About me

What to wear. Where to go. What's actually worth doing.

I'm Daphne—a California girl figuring out my style, chasing great experiences, and staying curious about what's next.

Girl in the Fog is about what comes after the past versions of ourselves: clearing out what no longer fits, finding a style that actually feels like who we are now, and getting out there and living in it.

Here you'll find what I'm wearing and where I'm going—from weekend escapes, concerts and wine country to side streets, little hotels, great restaurants and adventures farther from home.

I'll share what I discover along the way: where I'd go again, what I'd wear, what I'd pack, and what I'd do differently—so you can steal the good ideas for your own adventures.

This isn't about dressing younger, traveling farther, or having the perfect life.

It's about staying curious.

Come wander with me.

How I Plan Every Trip (Without Overpacking or Overplanning)

There was a time when I packed a giant suitcase for every trip. I’d bring outfits “just in case,” book too many activities, and spend my vacation rushing from one side of the city to the other. Somehow, I always came home realizing I’d worn the same few outfits and barely had time to enjoy where I was. Eventually, I realized the problem wasn’t my packing. It was my planning. Over the years, I’ve developed a simple system that helps me travel lighter, stay organized, and make

You Can't Beat a Summer Night in Mill Valley

The Perfect Mill Valley Cocktail & Apps Crawl for a Summer Date Night There’s something magical about Mill Valley on a warm summer evening.

Experience Sonoma Wine Country in a Whole New Way at Benziger Family Winery

When most people picture a wine tasting in Sonoma, they imagine sitting on a patio with a beautiful view and a flight of wines. While there’s nothing wrong with that, some wineries invite you to experience much more than what’s in your glass. That’s exactly what you’ll find at Benziger Family Winery in Glen Ellen. Instead of heading straight to a tasting room, you’ll climb aboard an open-air tractor tram that takes you through the vineyards, stopping along the way to learn ab

A Weeknight Giants Game Turned Into the Ultimate Ballpark Food Crawl
