Hawaiian Fusion, Washington D.C.
I love this picture. Two kupuna with classic and contemporary taste. They match without being too "matchy matchy". Her top, while classic Asia, is a subtle pink that gives rise to his outfit and the marble background; then the favor is returned. His Hawaiian top is made with quite a contemporary twist. Look at the sleeves. I HEART his lei and hat. He would have made the The Sartorialist if he was spotted in NY.

Celebrity Sighting, O'ahu
Vilsoni Hereniko. Many of you know he made the brilliant film: The Land Has Eyes.
Shown throughout the world at film festivals in 2004, it's an important piece for Islanders today in 2007 and will be 20 years from now. He's a professor, has been many places, seen many things, and won countless awards yet continues to maintain ancestral ties to his land and identity. He's my first celebrity post and for now the only celebrity worth posting.
The film is now on DVD and is a must have: www.thelandhaseyes.com.

The Desk That Makes Me Smile, O'ahu
This is my husband's desk (at least part of it). The style and the orderliness makes me smile. He's my retentive hunk in this life and beyond. Perhaps he'll let me exploit his good looks on this blog one day. For now, check out the carvings from Tonga, next the piece from Rapa Nui, next to the royal lei, next to the Hawaiian basket, next to the Chamorro bracelet, next to the . . . ipod? The journey through modernity continues. . .
A Plug, O'ahu
This is the first endorsement on Style Pasifika. . . I'm sure many of you would acknowledge that this is an awesome picture. Not only because Pasifik Zen (see original post 10.9) is awfully handsome! But also the technique, the color, and the style causes a visceral effect on us, the consumer.
When the photo was taken, I was sad that what I wanted wasn't what was turning out. MARK LEE fixed this photo (and me in the process).
He's magic . . . oh, and he's also one of the best photographers I know.

Let's Not Mince Words . . .
This is one of those photos . . .

North Shore Friends, O'ahu
This is exactly how I saw him in front of Haleiwa Eats.
Relaxed and soaking up the atmosphere.
I don't want him to move a muscle so I start yammering something about, "hi, this is for my blog. so sorry to bother you. if you could not move. . ." If you could not move???
Well, he was a great sport. And was hangin with two totally cool gals (below). Did I just say gals??
