May 2015 Outtakes

Don't pop our bubble! The wheels of 'Mani Mondays' are lacquered in periwinkle and blue skies and turning at an incredible rate. We've been fine tuning and actively making a footprint when sharing on hair, makeup, and threads.

And while beach life has been relaxing, life on a yacht a thrill, and dancing under neon lights is necessary, we are still curiously seeking what's in store for this fashion code.

Won't you come along for the journey?

Going Postal



I stopped at the post office today to grab a change of address form, and shortly after I get several pictures from my husband of Waikiki beach. I'm freaking out over here! Why does it feel worse than waiting for Christmas?! TGIF!!

Falling Into Place



Hi lovelies! I'm excited to give you the 411 on my move status! My husband landed in Oahu on Tuesday night and has quickly settled in. He got our girls registered for school yesterday and found us a place to live. We will only have to walk 10 minutes to be in downtown Honolulu. Way to go husband, huh?! Just over there taking care of business!

Thank you to my family and friends who have been praying for me! This has been such a smooth transition, and everything is really falling into place. Can't wait to start posting when I get there!

The Cookout


Yesterday's cookout was a lot of fun. I feel like I'm on repeat when I say that I'm so blessed by the connections I've made at my church. Many of my friends either served, are serving, or know someone who has served in the military, so it was quite special to enjoy each others' company in a way that was respectful to all who sacrificed for our freedom.

If you've ever put on a uniform, or watched a loved one walk out the door in one, thank you.


As you can see, my afternoon attire was kept ultra simple. Proudly wrapped my hair in our grand ol' flag, applied a smooth like butter lipstick, shades, and was on my way. I appreciated how comfortable this laid-back look was––perfect for a cookout!

Enjoy your day!

Mani Monday | Neon Glow



Happy Memorial Day everyone! I hope that you can all take a moment to remember the reason we celebrate this day, and that you feel blessed with the company of loved ones. For me, I'm soaking up spending one last day with my family all together before my husband leaves tomorrow for Hawaii. It will be 3 weeks until we join him in our new home, so quality time counts!

Today's mani is extra fun because it glows! This weekend we went thunder bowling. In case you've never done that or are not sure what it is, it's a late night bowling session where they turn off the regular lights, and turn black lights on. All the pins and bowling balls glow and there's upbeat music to set the mood. My little girls and I thought it would be the best choice to make sure that we wore things that would glow, including our polish. We may not have made a strike each time, but our manis certainly did! What do you think?

Color Graphics Lacquer



Last week I changed my blonde hair to periwinkle. Iv'e simply adored it, but one thing about any fashion color put over blonde hair, is it tends to fade pretty quickly. 

Luckily for me, Matrix just came out with new lacquers, one being Light Indigo. I agreed to be my mom's guinea pig to test the new shade out. I think it turned out beautifully, and the good news about it being a little darker is, even if it does fade, it should be just about the perfect hue for me! Like it?
