^^SWIMSUIT: Nanette Lepore; not available but love this one and this one
^^Some looks from the runway at Honolulu Fashion Week
^^He passed out under the cabana and I have an ongoing urge to take a photo any time he sleeps - literally I have ten million! I love when his upper lip does this <3
^^I love watching his face when a wave comes and then when it leaves and buries his feet in the sand, its like he is so fascinated by it!
^^Island Vintage Coffee had the best breakfasts!!
^^A's fuzzy hair blowing in the wind cracks me up
^^Oh my goooodnesss this shaved ice was the beez neez!!!!
WATERMELON TANK: Nasty Gal; not available but love this watermelon tank and these watermelon shorts // SUNGLASSES: Ray Ban (on sale!!)^^The highlight of the trip was watching him play in the water - honestly life does not get better than that.
^^Tried pho for the first time and it was soo good
^^Not going to lie, sometimes I am jealous of their relationship! They are seriously best buds, its the cutest!!
^^After seeing the waves on the North Shore I asked him kindly to please never surf!! Haha! Freaking SCARY!
^^One of the few in focus pictures we managed to get from a stranger taking our photo
^^This dress is unfortunately sold out but it is still in stores at the Honolulu Nordstrom so you can call them and they will ship it for free. It is made by Topshop.
^^Seriously one of the best waffles ever! Kiddin me with the fruit to waffle ratio?! It was at Tilia
^^That smile just kills me. His sweater is Purl Lamb, his shorts are Gap (on sale), and his moccs are Freshly Picked

We got the amazing opportunity to go to Honolulu with Honolulu Magazine for the first ever Honolulu Fashion Week and it was so much fun to be a part of. It is absolutely crazy to me that it was their first year doing it because everything was SO well put together and produced beautifully. The lighting, music, hair, make up, everything felt just like a NYFW show but with a tropical touch. I loved getting to see some of the local designer's work as well as being introduced to some new and amazing designers. I love being around talented people, it is so so inspiring.
There was something extra special about this trip and I am not sure if it was just because the Honolulu Magazine team was SO amazing and gracious or just because Honolulu is absolutely amazing, but this trip just felt really special for us. I felt super close to my boys as cheesy as that sounds! I even turned down a free spa day because I didn't want to be away from them. We just had such a fun time together and I never wanted it to end. We got to stay at the Royal Hawaiian and I am absolutely obsessed with how beautiful of a resort it is!! They call it the pink palace because everything is pink!! Its literally a girls dream. Everything about the resort was just so relaxing and amazing, it is right on the beach so we spent most of our days just out on the beach or at the cabana by the pool with a view of the beach :) we are already counting down the day until we can go back.
Thank you so much Honolulu Magazine, Royal Hawaiian, and Hawaiian Airlines for a beyond amazing trip!

These pics are amazing!
Love all the pics! And YAY for a visit to Nordstrom! I did a lot of vacationing in Hawaii while living in Japan and seriously every time I went I was on a mission to get to Nordstrom, Nordstrom Rack and Target. And then we finally get to move to America again and I move to Alabama… aaannnnddd there is no Nordstrom : / How is this possible?
Sounds like such an amazing opportunity! I love all of your photos! You look stunning!
