hawaii 2010
i've lost track of the number of times i've visited hawaii and still it hasn't gotten old for me. i guess it's simply because i try to do something different each time i come here- even though i find myself as a tour guide with whoever i'm with- i really do enjoy the familiarity i have with this place and it just feels like a second home.
one neat thing i've always wanted to do was
paddle board. And as easy as it seems, it isn't so at first but once you get the hang of it, this activity is relaxing and loads of fun.
i did a lot of the usual things i did on my
previous hawaii vacation but one of my highlights was watching
bruno mars at the club, level 4. he's an amazing performer with a lot of talent. i instantly fell in love with his voice, stage personality, and was really happy i got to see him live.
And finally the tides were too high to jump off the cliff at Waimea Bay but I left the island with a nice golden tan after a good amount of Vitamin D. And I will be returning shortly again, I'm sure.

We went up to snowboard at
Squaw Valley, one of the largest ski areas in the United States and by far one of my favorite resorts next to
Northstar. I definitely recommend hitting the slopes on a weekday to avoid crowds and dine outside
The Arc at Gold Coast to enjoy breathtaking views of the mountains on a nice sunny day like we did. Aside the perfect weather, my sequin beanie topped off my outfit and made me easy to find in the snow!

i'm in love with my DITA aviator sunglasses. an all black attire has been my staple nowadays. thinking of changing up my hair to a shade darker. in need of a major tan. hawaii will definitely do the trick, that or a tanning bed, although i've never gone to one in my life so i'd be a little apprehensive. but i'm happy summer is almost here. maverick is getting so much funner and bigger. i've been spending a lot more time with my family which is always nice. i love my family, my friends, my life, i am a very lucky girl and i always count my blessings.
happy birthday bitch <3

it was joanna's birthday today and we celebrated her big day with a shabang at
sloane sf. this used to be the old
duplex and i was highly impressed with the remodel. aside fashion, i'm a big fan of interior design or bottom line, aesthetically pleasing visuals because i just adore pretty things. however, i was just a tad bit bothered by how the second photo looked similar to the movie
the shining of those twins down the hallway but other than that i really love this top since i like ruffles, which speaking of, the cheddar & sour cream flavor are my favorite.

i've gone living, so please excuse the shortage of blog posts since I've been on a mini vacay in San Francisco pampering myself on the hunt to find my favorite luxury spots to really enjoy the moment and smell the flowers without capturing it in a picture.. so the break was much needed, i thank you for your patience and going forward i will try my best to be more consistent. :)
