Capsule SF Recap

Capsule SF has grown considerably from a few years ago when DIY vendor booths only populated the east side of Octavia Greens. Now vendors line both on the east and west sides of Octavia and shut down automobile traffic on Ivy Street to allow pedestrians to shop. The quality of the vendors remains consistent with a strong Bay Area contingent. With a planned visit from a friend, we patiently browsed booth by booth to scope out the eye-appealing and creative merchandise.

Later in the day, another friend visited with a box of fresh varietal mochi from Benkyodo. We decided to walk through Capsule SF and finally settle into Cafe la Vie to enjoy tea and mochi sweets. Since the cold wind picked up, I provided highlights to my friend and mentioned a few of my favorite vendors from my earlier visit. I could not wait for that hot tea and apple cider!

My favorite exhibitionist texture and color is patent red. This Taipan clutch exhibited pure bad ass attitude with a gold link chain strap and slithering snake to boot! In addition to being a visual spectacle, my olfactory receptors were addicted to the pure leather suede that lined the interior. By the time I came back for my second dose of Capsule, this purse was long gone.

We all know that females dress up for other females. Well which ever lucky dame struts around with this purse will leave many ladies sizing her up but failing miserably. I will keep my eye out for that fashionista!
