Snap back to reality. Back to New York City.

Back in the city. My trip home was pretty hectic. Since it was half business (well, maybe 75% business) that I was only able to go to the beach twice! :(

However, my friend Roger took me on an "booze cruise" which was pretty fun. You basically pay $35 to go sailing on this boat and it is all you can drink Mai Tais and beers. Pretty awesome, I gotta say.

Here are some photos:






I started to help my friend with her Vintage Etsy Store recently. I am helping her with her shoes and accessories (including jewelry) department. We have A LOT of cute things, and I am tempted to keep some of these items myself. Here are a few of my favorites:

This adorable vintage coral ruffle dress:




I also love this
70s gold accordian necklace. An awesome piece to wear on a girls night out:


These vintage YSL eye glasses. For a vintage pair of eyeglasses, they are in excellent condition:




Hurry! A lot of things are being sold, and they're all one-of-a-kind pieces. Go to candyLULU Vintage Shop!

I received this as a gift from my dear friend Terumi that runs kawaiifriendscafe:



I use it to put my little earrings and findings in it. She makes everything from scratch, isn't it adorable?

i am home.

I have made a longer version of the bar necklace. I would say it is more of a statement piece, and I am loving it very much. I wear it everyday :D When I get back to NYC, I'm planning on making this in gold.

The long bar necklace is currently on sale at etsy for $48. It is brushed sterling silver. Such an awesome layering piece to have.

So i am home in honolulu for about a week. the weather has been kind of strange, it would be sunny in the morning and then pour at night. Regardless, I've been getting some sun and some good FOOD!!!

Green tea shave ice at "YOUR KITCHEN". It comes with azuki beans, and inside there is green tea & azuki ice cream. topped with condensed milk. yum!:

Have a nice Thursday <3
