A Love Letter to Rainy Days
On stormy days, gentle moments, and the art of slowing down Hawaii is supposed to face a storm this weekend. Heavy rain and wind expected until Monday, the whole state under a flood watch. Normally, that would mean slick roads, traffic that feels personal, and the low-level anxiety that comes with driving in heavy rain.… Continue reading

In Search of Sakura
We booked our next trip to Japan. I say that casually, like my heart didn’t immediately do that little flip it always does when Japan enters the conversation. Like I haven’t already started imagining quiet mornings, train windows, and the feeling of being exactly where I’m supposed to be. This time, though, we’re doing something… Continue reading

Apparently, I Give Alex Munday Energy
(And I’ll take that as a compliment.) Someone told me recently that I reminded them of Alex Munday. At first, I just smiled politely—because truthfully, I had forgotten who that was.

Kiss & Tell – A Fashion Must!
Pucker up ladies, one of Spring 2014’s biggest trend is making its mark. It is all about the lips! Smacked on the runway from designers such as (my favorite) Diane Von Furstenberg, Alice + Olivia, Saint Laurent, and Giles- the lip prints are all over dresses, skirts, blouses, accessories, and even shoes. Keep a look-out… Continue reading

Peacocks & Paper Cranes
These past three weeks of my free time I had spent creating beautiful accessories with special meaning and symbolism. Earrings and pens made from beautiful and vibrant Tibetan peacock feathers symbolizing beauty, grace, enlightenment, protection, renewal and good luck… Inspired by my lucky peacock decor that hangs in my living room, I wanted to share… Continue reading
