ON ROTATION

My accessories were on high rotation over the weekend. I pretty much ended up wearing the same thing every day. Not because I had no other choice or anything like that. The whole accessory getup seemed appropriate for the weekend.. especially the head scarf turned turban. It is a functionality and decorative aspect of summer style for myself. It keeps my seaweed hair out of the way and adds a bit of color and dimension to any of my outfits. I’m especially keen on finding vintage scarves. They are really hard to come by. I’ll search any where from Savers, Salvation Army and the occasional Ebay browse. When you find a good one it’s like finding gold!!

Anyway, these quick snaps were taken right before we rushed down to the pool. I cannot remember the last time I lounged at any pool let alone order drinks and pupu’s. Can you tell I’m not used to that kind of life?? Haha. Most of the time you’ll find me in my little hut in the country sitting on a futon munching on granola or something. Hah. But it was such a nice treat. Maybe I could move to Bali and have that lifestyle for real?! But that’s a whole other category of possibilities.

So into the summer with my accessories on high rotation!

FASHION ON STAYCATION

I got to spend the Memorial Day weekend in Waikiki for a little “staycation”.. something rarely done. And so I guess this is what fashion looks like when you’re on vacation on your home island?? Hah.. a little bit of this and that pulled together. I literary grabbed a bunch of stuff from my closet and threw it into a bag hoping it would all work out. No thought or pre-meditated fashion here! I suppose it did work in its own way.. a gypsy kind of way.

I have to admit: I forgot how beautiful Waikiki and it’s ocean is. All different shades of blue speckled with people on boards, yachts, and canoes. It’s kind of nice to be relaxing by the pool with live Hawaiian music playing. No wonder tourists buy into it so much!

It was such a nice little getaway. I’d hope to think it will happen more.
