Just got my first gilt groupe purchase! A super cute pair of Boutique9 oxfords. I love them!!! Oxfords are officially my crazy new obsession. I'm into that Lauren Hutton, Diane Keaton, Katherine Hepburn, bitch-i-can-do-anything look. But more importantly, they can pull off literally any type of men-inspired piece with a feminine attitude. That's my girl.

Trying to nab these Marais oxfords next. I actually love all their shoes, but their oxfords are by far their most classic pieces. Their whole concept really just speaks to my American pride (*Parisians are snickering right now*). I'm sure my closet can use a little patriotism, haha. Check out their shoes and site out here.

Off to join the working class society now.... grumble grumble.

A couple things: I got a kickass new phone (nexus one) and I LOVE it. I've always been stuck with prehistoric phones my whole life and I now realize the power of unlimited texting and web-browsing. It's dangerous.

And this is sort of my first street style post. Some girls and I went out to First Fridays in downtown Honolulu, which is when they open up all the art galleries at night and all of main downtown turns into a zoo of artsy farts (like me) and club-goers.

I got to meet this girl in a great pair of harem pants which looked amazing with all that hair, those sandals, and killer accent. Made some new friends, Kela and Sean, who by the way was wearing a kick ass shiny blazer with puff sleeves (yay for puff sleeves)! I wore my favorite altered-vintage dress with my vintage snake belt and my peruvian gold cuff. In the end, it's all about the shoulders, baby.
