We Love Utility Jackets! [Collab]

The Daylee Journal   //   Auteur Ariel

I'm so so excited to be collaborating with Marsa from The Daylee Journal! This sweet lady left me a blog comment a few months ago and when we realized how much we had in common, we were insta-friends!

Things we have in common:

We are both from Hawaii
We are both Japanese
We are both short ;)
We both have ties in Seattle and Utah
We both love fashion (duh)

Sadly, right when we became friends Marsa had moved from Utah to Seattle so we never got a chance to hang out in person! However, since Connor is from Seattle, we visit a ton so we are planning on meeting up in the future!

Another thing to add to the things we have in common is our style. We both have a love for boots, fedoras, and scarves--just to name a few! We decided it was only appropriate to do a collaboration post on how we each styled a specific piece of clothing. So check out how we each styled our utility jackets--a fall favorite for both of us!

Scroll below to see my pics then head over to The Daylee Journal to show some love to Marsa! She seriously is the cutest human ever.

I love how the utility jacket looks with stripes and a pop of color from my scarf. Yellow is a fun color to brighten things up with, especially in the Fall when the color scheme is very neutral. By the way, can I just say how stoked I am to bust out my scarf collection? They've been cooped up for way too long.

Also, I'd like to announce that the winner of my Kensie Giveaway is Kaili! Congrats girl!!!

Stay Classy.


Sticky Rainbows Apparel

Monday, August 12, 2013


While Connor and I were visiting Hawaii this summer, we took a look around the local farmers market. There were lots of interesting booths to look at but there was one in particular that caught our eye. A local apparel company called Sticky Rainbows had a booth filled with colorful tank tops and t-shirts with screen prints of intricate and vintage-inspired designs.

I couldn't take my eyes off all the cool shirts they had! Brad, the owner of the company, was nice enough to let us see some of the designs up close and try a couple of them on!

We decided we couldn't leave without buying ourselves each a shirt so I picked an awesome Owl Head Dress Feathers Tank Top and Connor got a Makalawena Beach Hawaii Retro T-Shirt. We love them!
Not only do these shirts have awesome designs on it, but they are soft, quality Next Level Apparel. 

Check out how we each styled our shirts!

Jealous of our shirts?
Order one of your own online! Check out their site and shop!

Special thanks to Brad for allowing me to feature his company on my blog!
Oh, and kudos to my husband for being a patient and handsome model.


Stay Classy.

Floral + Denim

Tuesday, May 28, 2013


Like I mentioned in my other post, I love mixing & matching. In this instance, it's floral & denim (or "chambray" if you will).

I just recently purchased a floral headband & chambray vest from H&M that I am obsessed with! Here are a few ways I styled the two pieces to create different outfits.
