Urban Outfitters Waikiki & My New Turntable

Posted on January 14, 2015 by tairaxo

I’ve wanted a turntable for so long now. I’ve been searching online for one that has that suitcase vintage look and finally found one when shopping at Urban Outfitters. It plays records as well as connects to an MP3 player which is perfect. I can’t wait to find the perfect spot for it at home.

^^ Isn’t it adorbs?^^

^^This is the one I originally wanted. I just couldn’t see paying $250 for it ^^

… Everywhere you go. Don’t you love that song? I was singing it in my head today as I walked around Waikiki- Christmas decorations are up everywhere. The Galleria was so pretty I just had to take some photos and share them. Enjoy!

O Christmas Tree

Posted on November 18, 2014 by tairaxo

I set up my Christmas tree!!! I know it’s a little early, but I just couldn’t wait. The holiday bug got me and I am really feeling the spirit. So I went into the storage grabbed the tree (yes our tree is fake), my favorite ornaments (I chose to do the same ornaments as last year) and called in the kids to join in the decorating. I think it turned out beautiful.

Glow in the dark themed party

Posted on September 29, 2014 by tairaxo

This weekend we celebrated my niece Kyla’s birthday. Her theme was “Glow in the dark dance party”. It turned out amazing. The kids had such a blast- everything glowing, karaoke and dancing! Here are some pictures.

^^I found that Kylas at that age where shopping is not easy for a birthday. Too old for dolls too young for makeup. I decorated a mason jar and added some goodies and an Icing gift card.^^

^^Even I got into the fun. Matching glow mask with my daughter^^

^^Love the glow sticks as the cupcake toppers. We had to make sure the little ones didn’t eat them^^

^^ My daughter left the party with lots of glow accessories^^

^^ Kyla won this game. Literally put the whole donut in her mouth^^

INSPIRATION FOR MY BEDROOM MAKEOVER

Posted on July 3, 2014 by tairaxo

I love re-decorating my bedroom, its something that I look forward to doing about once a year. This time around I really want to make it a relaxing environment for me. There is so much that goes on during the day- with work, having kids and just everyday issues- that when it’s finally time to go to bed I love the ambiance to be soothing and relaxing. I’m going with a neutral palette with just a pop of green for some color while incorporating some black to give it that romantic feel. I found that perfect MAC eye-shadow palette that had the exact colors that I want.

^^ Here is the MAC Palette of eye-shadow colors that are the exact match for my color scheme ^^

^^Here are some bedroom inspirations to help with my décor^^

These are some of the things that I really want to include in my makeover. I am obsessed with pretty lighting and would like to have a chandelier with jewels to reflect light. I’ve also always wanted a fireplace, but here in Hawaii there’s really no purpose for one. However I saw these cool faux fireplaces where candles are substituted, I think its such a great idea and want one. This gave me the idea to have a little sitting area with a nice comfortable chair and wine cart where I’ll be able to have a glass of wine by candle light. Just writing this is making me so excited!!!! I hope to have everything done in the next couple of week. I can’t wait to show you all!
