We in San Francisco love our local designers, so it's no surprise that when we saw Erica Tanov's newest S/S 2010 collection of luxuriously laid back, charming knits and dresses, we had to share it with everyone. Hailing from Berkley, Erica Tanov's simplistic and chic designs have a tinge of bohemian style and an earthy vibe, making it a local favorite that has spread all the way to the East Coast with stores in New York as well. Sweetly feminine, comfortably chic and casually sensual, Erica Tanov's newest collection has you dreaming of hazy afternoons with a loved one and a purely content state of mind. Featuring long knit tops and linen pieces that skim the body plus comfy looking pieces that make you look your ready for a romantic moonlit dinner and then curling up with a loved one, Erica Tanov's designs are perfect for a summer look of laid back luxury.Click on the slideshow to see some of my favorite Erica Tanov S/S 2010 designs, plus find some of your own!

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?
