An Experiment in Extreme Weather Photography (Part I)

So, Hawaii is beautiful. Sun, sand, surf, tropical scenery, beautifully warm… but it can get super windy. Taking outfit photos when you can't even stop the wind from blowing your clothes off (metaphorically - mostly…) is super difficult! Plus, my trusty photographer (thanks, mom!) can barely get a look at the viewfinder when her hair is blowing in her face, too! (100 bonus points if you're old enough to even know what a viewfinder is.) We did our best. ;)

On Saturday, we took a little ride from where we are staying (Kihei) down to Lahaina… we walked around the shops (I got a vintage-inspired tourist-y Maui tee that I'm sure you'll be seeing here soon!), grabbed some Lappert's ice cream (a Hawaiin staple!), and basked in the shade of the 100 plus-year-old giant Banyan tree!

{the beautiful banyan - one of my favorite spots on maui since i was a little one!}
Then we traveled to Kapaula to visit some family friends, and we saw this stunning rainbow on the way! I mean, it doesn't get any better than this… I don't think you ever outgrow the magic of seeing a real rainbow in person!

Though it was POURING RAIN by the time we got to Kapaula (hello, temperamental weather!), we enjoyed some pupus (Hawaiian for appetizers) and some perfect homemade Mai Tais!

{yum!}
More to come soon! :)

Friday's Fancies: May Flowers

{earrings / shirt / purse / shorts / boots}
Let me just tell you all: I love a floral print! Let me also tell you: I sometimes have a fear of looking too "girly." So my best bet for incorporating florals into your look without going overboard femme? Add some tougher plaid, some studs, some fringe to balance out the femininity... and/or put your floral print on a more menswear-style cut - like these rad Doc Martens! What's your favorite way to style floral?
