Berkeley Style

I cruised over to Berkeley today for a bit of a cultural refresher...

If you ever find yourself ravenously hungry in Berkeley mid-afternoon you have GOT to check out Cafe Intermezzo. The sandwiches on their house-made honey wheat bread will KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF. Not kidding!!

My friend Stephaweisen and I enjoyed a delicious meal under the brightly decorated tree in the dining area.

The strawberry lemonade was delicious and I was nearly floored by the generous helping of cream cheese on my vegetarian sandwich.

We decided to stop into a local vintage clothing shop up the street on Telegraph named Mars Clothing. The place had a nice vintage-y feel and was well organized (VERY IMPORTANT IN THE THRIFTING WORLD). Here I found a cute 1960's nighty/dress slip/I would probably end up wearing it like a dress by throwing on a belt and some boots with it.

Although they were definitely on the pricey side, the shoe selection was OUTSTANDING. If you're in the market for a new pair of vintage boots (ironic?) I would HIGHLY recommend this place as there were many great styles to choose from.

This is Jason from the band Jackson Utah. He was looking dapper in his weathered fedora and brown polyester blazer so I hailed him for a photo op. He suggests living in Berkeley over San Francisco because people are more friendly on the east side of the bay.
