Oakland at it's best!

Hands down! Best dressed couple of the night

Since getting back from Europe I've been spending a lot less time in San Francisco and have quickly been falling in love with Oakland. While attending Oakland's monthly art walk I couldn't help but snap up some pictures of some stylish individuals who caught my eye.

Love the dress, the teal converse sneakers... and let's not forget that smile!

This guy's afro is perfection!

I would kill to raid this girl's wardrobe

This girl's best accessory is definitely her smile

Love these glowing gloves. Check out her website artsygeek

 I really like the idea of living in an area that is undergoing a renaissance of change and being surrounded by artists and bohemians that are bringing a new direction to a neighborhood. For those of you who are familiar with Brooklyn, NY, I feel that Oakland is going in a similar direction as Brooklyn did. There was a time when Brooklyn had a terrible reputation, now its known as one of the hippest places to live. San Francisco has lost so much of the Bohemian personality that made it famous and it seems to me that many of the innovative restaurants, artists and thinkers in the bay area are heading to Oakland. Give me a few more months and I'll be one of them.
