Diamond feast at Tiffany's

Photography by Lyle Amine

Ultra late post from a glitzy night in the Waikiki Tiffany & Co. store. Needless to say, I threw on an outfit Daisy Buchanan would approve of and sped down town for the event. Once there, I zipped up the elevator, which led me to the most surprising scene of glamor. Folks in their suits and flapper dresses sashayed . I shared an intimate viewing party with some others as we gawked, awed, and ouuued at "The Great Gatsby" inspired gems. There were diamonds, cakes, champagne, and good company, nothing more was needed. Having seen Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby", I can say that the Jazz Age definitely shined through in the form of diamonds and precious gems. Here's a look at the vision of Tiffany & Co.

Affordable fashion at Old Navy Ala Moana

Last month I had the wonderful luck of being invited to attend an Old Navy in-store styling event. Fashion writer and blogger Amanda Stevens of Substance in Style informed me that she would be styling customers throughout the night and so naturally, I had to be there! I'm very particular about what I wear so I was a bit nervous for my image to be taken into the wrong hands. I had no reason to be because local stylist, Geremy Campos, knew just the pieces to put me in! Styled in a military jacket, grey skinny jeans, a faux leather tote and surprisingly, a striped men's shirt, they were the right components for a chic tomboy look that was right up my alley.

In addition to seeing some new arrivals that just came into Old Navy, we were treated with a table of sweets, coupons to go shopping, and promotions from Bath and Body Works. Although I didn't come away with any new pieces, the store manager was kind enough to exuberantly stash my purse full of Reeses peanut butter cups and Kit Kats. Here's to a affordable night of fashion and sugar highs!
