hide and unseek.

i totally forgot about these shoes.
i bought them a little while ago and had to,
uh...hide them from scrutizining eyes.
so i shoved the bag in the depths of my laundry basket,
which really just holds stuff, not dirty laundry.
guess out of sight, out of mind, because i truly forgot about them until i was looking for a shirt that might have
actually been in said laundry basket.

had a delicious lunch today consisting of laksa, new york cheesecake, and sparkling lemonade.
this link gives you a general description of laksa, but every restaurant has a slightly different version.
wish i took a picture, but we were too hungry!

happy aloha friday, all!

cheesecake...my favorite
(shoes, nordstrom; carrie cargo pant, available at oomph; top, f21)

  22. Looove those wedges, they're really pretty. I hate when I hide things and forget about them. I usually end up destroying my whole house in order to find it again. I really like the way you did your hair too!
    Sounds like a verrry tasty lunch

  23. the laksa sounds delicious...I'm wondering about the likelihood of finding it in the middle of the USA. The shoes are too nice to forget! And I like the braid!

  24. Fantastic casual-chic outfit. It is a very fetching look on you (one I'm inspired to "try on" when Summer rolls around)!

    Those shoes are marvellous. I adore wedge heels, and those look particularly comfortable AND stylish (I hope they really are as comfortable as they look...shoe nirvana!) :-)

    ReplyDelete
  25. Those shoes are amazing. They look really comfortable, and they seem to go with quite a few outfits. It's amazing when you can find a versatile pair of shoes like that. Plus, wedges are usually more comfortable.
    P.S. SO JEALOUS of those hot cargo pants. I am still looking for my perfect pair.

  31. Very cute shoes. So who were you hiding them from!? Is your daughter same size as you? The day I started wearing my mom's size she had to guard all her shoes!
    That 'laksa' looks yummy.
    I love the big necklace over that top. And your hair braid is so cool. I really wish I was more crafty with braiding.

  57. Ahhahahahaha!! I do the same EXACT thing! What's worse is when the BF finds my hiding spot and I'm like: 'Oh, yeah, forgot about those' and then have to give him a sheepish grin. Great bottom of the laundry basket find. Mine is usually under my bed, in my trunk, conelled in winter coats etc.!

    I've never had Laksa before. Actually, I've never even heard of it before. It looks absolutely delicious though! And spicy! Oh man.... Mouth watering alert!
