PIER AVENUE

Curvy Girl Chic Plus Size Fashion Blog Thread and Butter Noah Tank
Last outfit post from Hawaii! Wearing more tie dye from Thread & Butter. :)

[ :: Thread & Butter Noah tank c/o :: Asos skirt :: Marni for H&M necklace :: Target sandals :: Grafea backpack :: ]

Tie dye on tie dye! I love the swingy shape that happened from pairing these two pieces. This top has quickly become a weekend staple since I came back home--it's super soft and the bright color is so right for these hot days we've been having!

I never got a lei while we were in Hawaii, so I improvised with this oversized flower necklace from the Marni for H&M collab several seasons ago. I love the clunkiness of it! Finished off the look with these sandals which have pretty much been worn to death since I bought them--I plan on getting them in several more colors! At $15 each, they're the perfect beach/pool sandal!

IN YOUR SKIN

Curvy Girl Chic Plus Size Fashion Blog SwimsuitsforAll
Every girl needs a swimsuit she feels awesome in and this suit totally does it for me. Does it hide every bulge, make me look 2 sizes smaller, or magically turn me into Beyonce? No. And I really wouldn't care for it to (aside from making me look like Beyonce...that would be pretty insane.). But I absolutely love the bright pink color and snakeskin-esque print, and I can't say enough about the fact that I spent an entire day out in the water and had ZERO wardrobe malfunctions. SO MUCH WIN.

I get so many comments/emails/messages about how I'm lucky because I have a flat stomach, or skinny legs, and I'm here to tell you, SEE BELOW FOR THE TRUTH. lol! I'm far from flat-stomached, and definitely don't have skinny legs, but that doesn't mean I'm about to hide under something "flattering" and sit on the sidelines at the beach! I'm a water baby and always have been, so if there's snorkeling, swimming, or boarding to be done, you'd better believe I'll be out in the water, not giving a crap how people think I look in my swimsuit.

My favorite Hawaii memories took place while wearing this swimsuit. Big thanks to swimsuitsforall who hooked it up with this gorgeous suit, perfect for a long day of snorkeling and swimming at Hanauma Bay! xoxo!

Curvy Girl Chic Travel Hawaii Photo Diary
Had such an incredible time in Hawaii. (Is it even possible to have a bad time in Hawaii??) Quick instagram and iPhone photo recap before I share my outfits with you over the next couple weeks. :) xoxo!
**Side note, just noticed that one of the people in the photo above looks like she or he is mooning the beach. lol.

Curvy Girl Chic Travel Hawaii Photo Diary - Travel Look in Rachel Pally
Flying in a Rachel Pally dress was the best decision ever. Also, I could stare at palm trees swaying in the wind all day long.

If you haven't been to Hanauma Bay, go immediately. It's amazing. Seriously.

Curvy Girl Chic Travel Hawaii Photo Diary - Manoa Falls
I seriously didn't realize what I was getting myself into with this hike. Trudging through 6-inch mud? I wouldn't have brought such a cute bag.

Hiking, Waimea Falls (aka the Drowning Pool, which I totally didn't know until later or i wouldn't have been so eager to hop in! O_O), Swimsuits for All Swim Sexy suit, and the birthday boy! ♥♥♥
