I love hotels. Things like unlimited quantities of ice, shiny revolving doors, card keys, and $10 trail mix make me happy. So when my beloved Caldwell booked a room for the weekend I was ecstatic and excitedly packed way more annoying accessories than I could ever manage to wear in such a short time. But man did I try. After a mimosa toast, we frolicked irresponsibly, indulged in bacon wrapped scallops (my newest ridiculous addiction), took millions of photos for no reason, and ended up at the drugstore buying more junk food than we could ever explain purchasing. Best weekend in recent history.

First set: H&M playsuit, Nine West wedges, Forever21 sunglasses.

Second set: Forever21 dress, Ralph Lauren blazer, Marc by Marc Jacobs boots, Target socks, Balenciaga bag.

Amazing dress! I love hotelling as well, especially if there is an ice machine; that reverts me back to childhood excitement straight away!

Looooooove the tassle dress. Theres a dusty pink one I was eyeing up in H&M .. may have to go back and take another look and decide. xxxx -London Fashiontoast addict.

La Fée said...

I love the fringed dress!
Also, the idea of bacon wrapped scallops is now making me feel really hungry...they sound delicious!

Ali said...

The angle on the second picture gives me the uneasy feeling you're about to tip out the window, but I am also deathly afraid of heights so that could be a large part of it. Do you have any brighter lit full lengths of first outfit? It looks really cute from what I could see!

Jennifer said...

Oh how I love going to random drugstores to buy junk food to eat with the boyfriend. Fun stuff.

I like the flapper dress. I've never seen it at Forever21, though.

STARR said...

I just tried on that fringed dress this weekend!
your pictures look awesome btw <3

Jenna said...

ooomg!! is that nagaraya?

that's like THE snack here in the boondocks called the PI baby!

didn't know they ate Filipino stuff in the US!
hahaha you got me all excited.
i laab.

your second outfit: amazing
your cheeto/chips/snack photo: been there too many times
your photographer: attractive

isn't it funny how much fun you can have vacationing in your own city? :)

Miss_Red said...

Great look! There's nothing better than mini-bar snacks even though they're so ridiculously expensive! xx

Carrie said...

I completely agree, hotels are the best! Great pics by the window, too. Glad to know you had a fun weekend. :-)

thank you by advance,

WendyB said...

Were you in a junk food coma? :-)

kirsten said...

I have that same dress and the shirt version too. I ordered them both the second they put them on their site. They are sooo cute! Love the Nine West shoes and the headband. I swear it seems like everything you have posted from Forever21 lately I have, which is great for me because it gives me a different perspective than my own on how to wear them!

alicia said...

great style, i'm loving your blog!! added it to my faves.

Kiz said...

Looks fun! The color on that playsuit is awesome!

justme said...

That sounds like so much fun! You and your boyfriend seen to have such a wonderful relationship!

You look amazing, as usual.
I'm really loving the first few photos, especially the first. And you make me want to buy that Balenciaga.

I had an army green pair, but sadly they were in a purse that was stolen from me last week :(


Lovely pictures!

JBinTokyo said...

I would really like to see a better picture of the first outfit you're wearing with the knee socks. Could you please post?

Anonymous said...

i love the pictures of you against the hotel window, they are amazing-and your boyfriend has a perfect face/skin, you guys are beautiful

flannelrox said...

wow, your bf looks like an af model.
love your outfits. the headband is so unexpected with the dress, which is why i like it.
and that romper, ive seen it at hm and always wondered how someone would actually wear it. did you wear it outside or only in the room?

Pamcasso said...

Love the headband. Where's it from?

malin said...

Oh my god. I love your dress. And your pictures. I love your blog!

Love from Sweden!

Ediot said...

sey said...

Karen said...

Love the dress&the bag! Totally TDF!:D Been reading your blog for a while now..and how I wish I had the guts to wear the outfits youve been wearing..Youre just a natural at it, arent you?:)

Btw, I meant to ask this. I've noticed the NineWest Gladiator Sandals [Heech] you've been wearing in some of your posts, and Im totally IN LOVE with it. Which color do you think is better/more versatile, BROWN or BLACK?:)

Hope to hear from ya!

erika said...

BEAUTIFUL! Where was the hotel at?! It looks amazing. The BF and I do the same things and we get junk food late at night! Hahahah we should all hang out, I'm sure it would be FUN!

lulu said...

Is this what you meant when you texted me "PS: wearing fringe" LOL You look HOT woman!!!

Alline said...

You guys are on fire together!!!!

Lena said...

You look adorable in your heartglasses!

Blue Floppy Hat said...

Bacon-wrapped scallops? Yum...and you look amazing with the headband. I'm just going to put your ability to carry it and everything else off down to preternatural coolness and leave it at that..

TINE said...

I love eating those Asian snacks that you bought like those cheese rings and nagaraya.

Society Hill said...

that dress is absolutely fantastic.

fashion* CHALET said...

Cute H&M playsuit. We so need one here (H&M!) can you post clearer pics of the playsuit, it looks adorable!

Lorentzo* said...

LOVE*

Ally said...

hey was just wondering if you dyed your hair yourself or if your get it done in a salon, and also what colour do u get? sorry for the barrage of questions but i love ur hair! x

Anonymous said...

You look adorable in the first picture!

Oh, and about the junk food--Rumi oh Rumi, hitting the peace pipe again.

The Vancouverista said...

those first four pictures are seriously awesome! probably the best by far that i've seen on your blog! and that's saying a lot!

