Paris


I went to Luxembourg for work and stopped through Paris over the weekend. After a busy week, little sleep and an early flight, I was ready for some site seeing. I found a fabulous black scarf in Luxembourg that will go with a lot. The purple suede shoes are fun and typically comfortable, but were not for all the walking I did.


My hotel room wasn't yet, so I walked around with my big weekend bag until I got in the room. (I carry it on planes because they never count it as a suitcase, and I will carry it on the plane for an extra carry on. Then I downsize when I land. ;-)
After my room was ready, I got ready and met my coworker for some shopping. We went to Champs-Élysées Avenue in Paris with all of the shops. I loved the cafes and and little shops. I did a lot of shopping, but overall the style left me a bit flat. Seemed like there were more club type clothes or brands I could get here in Seattle for a cheaper price. The one thing that everyone had in Europe it seemed (in both Luxembourg and Paris that week) was a leopard print scarf. I counted at least 11 different kinds. I'm glad I packed mine! It's always easy to dress up a simple t-shirt or cami when traveling and takes up little room in the suitcase.

I got to check out the Louis Vuitton!

Maui Vacation

We went to Maui for a family vacation before school starts for the kids. This was our fourth trip to Hawaii in 2 years and 2nd trip to Maui. I'm obsessed at this point. There is something about Hawaii that is good for my soul - I relax and enjoy myself. I love the blue ocean water and the peacefulness that Hawaii has to offer.

We stayed at The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach this time. We we went in February, we were in The Outrigger Ainu Nalu in Lahaina town. I traded the secluded quiet place for next to shopping and beachfront, which I also like. :) I would recommend either location, depending on what you are looking for.

I packed up all of my sundresses. I can live in sundresses at the beach.

The J.Crew Impressionist Skirt

I am kind of obsessed with my J.Crew Impressionist Skirt and my metallic Coach Sydney bag - my wonderful birthday present from this month from Brian. I paired the skirt up with the fuschia tiered top and a the white J.Crew Nolita jean jacket - another one of my favorites this summer. The skirt has so many options, I love it!
