Outfit | Sunday Heat

Tee: Brandy Melville | Shorts: Hollister | Bag: HOBO | Shoes: Forever21 (Not Pictured)  

I can't even begin to explain to you how scorching hot it was today. I wasn't expecting it at all because the last three days have been cloudy and rainy... Where did this weather come from?

Either way I spent most of my morning and noon fanning myself and putting whipped cream on brownies. It was so sunny that I couldn't even take photos in my usual place. The sun was too strong so I used the shade from this tree... I think they turned out all right. 

I was originally planning on wearing something a bit more... Complete (not just a tee shirt and shorts)  but within three seconds my original outfit got too hot so I had to resort to this.

For shoes I went with my grey t-strap suede sandals from Forever21, and just for fun I thought I would use this bright colored scrunchie! It's literally such a pretty orange and I'm semi-obsessed with it. 

In the afternoon my friends picked me up and we actually hiked down to Slippery Slides which is this place on the river. It's kind of a pain in the butt to get down to because it involves a lot of rock hopping and wading through the stream, but the end result is so worth it! It's beautiful! It's this giant cliff that is a waterfall and you jump off the side and into the cold water, and in the "rapids" area of the waterfall (right before the water runs off the cliff), the rocks are somehow formed so it's the perfect slide! 

I only jumped off once (wasn't brave enough to do the slide) and then spent the rest of the time at the edge of the waterfall. There is another cool rock formation right at the end which is kind of a... lagoon type thing (but obviously it's not a lagoon) but it's like this nice little pond within the stream thanks to the rocks which surrounds it in a circle. We just sat at the edge and watch all of our friends jump off the cliff... So fun! This was my first time going and I can't believe it took me this long!

All in all, my Sunday was awesome... 

How was yours???

Outfit | Festival Season

Muscle Tee & Bag: Brandy Melville | Shorts & Bandeau: Forever21 | Headband: Claire's 

It saddens me to say that I am not partying at coachella nor any other sort of music festival, so I thought that if I broke out some earth tones and fringe it might keep my heart content... For now.

This is definitely a more street-friendly boho look (in my opinion) and probably isn't wild enough for something as giant as coachella but it did the trick for me.

For final touches I added this cute braided head band which I find quite demure and goes under the radar simply because it sort of blends in with my hair color but if you look closely it's kind of a nice surprise (in my opinion).

Do you adore festival season? Or more specifically do you love the festival fashion? (Personally, I think Vanessa Hudgens is the queen of coachella). Definitely let me know!

Outfit | Casual Sunday Commute

Dress: Brandy Melville | Flannel: Forever21 | Boots: Gifted | Bag: HOBO

I feel like every time I turn around it's Sunday. Seriously this year is going by so fast, it's crazy. Today was rather laid back and uneventful. I started off my morning by wasting 30 minutes of my day waiting for my drink at Starbucks followed by church and a last minute shift at work. 

Moving on, I really need to get some sort of black bag because  I don't dig the color brown and black together. I am eyeing a couple but I recently just acquired this HOBO one a few months ago and spent a wee bit more on it than I like to say so alas, I'm waiting a couple more months until I can justify buying myself another purse. The struggle is most definitely real. 

Also, I wanted to ask you if you recommended any good drugstore concealers. I usually get the liquid ones from sephora just because they are nice to mix to my own shade and decent price, but they discontinued it I think and I got the pan version but it made me break out. Anyway, I'm on the market for a new concealer. I'm thinking about the Maybelline Fit Me but I'm just wondering if you guys had any recommendations.

Happy Sunday, everyone.

Outfit | Sunshine Madness

Cropped Tee: Topshop | Denim: Pull & Bear | Shorts: Forever21 | Bag: HOBO International | Necklace: My Great-Grandmother's

I literally was preparing myself for rain thanks to Sunday but on Monday the sun came out and it's been nothing but sweltering heat since then. Weather on Kauai is frikin bi-polar. 

This is a lot... More skin than I usually show thanks to my short shorts and crop top (ignore my ugly stomach pooch) but I tried to level things out with my denim button-up. Hopefully that gave it some modesty. But seriously I haven't felt heat like this in a long time, I'm almost positive if I wore anything other than a cropped something rather I might actually overheat. 

I also want to apologize for the exposure in some of the photos, my camera picked up on the sunlight a wee bit too much and I couldn't seem to edit the photo to get it normal looking. 

What's the weather like where you live??
