fashion inspiration

via Hel-Looks

I've been saving my favorite outfits from street fashion sites to use as inspiration when I'm shopping and dressing, and I'm beginning to see a theme. Apparently I heart floral skirts...and blondes...and Finland.

p.s. I can't wait to vote tomorrow! I hope you feel the same.

happy halloween

forgot to tell you

There is a sale going on here right now.

we were meant for each other

Don't you just love it when you fall in love with vintage items being sold online, but put off purchasing them for one reason or another then go on to wonder at your unbelievable luck when you stumble across eerily similar gems at the Salvo?  I know I do.

pumpkin picking

We went pumpkin picking at Aloun Farms in Kapolei over the weekend, and found the most perfectly perfect pumpkins for all our jack-o-lanterning needs.  The only thing missing now is a front stoop to set them on.

p.s. This is post number 201. Thanks for reading this long.

a list of things

this letter H is brought to you by Sweetshorn Vintage

This weekend I will be doing these things:
1. hiking to Makapu'u Lighthouse
2. going pumpkin picking
3. weighing possible pros and cons of purchasing the letter H you see above (starting with this pro: um...it's fantastic, and this con: the letter H is not significant for me in any way)
4. going swimming
5. taking a media break - no television or internet for me
6. baking something...or more likely asking R to bake something
7. sorting out A's halloween costume
8. taking a walk
9. playing bunco for the first time
