winter in hawaii plus sized outfit 2

Every year I get asked what Winter is like here in  Hawaii… honestly, we don’t truly experience a change in seasons so it’s very different from other parts of the World.  One thing that stands out here is that we see Whales in our oceans this time of year and of course, it is a little on the chilly side (like today – we had mid 70 Degree weather most of the day which made it a nice cool and comfortable day at home), and of course – Hawaii is known for their Winter swells… and this is the time all the huge Surf Competitions are held since our waves can reach anywhere from 25 – 35 feet (in some cases much higher).  But for the most part – it is sunny sunny sunny and we don’t get snow here except for the highest mountain slopes (and even then, it’s a several hours drive and barely any snow to play).

This outfit is something that can easily be worn without worry of being too warm.  Besides, I love anything that is crochet or like wise and this poncho is awesome.

For my makeup I am using a simply winged liner (Jesse’s Girl Waterproof eye liner pen) and Elizabeth Mott’s It’s So big Mascara.  On my lips I’m rocking out one of my favorite lipsticks from Lipstick Queen – Black Tie, which is a gorgeous red.

My hope was to style this poncho several different ways so that it could be paired with different things, but due to the Holidays and Christmas days away, I didn’t have the chance to.  I will certainly take photos and post here on my blog when I’m able to style this poncho differently, my favorite way being jeans.

Stay tuned for that and don’t forget to check out the video! 😉040 copy

    • thank you 🙂 The blue or the LOVE bracelet? I made the blue with gorgeous gemstone beads… so pretty and light reflecting. I had no idea you have traveled here. So awesome!

  1. I think of Hawaii and sandals, never boots. Those are great for anywhere without snow.

    • You are so right… that is exactly what I wear year round… flip flops and sandals. 😉 These boots are definitely not for snow that’s for sure. I always pull out my boots during winter and fall and try to make as much use of them that I can during that time. lol
