luau

Physically I've left Hawaii but mentally I'm still there, and sorting through my pictures is not helping me to reinsert myself into the real world any quicker :-/ On this particular day I went to a luau and it was such a treat...unlimited food and island drinks, men with no shirts or shortage of muscles and beautiful women with hips that would make Shakira blush :) SO.MUCH.FUN!
When I ran across this dress, I immediately knew I wanted to wear it to the luau. With the midsection cutout detail, it's not something I would wear day to day, but for 20 bucks, I figured why not. And I'm completely obsessed with this 60's footwear trend (just purchased THESE on super sale). The chunky semi-low heel was perfect for strolling the island.

wearing: forever 21 dress (PURCHASE), CALVIN KLEIN LANETTE SANDALS
worn to: a luau...ENJOY THE VIDEO!

    Man. That style is boss and perfect for Hawaii. I don't think I've ever seen you wear that particular print before. These pics belong somewhere in a magazine.
