I'm moving across country in October. Its super exciting but not sure what to get so I'm stick with some basics like PJs, maybe some beauty items and a pair of jeans as you will always need those. Anyone from San Francisco and can shed light on how cold fall and winter can be.

San Francisco is all about layering. Could be a nice day and then fog rolls in and it gets cold. Winter tends to be rainy and cold. It’s never going to get as cold or as hot and humid as say Chicago or New York.

I've lived in SF for 25 years. Time flies! October is usually our nicest month -- with the highest temperatures. In previous years it's been 100 for a few days during that month. Our rainy/cold season is in January. But it is hotter during the day and then when the sun goes down the temperature definitely drops. Jeans, comfortable walking shoes, and cardigans would definitely be good purchases.

100 degrees is not typical for SF though. 90 degrees during the summer is considered hot. Most older buildings don’t have AC because you never needed it! In the winter, it seems to be always around 56-58 degrees. Sometimes it dips into the 40s which is unusual.

Thank you! We are super excited. I got a new job, reason for move. We are getting married in September moving from ATL to SF in October. I guess since we did nothing last year we are doing everything this year

Does anyone have recs for lightweight throws that tend to show up during the sale? Need a few for tv watching .

+1 on the Nord bliss throws. I think they were $19.90 when I bought mine and the brand was called Kennebunk. Or that was what it was called - I don’t remember

Oooh I hope they have some kind of jumbo Nécessaire deal. I recently started using the body lotion and body serum and they are AMAZING.

I bought a set last year with the body lotion and body wash. Haven’t used the body wash but I love the lotion

Yes, totally agree ... that's why I said 100 degree temps are usually only a few days!

This convo has been super helpful to me too, so thanks ladies! I'm moving from New Orleans to Alameda in three weeks and I'm super excited. I'm in the military so I move frequently, but I've never lived on the west coast. The lack of humidity is going to be a weird experience for me. Can't wait to see how my course, kinda curly/normally frizzy hair responds! I'm pumped for the sale and already added a calendar reminder on my phone for the preview and the start of the sale.

The East Bay is way warmer than San Fran! You will be able to wear summer clothes on that side of the bay !

Adding another recommendation for the Kennebunk throw. I have like four now. The price is incredible, they're super soft, hold up great to lots of use and wash beautifully. I bought the barefoot dreams throw last year because of all the hype and it was amazing at first, but I feel like it's not nearly as soft after washing it several times. I also bought one of the thick, fuzzy Ugg throws last year and I absolutely love it, but it's pretty heavy so I really only use it in the winter. The Kennebunk throws are great year round.

Glad to hear that. I'm a Floridian at heart and despise being cold so I'll definitely appreciate being in a bit of a warmer climate. I did four years in Boston and another four years in Cleveland and HATED the winters in both. Unless I was snowboarding...that's the only time it's tolerable!

Then East Bay will definitely be more up your alley than SF! Have a great move and thank you for your service

Alameda is a darling area. You will love it. Keep us posted on the move and thank you for your service!

The lack of humidity will be weird, I have never lived where it wasn't humid in the summer, never lived on the west coast either. We are going this weekend to search out apartments and neighborhoods. I hopeing for less cottonball like hair in the summer..

I know this isn't the forum, however if any of you locals have local restaurant suggestions please share. Txs

I just heard there will be Dior handbags in the sale this year!
And the SAs I’ve heard from are very pleased with the quality of the designer items this year. Not “made for the sale” quality as in years past, and good selection as well.

It’s sounding like it’s going to be a good one. I am disappointed that the lower 2 levels of Nordy Club were combined...I don’t think people who spend $2k/year should be lumped in with just cardholders. Maybe that’s just me though.
