THE SUPER CW PARTY AT FRESH CAFE. (Yes, if you follow me on twitter and friends with me on FB, then YES i'm repeating myself.) Started off with a definite, and MUCH needed bang, `cause CW knows how to throw a DAMN party and to start things off, the Deadbeats KILLED it on stage with a great, and never-gets-old, performance. After a brief interlude of mad beats, and fresh tunes of DJ Eskae, he threw in a great intro by Sam Sharpo that started off the Fashion Show, ending with "The Reeling" by Passion Pit. Whether you were actually there or not, here's some footage to relive or catch up with:<br /><br /><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 604px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 403px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs086.snc3/15341_611793089776_19505118_35183684_1890528_n.jpg" /></div><div>Mahina in T-Back Kimono Dress.</div><div></div><div><a href="http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs106.snc3/15341_611793084786_19505118_35183683_4530392_n.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 604px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 403px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs106.snc3/15341_611793084786_19505118_35183683_4530392_n.jpg" /></a> Justine in Racer Back Tank & High Waisted Paper Bag waist skirt.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs106.snc3/15341_611793079796_19505118_35183682_16961_n.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 604px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 403px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs106.snc3/15341_611793079796_19505118_35183682_16961_n.jpg" /></a>Rain in Paper Back waist shorts with lumberjack peek-a-boo pockets; Sueded Knit slouchy top, and reversable fur frontier hat.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs106.snc3/15341_611793074806_19505118_35183681_5979945_n.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 604px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 403px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs106.snc3/15341_611793074806_19505118_35183681_5979945_n.jpg" /></a> Krista in a familiar piece, the Romper.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs106.snc3/15341_611793069816_19505118_35183680_4199511_n.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 403px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 604px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs106.snc3/15341_611793069816_19505118_35183680_4199511_n.jpg" /></a> Kiani in the apparently favored piece of the night: The Metallic Gold Paper Bag waist skirt.<br /><div></div><div></div><div><a href="http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs086.snc3/15341_611793064826_19505118_35183679_5737506_n.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 403px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 604px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs086.snc3/15341_611793064826_19505118_35183679_5737506_n.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div>Rain in yet another familiar piece; the black and white poncho.</div><div><a href="http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs106.snc3/15341_611793054846_19505118_35183677_7024903_n.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 604px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 403px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs106.snc3/15341_611793054846_19505118_35183677_7024903_n.jpg" /></a><br />Mahina in faux fur pelt, slouchy tank, textured harems; Erica in cropped motor, fingerless gloves, and velour harems.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs086.snc3/15341_611793059836_19505118_35183678_2190468_n.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 403px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 604px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs086.snc3/15341_611793059836_19505118_35183678_2190468_n.jpg" /></a> Erica (here, the harems.)</div><div>**And all models also sported Jewelry designed and handmade by Trunnk Jewelry designer, Katlin Taosaka.

Inspired by rock curvetures; that thin median between hard and soft where a structural pieces like rock can still have a gentle appearance. Basically driving pass Makapu'u / Cockroach Cove area with all the rocks and swirly walls alongside the roads, and all the concave formations really caught my eye just driving thru the other week and thought that would be a good interpretation of what I feel right now. Weaves/CrossHatching signature MB steeze is making that comeback.<br /><br />I couldn't decide what "season" to design for, so basically I'm bring that "you have to live in Hawaii to know" that kind of steeze into this. So I am basically trying to design for that season between fall AND spring. (aka Hawaii year long summer; but with pieces for those occassional cold nights.)<br /><br />All this and more happening December 18th, at the Fresh Cafe Warehouse. Performances by The JumpOffs, The Deadbeats, and The Girlfriends will rock the house. And DJ Eskae (of Nocturnal Sound Crew) and DJ Nicky Savage of LA will be spinning the night away. And EVERYONE is invited. And when I say everyone, I mean your little sister and your Grandma Annie can come on DOWN!

A million phone calls, ok not a million, but more than usual, led me to appreciate time, patience, and friendships.<br /><br />I got a call from former classmate, Dana, about joining their team as a production/photo/stylist assistant for their photoshoots, shot around the nation. They've published work in Vogue, and did a lot of print ads for Apple, and other corporate clientele. I must say, if I am able to join this team, things are going be great.<br /><br />SO aside from all that here's what the week was like, and how its gonna be (photo updates later):<br /><br />Thursday 9/10/09 -- Escada Party with Hawaii RED; Acid Dolls Fashion Show/After Party at Pearl Lounge<br /><br />Lehua (Fashion Director HRMag), Me, Colin, Kelsey, Elyse, Ryan of Ulupono, and Noa (Ground Up)<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs269.snc1/9628_591925344896_19500841_34540072_173358_n.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NWgQYjel66Q/SqwPIJ43VgI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/QeqIP9vGHSs/s320/8727_1214798842661_1009519875_677236_1710769_n.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380692287568696834" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs269.snc1/9628_591925165256_19500841_34540071_3327219_n.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NWgQYjel66Q/SqwPdOuQedI/AAAAAAAAAIY/Z5V_eCDb2bg/s320/8727_1214799002665_1009519875_677240_753615_n.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380692649643637202" border="0" /></a>Me, Nicole & Noa<br /><br />Friday 9/11/09 -- WOW already 8 years ago from 9/11....damn.

I've been gearing towards a more bohemic vibe for this Post-Summer/Pre-Fall collection that blends both vintage styles and vintage fabric, with modern and wearable silhouettes. I've taken a lot of inspiration from the 70s, with that whole spirit of fun and nostalgia. I feel these pieces are modern in a way that these revitalized styles and silhouettes are much present today and I wanted to be a part of that to help capture the spirit of it all. So here's your 'sneak peek! (I know it's two similar pieces...lol. I want you guys to be there to see the rest!)</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"> </div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 374px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 500px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://c4.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/95/l_93f1ff45e57d49049c4e0a296985a0eb.jpg" /><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><div align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 449px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 599px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://c3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/80/l_ba233c74888548568e0ecc47739a371a.jpg" /> </div><br /><br /><div align="center"></div>HOUSE OF MBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17313245697048480419noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7059265723596791022.post-33370906933603998212009-08-05T00:56:00.000-07:002009-08-05T01:04:54.188-07:00STIMULUS FASHION SHOW | 08.14.09<div align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 331px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 500px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://c2.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/68/l_fb567d95f93a4d58a7a2f64cd474f95d.jpg" /><br /><div align="center">last mb fashion show. </div><br /><br />i've been thinking about where i want to gear myself, and i've came to terms with my expectations. this will be my last fashion show...of 2009 that is.
