In a Land Called Hanalei

Hi Strangers.  It's been awhile, and I've honestly just been soaking up the sun and sand without wanting to even open my laptop or camera!  I am currently staying in the little town of Hanalei on the island of Kauai, one of my favorite places ever.  We rented a little cottage on the creek in easy walking distance to the beach, town, and some awesome food trucks.  I would camp out here for a few months and avoid the Colorado winter altogether if it was at all possible!

Outfit Details:
Dress - thrifted (gifted to my mom for Christmas, and re-borrowed back!)
Purse - Vintage
Sunglasses - Rome street vendor.

These were taken on the way out to dinner last night in our streamside backyard at twilight.  I have been feeling really uninspired by outfits, as it usually involves lots of sun tan lotion, very little makeup, and maybe a sweaty beac cover up.  I am going to try to document a few more before I leave though, as I know I will regret not taking advantage of the warm weather, later sunsets, and beautiful scenery when I'm back in Colorado!
Anyway, I have honestly been missing you guys and the inspiration of the blogging community, so I am excited to get back into swing of things next week after I'm home.  But for now, I'm off to finish this Mai Tai ;)

  2. Your hair looks so great in that lighter shade of blonde! Also, jealous of your holiday. I just got back from a trip to the UK, Serbia and Hungary and while it was amazing, I really wish I was somewhere warm! Winter is getting me down.

  9. Your trip looked so amazing from the pics- how great that you get to go to Hawaii each year, it probably really helps with getting through the Colorado winter. I love this dress, such a perfect print for a tropical trip. Your mom has really good taste!
