Arm Candy

Arm candy, the latest trend that I haven't quite experimented... Perhaps I'm just too picky about my selection, but really it's because my teeny tiny wrists can't adorn the normal size bracelets, waaaah!

My style for arm candy is mixing simpleness with a little edge OR you can go the other popular route and go a little Gypsy --- everything from Hermes to Cartier mixing with eclectic neon color friendship bracelets. Which is your style? What I would do to get an Hermes bracelet slapped on my wrist.. swoooon.

My personal favorite is of course Olivia Palermo's arm candy. 3 pieces of cc skye spike bracelet in gold and silver. so simple yet a statement piece. Get on my wrist!

W H I T E

Whoever created the term 'HAPPY HOUR' is a genius and I must thank you. Started in familiar territory then drifted through the night in unfamiliar terrortiy while walking aimlessly into the streets of tourist-filled Waikiki.

Definitely was in my comfort zone at my usual happy hour spot, then definately stuck out like a sore thumb as I ventured toward 'hawaiian' land... As I stood at the suffocating and overcrowded bar with a beer in hand, wearing my white blazer, I observed in passing, girls wearing skin tight dresses and borderline hooker heels.. stood out like a sore thumb.  Finished half my beer and jetted off.




candids.

4 cocktails, 1 glass of wine, 2 beers later this is the end result.  Singing karaoke in public..  Thank you alcohol for giving me 'beer- confidence' instead of 'beer-goggles'.

Gallivanting around

Late (really late) Fourth of July post..

Spent my 3 day weekend with alot of bbq-ing on our patio and feeding my mouth with meat, meat and more meat.  Of course, my weekend isn't officially a weekend without some cocktails.  Met up with a friend sipping on cocktails, wine and more cocktails, bar hopping, mischievous behavior,  late night karaoke, and finally ending the night satisfying our hunger pangs with comfort food -- saimen overloaded with Tabasco (don't judge.)


You can NOT end the night out without her wanting a bathroom picture. Can't stop it. lol

Lately

Such complete bliss coming back from a much needed stay-cation last week. Photos below show just the tip of the iceberg on the highlights of my week, mainly involving late (late) night drinking.

Lunch date at Downtown @ HISAM
 

Art Museum above Downtown restaurant

 

 New pair of Jcrew flats. They feel like walking on air.

Our many stops to the garden section of Home Depot.  Attempting to grow organic vegetables and fruits

Wedding at Ko'olau.  No pics of me in my super cute cream and yellow dress I bought! :( Another reason why I question my blogs existence when there are no photos to share!

Just one of the many late late nights out.  See something new? Yup, I finally got me some bangs! still contemplating on keeping them or not. Enjoying the guy in the background? lol


It's officially SUMMER!
Which means weddings galore.  If you live in Hawaii and need a great makeup artist & hair for your special day, check out Susan!

Test Walk

Just a short update for those who have (or not) missed my blog posts. For those who missed me, continue reading below.

Finally took my heels out for a test walk this past weekend while spending some qt time with the boy, just us.. how rare!  We've been so accustomed to going out with friends that it was refreshing and quite an adventure to spend a night in town with your other half.  Drinking and eating, it's what we do best.

Hello Lover



Words can't explain the excitement of finallly owning a pair of 'red soles'. Girls badly want it, guys just don't understand the red sole phenomenon-- just let girls be girls. There it was, at my doorstep just screaming my name to be opened, it was Christmas in April. I have yet to master walking in these almost 5-inchers without looking like a fool.. carpet walking until I am ready.

Here's to the beginning of a new addiction.  Move aside purses, you have competition..

Yes, please

Oh my!
A perfect inspiration to convert one of the rooms into dreamy a walk-in closet such as this.  Using a simple white bookcase-like design to showcase your shoes and purses is design at it's finest. Now I just need to accumulate fabulous heels worthy enough to be displayed.

Aside from fashion being my hobby, interior design would follow right behind it.  Keeping with my personal style of minimalism and modern, taking those elements definitely help inspire me to build my dream home --- one room at a time --- starting with a walk in closet!
