Kahumana Retreat Oahu

My experience at Kahumana Farm, a true rustic retreat. The Retreats grounds were very quiet and welcoming. I found myself staying in a big open house each room a private board. Other occupants I was lucky enough to encounter were Prince Henry of Samoa and a very laid back group of wwoofers. On this site there is an organic farm that feeds directly into the Cafe. Meals made with fresh ingredients are served here daily. There is also a Chapel and a stage with beautiful scenic views. Visit this place for purposes of clearing your mind, feeding your soul and enjoying nature. Kahuman Farm also serves many other great purposes and is a wonderful entity to support. Kahumana

Casual Chic

A chic shoot from last September to inspire my day. Can it be fall already, I admire all of the new trends that I have come across lately. If anyone loves fashion it's me. The layers to fall fashion are like never ending buds of happiness waiting to bloom. Can you picture it. Thigh high boots, skirts, scarfs, sweaters, brisk nights cool days. Epic. My only wish is that my friends will be safe this season, successful and styled to perfection.

Happy Labor Day

I'm spending my holiday here Three Sisters springs in central Florida.

Accomplishing Natural Beauty

When rocking the natural look having healthy skin and Healthy hair is a good place to start. My favorite products are straight out of the kitchen. I was included in a conversation with a woman based in Cuba she advised that any product with oil as a base works wonders on natural hair. I like Extra Virgin Olive oil because It keeps my naturally curly hair perfectly moisturized. When using olive oil Leave in for thirty minutes prior to washing and also put on your ends occasionally to prevent split ends. Coconut oil is also a great product conducive to beauty. It can be used on skin and hair. The goal is to glow from within therefore naturally enhancing your beauty. Wearing heavy makeup is such a task but this look can also be accomplished with makeup as well.

Def Jam Brunch

Very Happy I got to Spend the day with my dad cruisn around L.A. and in this fun car, It's called a sling shot. It's Grammy week so I dragged him out to a few parties. Last stop on my event list is the Def Jam Brunch. Chopped it up with great people doing great things in various realms of entertainment. Sat on top of the world with Jodie Blum. The Brunch she threw for Def Jam was the best of the season. We all had such a great time. She does that!
