Our kind of morning

Early Mornings“I love early mornings when it feels like the rest of the world is still fast asleep and you’re the only one who’s awake & everything feels like it isn’t really real & you kind of forget about all your problems because for now its just you, the world & the sunrise”

Sharing your life with someone special is the most beautiful thing. Cherish those moments, don’t ever take them for granted & get lost on each other & your beautiful surroundings. It is a beautiful mind thing to be able to escape for just a moment from your every day worries & let go. Meditate, be thankful & take a second to appreciate your surroundings… no matter how busy your life can be, everybody has a second to feed their soul & thoughts.

SL x Shannon Cummings ♥

We partnered up with the talented photographer Shannon Cummings for something a little different. We got a mix of her favorite style & colors, with a little bit of our newest styles & prints from our Pre Fall Collection. This time around, we were looking for something that would allow for you to see the fun & simple beauty of Hawai’i through someone that experiences it on a daily basis. Shannon is a photographer that is truly an island lover, we love how she embraces Hawai’i, how she respects the land & how she takes full advantage on her days on the island.

We are big fans of those who free-spirited life, vibrant souls, and we are always looking for those individuals that whenever you see them in person or even online make you feel a bit more alive.

Hope you enjoy a bit of Hawaii’s taste through Shannon’s lenses as much as we do!

1234567“There is not a day that goes by where I don’t stop for a moment and reflect on the beauty around me. Whether it’s your hundredth or first time visiting the Pacific in Hawaii, undoubtedly you can always appreciate the smell of the ocean in the afternoon breeze. the sound of waves kissing the shoreline over and over, and the warmth of the sand that transports us to a simpler life. These moments are pure bliss. These moments should be photographed. ” – Shannon Cummings SanLorenzo-100SanLorenzo-15SanLorenzo-6SanLorenzo-16SanLorenzo-3SanLorenzo-1

beauty“I look with my heart, my ears & my mind because beauty is lost looking just with your eyes”

There is something beautiful everywhere, embrace what is around you. Use your 5 senses & you will get the most out of every beautiful thing, no matter how small it is. Live to the fullest, enjoy every moment, no matter how sunny or cloudy it may be outside. Always remember, mind over matter.
