Happy Monday, everyone! Although we’re back at work, my mind is still on the weekend. In Waikiki, weekends are filled with festivities, weddings, and fireworks. Sometimes the fireworks are related to an event, and sometimes they’re just because…. Well, it’s the weekend and why not have fun?! I filmed a few for you on my phone. https://instagram.com/p/3ZZ_90ifM_/ One of the …
Okay, not really! But if you can’t get poolside with the designer in person, the second best option is to wear one of her creations. I love this bathing suit of hers. Sometimes, I find that the most flattering suits feel like armor. They suck me in here, push me up there, and pretty soon, I realize that in one …
That is what Hilton Hawaiian Village on Waikiki reminds me of. When I first visited this place as I kid, I felt like the Village was a world in and of itself, and it still is. Nestled at the ocean’s edge, it’s great for swimming, surfing, SUP exploring, lounging, and people-meeting. It has restaurants—some with music and dancing, lawn parties, …
When it comes to dancing, there is no trouble getting people to move to this fun tune by Iggy Azalea and Jennifer Hudson…and you can learn their moves here. To recreate the looks of these performing bombshells, here’s my beauty trend tutorial… https://katherinechloecahoon.com/iggy-and-jennifer-hudson-tutorials/
If you’ve seen this dynamite duo performing their hit song, Trouble, you may just have trend envy. So today, I’m telling how to get Iggy’s hair, plus these alluring ladies’ makeups. For Iggy’s look, begin by combing your hair into a high ponytail and curling the ends. To secure the ponytail, split it in half, side-by-side, and pull firmly near the elastic. To …
…is a time to remember that achieving peace and preserving freedom is worth every valiant effort. I managed to touch down in Honolulu among my business travel. Waikiki is a happy, international melting pot where vacationing sun-seekers form friendships on the sand. It’s hard to believe that 73 years ago, 2,400 American servicemen were killed here in a surprise attack …
“I started the business and called it Ted Baker because I thought, from day one, that it would be a failure, and I didn’t want to be ‘Ray Kelvin the bankrupt.’” Founder of one amazing U.K. brand, Ted Baker. I love that quote because it shows that fear of failure is no reason to not try. But Ray Kelvin had …
My grandma has been quite a hit on my sites. I still receive emails that go something like this… “How is your grandma, the one who had her elderly book club read The Single Girl’s Guide to Meeting European Men?” Well, “still chugging along,” as she says. And you probably know that she still likes to dispense tips. She just …
I like to think of this post as Coffee with Caroline Wagner. I actually don’t drink coffee—I know, shocker! But regardless of what you choose for a morning wake-up call, you can slip it in between these poses and really start your day off right. If you do the entire series, it will take more than ten minutes, but we …
Fitness instructor Caroline Wagner is a gym goddess. When she pulls out her mat and strikes a yoga pose heads snap. It’s no wonder that she has appeared on NBC and in several commercials for her fitness expertise. This alone is impressive, but what astonishes me is that her face always looks red-carpet ready—even at the end of a long …
The other day, I was chatting with a friend who has been with his sweetheart for decades. “At first our love was filled with so much raw passion,” he recalled. “But I’d honestly say that I love my wife now more than I did the day we got married. Our love has moved into a close bond. She is my …
Yesterday, I was taking a break and scanning through a magazine when I spied a picture of the lovely Charlotte Olympia. That got me reminiscing about when I met this glamorous lady, so I decided to showcase her spring/summer shoe collection on this Fashion Friday. I call it “sorbet style” because Charlotte dipped her shoes in those hues—and I can’t think of …
Short notice seems to be my specialty:) Maybe that’s because when it comes to having fun, the word, “no” isn’t in my vocabulary. I recently put together a girls’ night in a flash. Here’s how you can do it too: Make a List. Having a list of the items you need before going to the store may sound simple, but …
You don’t have to be a sailor to join in the fun of boating season! You don’t even have to board a vessel. I often join friends for a waterfront picnic at a local park while watching the boats sail by as the sun sets. And you can stay in step with the season even when you’re away from the …
Tinashe’s All Hands On Deck, is a fitting dance to learn for Meeting Men Monday—and you get a step-by-step tutorial here, including instructions in the mirror. People can interpret the lyrics of this tune differently, but here is my take… This hot tamale had a boyfriend who took all of her love, treated her bad, and dumped her. But she became a new woman. …
