Greetings from Hawaii

Hello friends! Wish I could say I was relaxing by the beach or the pool but I am actually inside the nicely air-conditioned house. Yes, I am cheating. I don't care...it's hot. I promised myself I would take outfit pictures every day here but lately my outfits have consisted of bathing suits and cheap cover-ups. But here are a few good ones.

Frumpy Dumpy

I'll admit, when this picture was taken I was too cold to care about the fact that I looked frumpy!! Actually, I didn't realize until much later..... The treehouse you see behind me is the current work-in-progress of the husband and his friend. It is a little architectural summer project they have for their first client. Exciting? Yes. Probably not for you. That's okay. It is unfinished as you can see.

What is black and white and red all over?

I am still in a black&white phase. But I tried to mix it up with RED - but it still looks pretty bland. I just don't have the desire to wear color these days. Maybe next week. Wait, I'll be gone next week in Hawaii and my laptop will also be gone...to India, I suppose.

Almost Classy

I love black&white. It never disappoints you because it's such a classic color combo - look at Chanel. By the way, these shoes are not comfortable. I may have to wear them only for shorter outings because they're definitely not for walking. The weather here has been gloomy the past week but now that the sun is out, I should probably wear a skirt or something.

My Rainy Day Story

Coming home from work, I got off TRAX only to be pelted by the rain. So I waited under the shelter of a feeble tree until the husband came to pick me up at the TRAX stop. I still needed to take my picture but I figured we could do it in the parking garage again. I was wrong. The husband said the pictures were too dark and that there wasn't enough light so he made me step out into the rain for some "good pics." See what I do for my bloggers? I love you guys soooo much.

"This is not right. I am sure I shouldn't be wet while taking an outfit picture."

Serious-face

I feel so out-of-energy and tired today if you couldn't tell from my face. But I did make myself go outside to take a somewhat decent picture. It was really windy and the sun was in my eyes but the husband managed to find this nice little shaded area for me....love him!

Housewife

Not much of an outfit post. I just wanted to show off my dress which I bought for a dollar at a garage sale. YES, that's right....a dollar. It gives off that 50s housewife vibe, no? Sorry for all the garage posts. Today really was raining. Other times I am just too lazy.....will have to work on that.

A Touch of Ethnicity

I think if I could get away with it, I would wear these jeans allllll the time. Side question: Do my legs look short in these??? I love loose-fitting anything although it isn't flattering 90% of the time. My philosophy with boyfriend jeans is to make sure you have something form-fitting on top to balance the looseness on the bottom.

Quick Fix

I don't have a sewing machine and the one time I used it I went to a friend's house and horribly executed a supposedly simple task. I don't think I have the coordination skills to use a sewing machine properly!

Calivintage-inspired

My outfit today was largely inspired by Erin from calivintage. She is so creative with the AA sashes that she inspired me to use my scarf to belt my tshirt dress. It doesn't look as good as hers because my scarf isn't long enough and my waist isn't small enough :(.
