Aloha kakahiaka! – Good morning, Lovecat! Ahh, Saturday!
Sharon of Eli*Sharon and I got a little dork-tastic in our summery garb when I visited Mau‘i last month. I rocked an outfit I’ve worn two or three times since this trip, because I was rather impressed with the mint and coral color blocking of the ensemble, and I totally suck at color blocking. And of course, I’m always in love with Shar’s incredible sense for color, as illustrated by her perfect floral maxi dress and denim combo.

And, because we were such dorks and felt silly posing in front of a fancy French restaurant, we ended up making fun of ourselves as bloggers, and giggling away as our husbands shot away. As a result, we ended up with a ton of silly photos and only two normal ones.
{ The only normal pose we got, I think? }
{ Close up details of the outfits… normal pose #2. }
{ Initial necklaces, boobs and smiles. }
Now, time to make fun of blogger poses we often do.
{ Typical Blogger Poses 101. Her: The look away pose. Me: The hand on hair, look down, legs crossed pose. }
{ The turn away, head down, hand in your hair pose, and I’m just laughing and awkward. }
{ Action shot of us laughing because we couldn’t stop talking and be serious for one second. }
{ Shar forcing herself to stay still while I snort and giggle. }
{ Endless giggles. }
{ Hand and arm parties. }
{ Color blocking and matching outfits. }

Me: Zara coral pleated maxi skirt. (SIMILAR 1, SIMILAR 2. >J. Crew Vintage V neck T in mint. Target braided belt. Ariel Gordon gold Initial necklace (bday present from BFF Lily). Kate Spade Gold “Ooh La La” necklace (Sold out – SIMILAR). Gorjana Griffin leather color block clutch, won. (SIMILAR) Marc Jacobs heart locket watch (discontinued), (SIMILAR, same line). CC Skye gold screw bangle. CC Skye gold mini spike bangle.
Sharon: Floral Maxi Dress. Cropped denim jacket. Studded bowler bag. Silver crystal initial necklace. Heart ring. (All items similar to originals.)
Then her husband, Eli, stole my scarf. My husband and his mum (who came with us to Maui) got tired of watching us and waited for our fashion dorkery to end in the car. I wonder how many people passed us, wondering “what the heck?” #Dontcaretossmyhair

Although we ran into each other earlier in the day wearing completely different outfits, all of us ended up doing costume changes and showed up to dinner in Lahaina town with somehow matching ensembles. Me in mint and coral color block and a maxi skirt and her wearing floral maxi with warm tones that matched my skirt! Awww, bestie mind meld.
{ Ran into them earlier in the day at Whole Foods… Cutest couple… fiercest couple eva! }
I love my bestie.

If you’re ever wondering what hanging out with Sharon and me is like, just refer back to this post. Giggles, outfit shots, great food and lots of horsing around. We’re fun. TRUST.
Ok. It’s, like, 3:30AM and I need to rest up for my hike. Hope your weekend is BLISSFUL, FULL OF ADVENTURE, or BOTH.
Rock on, Lover!
Me ke aloha ~ With love + aloha,
