When hunting for vintage jewels & clothing,
I always look forward to the last Thursdays of every month.
I find endless steals & deals on vintage treasures
every time I shop at Art & Flea.


Gorgeous model, Casey Evans, will be there
selling & applying feather extensions this Thursday.


I always love stopping by vintage collector, Nicole Franco's booth.
I scored a gorgeous vintage bracelet from her last month.

Last month I scored this
1960's black vintage butterfly necklace
I'm wearing below for only $10!
It goes with just about everything in my wardrobe.


Only a few more days to go!
Lovely

Feelin FRINGY...


I just love fringe!
From fringe dresses, to fringe skirts, to fringe boots...
Wearing things that move with your body
& show off a little skin is always sexy,
especially while out at a fancy party or out dancing.

I found this designer, Angie Johnson,
who sells her line, norwegianwood, on etsy.com
Johnson uses a mixture of
bold & bright vintage & new fabrics,
including FRINGE,
that she finds in shops throughout
the city of Montreal & New York
to design jewelry & clothes.
Below are a few of my top fringe picks from

Feeling extra fringy?

Behind the Scenes - Country Bumpkin Photo shoot


A few weeks ago,
a dear friend of mine, Jenna Rae,
called me up and asked me to be a part
of a project that she has been working on with
a photographer who lives in Waialua.
They needed a stylist for a
fun, flirty, girly, "country bumpkin" themed photo shoot.
Here are some behind the scenes pics & videos
from this weekend.
Enjoy!


Hair, Make Up, & Photography ~ Jessica King
click here to check out Jessica's website.


Stylist ~ Yours truly


Wardrobe ~ Hurley, Acid Dolls,
& a lil love from our personal closets



Model ~ Miss Jenna Rae
Jenna's holding Jessica's daughter.
Isn't she just a doll?!
She was all smiles during the entire shoot.
Yes, there was a baby on set.
I lve babies!


Jessica's hubby was just way too cute!
Fresh out of surgery for a hip replacement
and still so down to support & help assist his wifey.
It was a family affair...
"A"mazing!

We shot at an old abandoned house over in Waialua.
I love sets with a lot of character.
This was so perfect for "Country Bumpkin."





The shoot was a success!
And Jenna & I were ready for a night out
to dance the night away at 39hotel for Shake & Pop.

SEXY + ORGANIZED CLOSET = "I can't wait to wear that & that!"

Spring is here & it's time for a
fabulous Spring cleaning!
And I know just the perfect place to start.
It's a place that has the potential to make you
feel fabulous & fresh every morning, day, & night...


Your CLOSET!!!


Here are some pics I found online of
Amazing celebrity dream closets for some inspiration
& to help get you in the mood.
Hope you enjoy them just as much as I do!


I always encourage my friends & clients to
organize & decorate their closet
as if it were their own boutique.
It should represent your personality & style.
Make sure to get rid of anything horrible &
keep everything fabulous!


Focus on the SEXY!
The sexier your closet looks,
the more likely you will want to wear something in it.
It also helps when your in a mad rush
or for those last minute dates.


SEXY + ORGANIZED CLOSET = "I can't wait to wear that & that & that!"


The closet below is my personal favorite!
I love lots of color, fresh flowers, chandeliers & mirrors.
It's simple, feminine, fresh, & girly.
Totally Perfect!


Ok sooooooo....
I think I'm gonna get up now & update my closet's sex appeal.


Wishing you the best of luck!
And if you feel like sharing
pics of your closet's new fresh look,
I'd love to see pics.
