San Diego Skyline Cocktail Glasses, $39.99 | “These rocks glasses are perfect for a cozy cocktail — like a classic Old Fashioned.”
San Diego Print, $12+ | “I love a good piece of wall art — and this one features so many local landmarks that make SD special.”

Brianna: “I’ve recently ditched the purse for a fanny pack to go totally hands-free while walking around town, which is why I’m eyeing these colorful fanny packs from Burlaep. (Pair it with this cute embroidered baseball cap and you’ve got a perfect city ‘fit.)”

Emily: “I love waking up with a warm cup of chai tea in the morning — especially when it’s in a cute squirrel mug.”
Jessa: “Everyone loves a big fancy candle. Plus, get some decorative matches to... match.”
