Press Level Fashion: Sharks Training Camp
Happy Hockey Season, all you pretty Pink Puck readers!
After the absolute longest offseason ever for us NorCal kids due to watching the Sharks totally tank–see what I did there–it’s finally time for training camps and preseason play.
Which also means: Busting out my arsenal of stockings!
Unfortunately, the weather outside and the conditions at the rink do not coincide; just because hockey season has started does not mean that the California heat is going to quietly bow out for the late-summer-early-fall months.
That means layering, and lots of it.
Those of you who read my game-day log last season know that I’m a huge fan of layers and proportions and what-not. So then, you would also figure that this seemingly conservative ensemble is not so “librarian” as it looks. I took a sweet, black, high-waisted skater skirt and black-and-white checked halter top from Brandy Melville, which is incredibly summer-y and not at all work appropriate. However, BM’s separated are soft and light-weight and perfect for layering. So for the first day of camp, I paired the ensemble with basic black tights, a long black button-up cardigan and my ballet flats. I was covered up enough to be professional at work–well, and warm, that’s kind of important–plus I was able to shed a few layers afterwards before heading over to the bar for a glass of wine!
We’ve just hit the tip of the iceberg, fellow fashionistas. There is a long season of hockey and haute outfits ahead of us. We’ll chat again as preseason play gets underway.
Until the next puck drops,

Go Sharks! RIP SF Bulls, miss the bier garten!
Agreed. I never got to try the beer garden, but it always looked like fun.
