In case you haven’t heard, Fleet Week is back and so are the US Navy Blue Angels. Last year, government cutbacks robbed us of this annual opportunity to pay tribute to the men and women of our nation’s armed forces. Love them for the impressive thrills they provide or hate them for the noise they create. You can catch the Blue Angels practice Friday from 3 to 4 p.m. But the real show happens Saturday and Sunday when air shows take place from 12:30 to 3 p.m., followed by the Blue Angels from 3 to 4 p.m. Here are five haute places to enjoy the excitement.

Fashion doesn’t stand still for baseball. Not even the San Francisco Giants. While many of you cheered on the orange and black on Oct. 7, more than 120 fashion-forward folks flocked to Union Square for a bash celebrating the grand re-opening of Burberry’s flagship store. DJ Zen Freeman performed a live set while guests sipped champagne and cocktails and checked out the dazzling new space. Here are some of the haute looks we saw:

You compost, bicycle to work, turn off lights when you leave the room and take short showers. But are you dressing in fabulous eco-friendly fashions? Just in time for Global Green USA’s 10th annual Gorgeous & Green Gala, taking place Friday, Oct. 10 at the LEED-certified Bently Reserve in San Francisco, the always stylish Lily Achatz shares with Haute Living her list of five haute green fashion designers to consider.

If you didn’t wilt in the scorching heat over the weekend, you’ve recovered from cheering our cover boy San Francisco 49er quarterback Colin Kaepernick on to victory and you’re trying to figure out what to do once the Giants game ends, don’t worry. We’ve got you covered with a terrific lineup of haute events all week long. Here’s where you should be going:

An uber-successful fashion show/luncheon featuring Carmen Marc Valvo’s dazzling 25th anniversary collection to benefit the Bay Area Arthritis Auxiliary, Hilary Swank at the opening of the Mill Valley Film Festival, a bespoke shopping experience for Veronica Beard fans at Neiman Marcus and shopping at Alexis Bittar The San Francisco Fall Antiques Show highlighted the Bay Area’s hautest festivities of the past week.

It’s hard to tell who’s having a better time — celebrity chef Michael Mina or the 49ers foodie fans who flock to the exclusive Michael Mina Tailgate at Bourbon Steak & Bourbon Pub at Levi’s Stadium on game days to enjoy a pregame tailgate experience like no other in the NFL. We checked out the ridiculously expensive feast last Sunday and were blown away with the fare, fun and fabulousness of it all. Do we dare say it is worth the $500 per person? Uh, yeah. It’s haute!

Marlowe, the beloved neighborhood restaurant in SoMA, reopens on Oct. 2 in its new location on the corner of Brannan and 4th Street and sporting a full bar, expanded menu and new services. We were on the scene last night for a haute preview party and loved what we saw — and ate. The soon-to-open burger window will be a big hit. Co-owner Anna Weinberg is calls it “Marlowe 2.0.”

You’ll think you’re wearing rose-colored glasses when you see The Ritz-Carlton, San Francisco in October. That’s because the stately hotel on Nob Hill has teamed up with the Breast Cancer Emergency Fund and will go pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The hotel’s exterior will turn pink on Oct. 1 and remain that hue throughout the month, when pink cocktails and a Pink Afternoon Tea will be offered. That’s why The Ritz-Carlton, San Francisco is our haute hotel of the month.

Sotheby’s private viewing of highlights from the art collection of Mrs. Paul Mellon, a salute to the Designer’s Circle and Collective of The San Francisco Fall Antiques Show and an exquisite dinner to celebrate a big announcement by Breguet and the Legion of Honor were among the hautest events this week. Read on for more details plus a look at what’s on tap for next week.
