Fly like a G6

To read this post properly, you should listen to the song "Like a G6" from my previous post and scroll through the these pic. I took a bunch of pics on my blackberry that are worthy of sharing...my fave is this first one of little Coops riding E.T. style on our flight home to NYC. The sweetest flight attendant let us have him on the seat, but gave us a blanket to hide him just in case her boss walked by. He acted like he was totally in on his secret mission!
Of course, I couldn't go to California without hitting up In-N-Out...Cheeseburger animal style.


San Souci Beach in Hawaii


Matsumoto Shave Ice...totes not as good as Waiola, but presentation is pretty! lol


My fave day in Hawaii


My neon orange volcom hat is a necessity...obvi


Funniest thing...this dog was just roaming the beach visiting the different people...and as soon as I opened up my sandwich he darted straight for me and took a seat. I saved a piece of chicken from my sandwich which I gave to him at the end, and as soon as he took the bite he bounced. LOL...he totally worked me! ha


Papaya...my trip is never complete without eating one at my grandparents house. And, according to my Grandma, you're supposed to eat the edges of the papaya first because it's the sweetest part.


My Costco trip in Hawaii, local beer, kimchi, Hurricane popcorn, mochi & seaweed salad.


Hilarious


View from the top of the dormant volcano, Diamond Head.


Tofu Mousse...wha? I was amazed it was all whipped and tasted like cream cheese...until I read the ingredients and there is cream cheese in it! boo




The real deal...Waiola Shave Ice


Another San Souci beach sunset.


Preparty Hawaiian style


Back in Cali, Cooper running through the grass...which normally you wouldn't think is a big deal...but he's a city dog...so he's not used to it! haha


Ahmed kickin it with my 18 year old childhood dog Sammy by my mom's house.

Hawaii Theme Song

Hi peeps! So I'm back from my much needed vacay in Hawaii and California! And I'll def be catching up on posts because obvi I was majorly MIA. Sorry to do that so unannounced, but my life was getting a little heavy. But anywho...anyone that goes to Hawaii and listens to the radio out there knows that they repeat the same songs over and over...maybe like twice in an hour...no joke! So this years theme song to my Hawaii trip was "Like a G6" by Far East Movement...it's catchy hook was in my head all day everyday out there. Enjoy...xo, B

Tacombi

Hit up the Tacombi VW Bus at Fonda Nolita tonight for an after dinner taco. I had walked by this new spot the other morning, which as of last week was only serving coffee and breakfast tacos. One of these days I do want to make it for breakfast, because the tacos were delish. I split the chicken and steak tacos with my brother, and Ahmed had the fish which were served out of the VW Bus...they were well seasoned, the tortilla a little soggy (seemed like it had been out too long, but it was midnight and they're new...so I couldn't judge too much). And to top it off, they had a home made hot sauce that had enough kick to surprise my bro and me...which is a semi big deal, lol. My bro started speaking to one of the guys working there, who is from a town close to where my fam is in Mexico...and he was saying that they will be brewing four types of beer soon...once they get their liquor license of course.

The best part about this place is it's chill environment...reminds me of the Mexi places in Cali...metal tables and chairs set up in an open space on Elizabeth St. Once they have beer, this will def be a spot to hang out at. Great new find...xo, B


Just thought this was cute!

Fendi Fun at Milan Fashion Week

A much overdue post from Milan Fashion Week...I had these Fendi photos saved in my posts for a week now...and loved every look that Karl sent down the runway. The 70s gem colored theme continued throughout Milan from New York. Such rich looks with polished details...I loved all the accessories and sunglasses and especially the stacked jewelry added to the wrists of all these leggy models. Fendi fun...love love loves...xo, B

Yummy!
