Guest Blog: Summer Vacation Kickstart by Victoria Smith of sfgirlbybay

I’m truly honored that one of my favorite bloggers, Victoria Smith from sfgirlbybay,  is kicking off my vacation guest bloggers today. I love her eye, her taste, her finds and that we both share a love of the beach & surf culture. Thanks for starting out the week for me, V! – jen

Greetings Indie Fixx readers, or should I say Aloha, since Jen is off for some much-deserved r&r at the beach?! This is Victoria from sfgirlbybay, and I’m dropping in for a little guest posting while Jen’s on holiday. I thought we’d travel along with her vicariously today with a little visit to surf city. Here’s a few images, and Etsy finds to get in you in the mood for a stylin’ and sunny summer vacation. I hope you’ve got a nice, warm holiday planned for this summer! Cowabunga, hang ten and thanks to Jen for having me!
