What I Wore: HAWAII

Oh how I love Hawaii…

I’m so incredibly blessed that I just spent the last week on the island of Oahu. If you’ve been following me for a while, you know how much I love Hawaii! Getting to spend the week there with my best friend was an actual dream come true.

I have been getting an overwhelming amount of questions about the outfits I wore on this trip so that’s exactly what I’ll be sharing with you guys in today’s post.

Bikini Top | Skirt | Hat | Sandals | Purse

Started off our first day with a nice cup of coffee from a local coffee shop (I’ll be doing a full travel guide on everywhere we went on this trip, look out for that!). You can go just about anywhere with just a bikini on and I absolutely loved that!

Obviously we had to go right to the beach and start taking in some of that Hawaiian sunshine! We played out from 10am-noon before heading out on some more adventures!

Bikini Top | Sneakers | Shorts | Backpack | Scrunchie

LIFE HACK: buy cheap shoes at H&M before doing a muddy hike!!

I thought of this right before we head over to our waterfall hike and it really came in handy because our shoes were destroyed! Such a beautiful hike though and once we got to the waterfall, it started raining! So cool!

Final look of the day, our sunset booze cruise. This was a very spontaneous decision after our hike, the catamaran was right on the beach and we figured WHY NOT! One of my favorite nights of our trip & one of my favorite outfits as well.

WOW. Just WOW. This location was everything.

We were on a drive, parked the jeep and couldn’t believe how stunning the views were. Some of my favorite photos we’ve ever taken were from this spot!

Around the same area we pulled over and made another outfit change. If you watched the vlogs, you know there was some funny stuff going on with this outfit hah! This background seriously screams Jurassic Park or LOST, which I love!

One Piece (v similar) | Sunglasses

Something I always love about Hawaii is that you can be driving around the island & just HAVE to pull over because you spotted a pretty beach! Which is exactly what we did for these photos. It was super secluded and felt like we were the only ones there!

THE NORTH SHORE!

If we had more time in Hawaii, I definitely would’ve suggested staying longer here. There’s so much to do and see around the north shore but we tried our best to see as much as we could! We spent the afternoon in the cutest town called Haleiwa.

Haleiwa is a little town with the most picturesque spots; colorful walls, murals, surfboards everywhere… perfect spot for some insta pics!

If you know me at all, you know I’m a HUGE fan of the show LOST. I’ve seen it 4x through and it never gets old. We had to stop by the Other’s camp while around the North Shore. Seriously so cool that they still have one of the Dharma signs up!

Quick trip to the Royal Hawaiian! Their pool area & decor were just to die for that we needed to shoot here on our last full morning in Hawaii (sad). I wore this cute striped one piece and it fit in perfectly with the rest of the decor!

Top | Skort | Purse | Hat | Sandals

Even went for a quick outfit change while we were there! The entire resort was full of stunning backdrops that we just couldn’t help ourselves.

I was also totally obsessed with my skort (yes, it’s a skort!), it has a matching top which I’ll link here!

Bikini Top | Bikini Bottoms (linked similar, mine was sold out!)

Lanikai Beach is to die for. The clearest water & the softest sand. My bikini is super tropical and Hawaii themed so it only felt fitting that I brought it out on our final day!

Our final Hawaiian sunset… oh it was a good one. We hit up an infinity pool and found our spot at the edge to watch the sun go down. Seriously stunning and the perfect way to end our trip (still sad).


This was one of my favorite trips I’ve ever had the luxury of going on. Hope you enjoyed seeing all the content from this trip & I’ll be sharing my full travel guide for Oahu very soon! Look forward to it ;)

XO,
