BEACHY ACCESSORY

I’ll be working a surfing event that’s coming up at the end of the month. To accessorize my favorite watch, I purchased a bracelet set from AMERICAN EAGLE OUTFITTERS. The look is simple, beachy and fun. For information on the watch that I’m wearing, use this LINK.

 

RUMFIRE POIPU BEACH KAUAI

Last night I had such a good time with 10 friends at KAUAI’S newest restaurant called RUMFIRE. We got the best seat in the house that sits 12 people very comfortably overlooking  Poipu Beach also known as The Point at Sheraton Beach to locals like me. The view is gorgeous. Palm trees, black hawaiian rocks, sand and the moonlit ocean was the evening backdrop. I couldn’t have asked for a better view. I’m not an alcoholic drinker so I usually order virgin drinks but I was very impressed with the RumFire Mocktails that were offered to me shortly after being seated. There’s about 6-8 drinks that are on the menu that are made to look like a cocktail but there’s no alcohol in it. I ordered the Sunny Aloha Fizz which was very good. It’s a blend of orange juice, pineapple juice, sprite and a couple other ingredients. The food was really good. We ordered a lot of what was on the menu. My favorites of the night for appetizers were the Barbecue Ribs, Bacon & Beets and Char Sui Salad. For the main entrees, my favorites were the Crab Crusted Opah and Steak. For dessert my friend requested a special dessert to be made for the entire table and the chef granted his request earlier when he made the reservations. The chef was so sweet. He introduced himself to our table and checked on us 3 times throughout the night. Service was excellent. We had one main waitress and she had several helpers. We started the night at 7pm and live music started at round 9pm. I think they have live music a couple times a week. The night was so much fun, we closed the place down. RumFire reminds me of being in a big city with its swanky decor and dress codes. It’s a place I look forward to visiting time and time again. The pictures I took were the best I could get and it captures very little of my experience there. It will give you the general idea but of course everything looks way better in real life. 

Pardon the flash. This is the table we sat at. Part of the table is behind the curtain.

The Crab Crusted Opah was so delicious and moist.

LOREAL PARIS HEALTY LOOK CREME GLOSS COLOR

Every month or so I have to color my hair because my hair turns a reddish brown color from daily sun exposure. Back in January, I colored my hair using  Nice ‘N Easy Color Blend Foam and wrote a review on it. Using this LINK will direct you to that review. March 1st, I colored my hair using LOREAL PARIS HEALTY LOOK CREME GLOSS COLOR in the color darkest brown. I love this color kit. I got a compliment the very next day after I applied the color. It gave me the rich brown, health, glossing looking hair I had been wanting. It was easy to apply and the best part was I waited a short 10 minutes for the color to set. Another thing I love about this kit was the 1.86 fl oz of Healthy Shine Conditioner. It’s a very generous amount of conditioner for a color kit. My hair is very thick and long and I had more than enough conditioner for a one time use. The box reads that the color lasts through 28 shampoos but I went past the 28 days and am now into day 45 or so of having this color and I’m now beginning to see some reddish brown highlights from sun exposure.
