Feeling a little under pressure at the office or just need a break in tedium? Give the Hotel Triton a go and make your way to the city of San Francisco! Hotel Triton is located right in downtown, near all the shopping, shows and sights and the hotel itself is definitely a sight to see. Inspired by pop art and culture, the hotel is full of bright colors, whimsically shaped archways and windows and ever-changing local art and photos. Each of the 140 rooms available at Hotel Triton are equally delightful in visual stimulation, but are also uniquely designed to follow a tastefully fun theme. If all the activities of the city in the near vicinity get a little overwhelming, relax indoors at the hotel that also houses a cafe full of scrumptious treats, a wine tasting and tarot reading hour every evening, and fresh baked cookies every afternoon. On top of all that, there are also spa and gym services plus free wi-fi in every room and zebra print bathrobes for lounging. And the Hotel Triton can boast in being one of the first eco-friendly hotels, offering many services that are nicer to Mother Earth. Really wanna feel like home during your little getaway? Hotel Triton is also pet friendly so bring Rover along too make it a real family vacation! And if you're like me and already live in the great city of San Francisco, take a weekend and see the city through a tourist's eyes! Check out the slideshow to see the colorfully designed and pop-art inspired Hotel Triton for yourself.
Exhibit Your Style With Pop Art-Inspired Tees

Back in the '50s Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein were on to something, and T-shirt designers right now on the cusp of 2010 know it. There's nothing like exhibiting our own art museum on the streets with the help of a graphic tee. With contrast imaging and sometimes bright, vibrant colors, these T-shirts can be as eye catching as a print on your bedroom wall. As most T-shirts, they're great for weekend wear and after-work/school comfort, but also boast a "look at me!" mentality that you'd be silly not to flaunt out and about. Commercial stores like Urban Outfitters and Wet Seal have caught on the trend, but going the vintage boutique route could also score you some killer art-piece-like wear. While it may be impossible to get an original pop-art multi-colored Marilyn Monroe lithograph portrait, an eccentric collection of pop-art inspired clothing is a fun and approachable way to tune into your inner art-lover. See the slideshow for some creative, everyday tees!
