The moon setting at 6am yesterday. Peaceful moments chillin’ in the net hammocks by the lagoon.
Nu‘uuli waterfall
A few weeks back at Nu‘uuli waterfall with Gabby. She was there for a photo shoot, and I tagged along and assisted where I could. Then we wandered off and hung out the rest of the afternoon, did an impromptu photo shoot of our own, then hiked back, went home and got some reusable tupperware, and ordered Chinese takeout for dinner. I love days like these.
DIY Upcycled Tahiti-Inspired 2-Piece Outfit
My best friend was doing a closet clean out, and said I could keep whatever I wanted.
This bright red puletasi skirt, a hand-me-down from her mom, stuck out among the pile, and the color and print reminded me vividly of French Polynesia.
During that amazing trip last year, I actually really wanted to get a lavalava with pretty much this exact color/tropical print, but I couldn’t find it anywhere except on the beautiful dancers at the Heiva i Tahiti.
So I was stoked to get this skirt, and continue its life cycle in slow fashion.
It took me a while to figure out what I should do with it, but I loved the simplicity of what the skirt was before and decided to keep the structure of the skirt, only shortening it to use the rest of the fabric as a stretchy tube top.
It was a quick and easy upcycle project, but I loved the end result!
