arrived before the festa began. So, we took that opportunity to take a relaxing walk through the Japanese Friendship Garden. The garden has been refreshed since we last visited, so it was nice to see the fountain on, the koi fish swimming, the gardens manicured and a turtle enjoying life in San Jose.

After walking through the gardens, we walked over to the festa. It was fun to see a street fair inside the park. This made the event feel safe and the booths easier to visit. Love the venue!

There were flag throwers from Italy, booths with history lessons, delicious food choices, and a showcase of all the Italian Immigrants who contributed to the building of San Jose and the greater Bay Area. There were parts which included my ancestors, so it was extra special. Love!

I am looking forward to attending the fest again next summer when it returns to History Park San Jose. If you are local, I recommend attending too!

Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO
