Wild Tropicana
I had made this skirt months ago, before I even knew I was going to Hawaii. I had been waiting for the perfect occasion to wear it and finally it had arrived! Hawaii is filled with the plumeria flowers, they are the ones that you wear in your hair, left side if your taken and right side if your single (what a tradition, right, talking about labeling...). I just like it because it looks so feminine.

Aloha from Hawaii
Now back in Amsterdam, I had a few wonderful days in Hawaii and LA, spending fun times with family. Walking the beach in front of the house we stayed at, in the mornings. Drinking Hawaii Kona coffee and having tropical fruits for breakfast. I wish I could go for one of those refreshing morning walks right now....

Tropical Fruits in Hawaii
At Pali lookout, halfway in the mountains, over a thousand feet above the coast line. Overlooking the northern side of the island of Oahu and the Koolau Cliffs. It was a cloudy and windy day, yet very tranquil and amazing sight.

Packing Tips; Summer Get-Away
I am well on my way and I cannot wait! 2 ten hour flights, 2 layovers and 12 timezones away.
If you happen to go on a little weekend get away, I leave you with some summer packing tips!
Aloha!
Staycation....
Okay, don't you sometime feel like you just need to go on a vacation?! I was at that point that, you want to feel new adventures, get out of your everyday routine and just relax!
But since most of us can't actually get away every weekend, here are some tips to have a wonderful staycation.
One thing I'm obsessed with lately is my Korres Shower Gel and Body Butter. They have absolutely wonderful scents, it actually reminds me of a tropical escape in a bottle (so wake up to that!). Korres is inspired by Greek Goddesses and was created by a Greek homeopathic pharmacist. Korres is natural and organic all plant and herb based. The ones I'm using now are Fig and Guava, but I cannot wait for them to finish to go get myself the coconut milk scent! In Amsterdam you can get them at Cosmania.
When Stayationing at home, you want to be comfortable and you may spoil yourself a bit! Everybody deserves it, I think....
Get yourself an exotic plant or flower arrangement (plants make me happy, Dork!), My guilty pleasure is the latest fashion magazine, put on something on the record player and flip through like there is no tomorrow. Sip on herb infused water, it's so refreshing, especially in the summer heath. I like mint & ginger, or basil, but you can also throw in some sliced fruit, yum!
Spoil yourself with an at home mani! Soack your hand in luke-warm water (add some lavender or rose petals to the water), srucb your hands, and give them a color coat that reminds you of vacation!
And Last, make yourself an awesome breakfast omelette. They serve omelets at the cool hotel breakfast bars;), so invent your own deliciousness. I like my omelette fluffy, topped with avocado and salsa rosada (one part ketchup, one part mayonnaise, a splash of whiskey and oregano spices)
Et Voila! Happy Staycation!
