Something of comfort to wear on a slightly chilly day here.  It was nice and breezy and a little overcast when I woke up

I'm thrilled that the weather here is turning nice and windy in the mornings and evenings.  Although it can still get pretty hot during the day, usually I'm somewhere that's air conditioned, so I can still live comfortably in this sweater and socks.  The sweater is very light and wooly, and was given to me by my brothers girlfriend from their trip to Japan before this Thanksgiving.  The socks are almost too cute to talk about-- I love socks so much that I ask for them every Christmas, even though almost no one gives them to me because socks have accumulated a rather bad rep as presents during the holidays.  :'(

Also, I'm so sad there isn't an H&M in Hawaii yet.  We finally got Forever 21, Victoria's Secret and Nordstrom at Ala Moana within the last couple of years, and now we need a H&M and Urban Outfitters to complete the circle.

Lately I've been obsessed with monotone pieces put together to create a suit, especially if they're of the silk variety.  This one is not made of silk or any semi-precious fabric, but I just got a pair of navy silk trousers to go with a Carole Little silk top that I will be posting about as soon as I decide on the shoes to incorporate into the outfit.  Color-blocking is fun too, but the monochromatic persuasion really reminds me of old photos of those stylish women of the 70's and 80's.

I love the idea of galaxy painted..... EVERYTHING.  But sometimes it's hard to find specific things that you want that aren't overpriced just because they are trending.  My friend took the time and put in the effort to paint these shoes for me, and I love them!  Next on my list:

• galaxy printed blanket
• galaxy painted nails (gotta go to that site that has instructions again!)
• galaxy printed t-shirt dress.
• galaxy printed silk trousers like these: (I posted this photo earlier when I was professing my undying love for Nicholas Kirkwood shoes.
