These photos were taken quite a while ago but when I look at them all I want to do is go on an adventure into the wilderness. It might help that I am listening to the Eddie Vedder “Into the Wild” album as I sit here reminiscing on weekend getaways.

You can’t really tell but my t-shirt says “SUMMER” on it and has been a favorite of mine lately. I got it from my grandma’s closet. Ehehe. I made to make some alterations to it so I didn’t look toooo much like I had just rolled out of bed. Only a little bit. What makes it even a little more cool is that the brand is COCO. A now none-existent brand. In my mind it really gives it that one-of-a-kind feel (unless some other girl my age decided to rummage through her grandma’s closet (who happens to have the same exact t-shirt.)) My summer tee is definitely the kind of thread I’d take with me on a trip and wear every other day.. and to bed.

And in my tee I can dream of sunshine, travel, and summer days.

I just got these bad boy boots in the mail and my feet are glued. I wore them all weekend. All weekend. Surprisingly I didn’t wear them in the water on accident. I originally got them for my trip to New York but have found them very useful to slip on and run around town (or the beach) in.

With that.. I think it’s really hard to find a balance between the cold and the warm fashion choices when you live in such a warm/humid (and I mean humid) place. I only know a very few girls who can pull off the winter look in Hawaii. I don’t know how they prevent profuse sweating under all those layers. But I struggle all the time with being “stylish” or “fashionable” because it is so easy to dress without effort here (and I don’t mean effortless style.. I’m talking about wearing your pajamas and other misc. items that just don’t make you feel good when you wear it). And so there is a struggle to maintain that “fashion” vibe when I’m trying to blog. It’s always refreshing to buy something new that can be worn repeatedly without feeling like you’re coping out. And it’s season appropriate.

In a nut shell: it is hard to be maintain fashion in a place where all you want to do is wear your bikini and pereu. But when you do find that one thing that you never want to take off.. wear it thin and wear it often. Because no matter where you are, who you are, and how “fashionable” you are.. it doesn’t matter unless it’s you. So who cares if you wear it as many times as there are days in the week! Just make sure you wash it and it doesn’t stink.

*Note: I don’t speak of “style” or “fashion” in a marketable sense, but for my own satisfaction of feeling confident and.. good.. with whatever I am wearing. It’s a personal thing.

And so, same boots different day everyday.
