Throwback Thursday: Off the Shoulder
Tricky Trend: Cold Shoulder by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring an off shoulder sweater Recently Polyvore had a contest (if you didn’t already know, I love the style contests on there) called “Tricky Trend: Cold Shoulder”. Off the shoulder or one shoulder looks can be tricky. You want to make sure the whole look goes together well. I don’t personally own any completely off the shoulder tops (meaning off both shoulders), but I have one or two loose sweaters that go off one shoulder. It’s such a fun look and so casual chic. I’d love to own more but it’s not exactly something I can get a lot of versatility from since it’s not…

Throwback Thursday: Pearl Harbor
Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day is this Sunday, December 7th. I thought I’d do a throwback Thursday post this week and share a few pictures from when I went to the Pearl Harbor Memorial this past August. This photo is from the boat ride from the shore to the USS Arizona Memorial. They let only a certain amount of people onto the Memorial at a time and you have a certain amount of time before you have to get back onto the boat. It’s basically 1 group (boat full) at a time. It’s a pretty surreal experience to be there and see everything. This memorial is built where the…

Throwback Thursday: Diamond Head
Last month when I was in Hawaii, I went to Diamond Head Crater. Diamond Head is visible from much of Waikiki Beach and is an iconic site. It’s a state park and there is a trail that you can walk/hike up one of the sides of the crater. In case you don’t know, Diamond Head is a crater formed from a volcanic eruption 300,000 years ago. The trail is mostly paved because there are so many visitors. When I say paved, I mean packed dirt to form a trail. The trail was only 0.7 miles so it was by no means a long hike, but parts of it were steep because…

Throwback Thursday: Romeo + Juliet
I can’t believe that Romeo + Juliet came out in theaters 18 years ago. I hadn’t seen this movie in a long time until this week. My 9th graders finished reading the play last week and I told them we could watch the movie this week (our last week of school). I gave the students the option of watching this Leonardo DiCaprio version or the Zeffirelli version from 1968. Pretty much all the girls wanted to see Leo and couldn’t stop talking about how cute he is. I think it’s so funny to think about how these 14-15 year old girls think Leonardo DiCaprio is so cute and they weren’t…