Caroline said...

how perfect! I miss San Francisco so much....and Napa for that matter.
but i've noticed forever21 dresses just keep getting shorter and shorter. its the stranges thing. but they look amazing on you!

corienga said...

on this point i'm like you, i love hotels! it's always pretty and clean!

Anonymous said...

your bf is sexy as hell!

sonja said...

the combination of alcohol, hotels and absolutely fantastic sunglasses is practically orgasmic in and of itself. add overpriced/junk food and you have a second calling. my god will you ever cease to amaze?

kirsten said...

Just out of curiousity are your elbows perhaps hyperextended? I ask because I noticed a comment from someone about "how your arm is able to bend like that in the second photo" and decided to see what they were talking about. Upon a closer look I noticed that the way your arm is bent seemed oddly familiar because my arms looks just like that and I've always been told it was because my elbows are hyperextended.

Luxe. said...

I have been waiting for the pink version of that dress to come into a UK H&M for what feels like forever! Looks like you had a great time!

Toni Alexis said...

looks fun! i looove hotel weekends! and everytime i see that bag i want one!

xoxo

smokey said...

ahhh
adobo cracker nuts
<3333
beats american junk food!

-love the heart shaped glasses as well

passing by said...

your blog is so much fun!

xoxo.

Vix said...

You look so great! Your in really good shape :). Is your boyfriend's name actually Caldwell? Because that is a kick-ass name!

tova said...

gahh, you are too adorable.

Freskababy said...

you are so pretty. I am 13 and i just want to say how much you are an inspiration to my everyday style! i read all of your posts, and even have some of your outfits on my inspiration wall. thx for being so stylish lol!

catpower said...

rumi, this one totally knocked me off my feet, you are really amazing, i just dont understand why your not working for vogue or something- simply amazing

also you guys make a stunning couple, both really good looking!


xxx

-h of candid cool said...

that flapper dress is amazing, f21, even more amazing. and ur boy has nice eyes.

and save me some teddy grams ;)

Jen said...

LOL, I love that picture of you passed out next to all that junk food. You lucky girl.

Rumi said...

WOW thank you for all the amazingly sweet comments, I'm so glad you enjoy the photos as much as we do taking them :)

LOVED all the snack commentary, ok how random is it that my boyfriend likes Asian food/snacks more than I do even, he picked out those Filipino nuts/cheese rings. And they were awesome. Though the Japanese chocolate mushrooms were definitely my idea. Those went rather quickly, and my mom stole the rest when I brought them home. Sigh.

Mmm and in regards to the H&M playsuit, well it is kind of scandalous and I can't figure out if it's beach garb or what, definitely sketchy for wearing outside the confines of one's house. Which is why there aren't clearer shots of it haha. Though I do love it..here's a shot of the whole thing from nitrolicious - http://www.nitrolicious.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/hm_women_19.jpg

Mel the nail polish is OPI's I'm Not Really a Waitress, classic status.

Alicia, such a cute collage! Love those shoes.

Jessica, the lame leggings are teh shiny ones, no texture.

Daniela, YES Target is the best for socks and tights. Love.

The M by MJ boots in these pics are different from the "soccer" ones I got in April..I indulged myself in two pairs haha and I love them both.

The headbands is also from Forever21. I have a problem, I know. It's actually a necklace and comes in pink too, which, incidentally, I also have.

Karen well I'm partial to the black..but both are nice!

The hotel was in Union Square in SF, right next to..way too much to do.

Lulu ahhah well I wouldn't lie about fringe, especially to a fellow fringe addict. Serious stuff.

LOL and yeah I have weird hyper-extendy elbows. I always forget about it but sometimes people get freaked out about the whole thing. Trust me, they don't even look that bad here.

Vix you're too cute, well Caldwell isn't his real name, just something that came into being last time I posted pics with him and there was a little...drama. But agreed, I love last names as first names and I've even taken to calling him that in real life sporadically.

Catpower, you are always so sweet <3

H, :P hehe.

Fashionispoison UGH that sucks, sorry about your car!! Trail mix always helps.

And the boyfriend appreciates all the flattery haha, he's been spying about on the comments.

R said...

Ooh I love the black dress+headband! And the junk food photo is so cute, now I want cheetos!

monique said...

^hahaha thats really funny

rumi, you are such an inspiration- i love how you mix elements and take them out of their normal and banal usages..it makes me really want to think outside the box!


this is a fairly randomly specific question but, in the pic with all the silver bracelets, where did you get the one that has pyramid studs? thanks!

Lucy-Jane said...

You look so skinny!! Eat some junkfood....oh wait.

I love packing far too much stuff than you need. I always seem to get about 4 pairs of shoes in there, even if it's only a couple of days...just in case I change my mind. And shoes take up heaps of room, they won't squash.

AlicePleasance said...

I need those heartshaped sunnies in white! They're great. Beautiful photos!

a. said...

i love hotels too. one of my absolute favourite things.

capturedlife said...

but where do you get your m by mj boots? theyre vintage arent they?
i want some so bad, especially those you wear in this post

rumy whats your occupation? somethignn with fashion? i hope so!:)

Old.soul.in.the.city said...

Aww cute looks like you guys had fun!

Stylish Thought said...

You both are too good looking... you make me sick...in a good way! Love the post!

hey, is that the Westin on Market? I love that hotel cuz the lobby smells so nice...i know that carpet

yeah just to say it out blantely, your bf is hot. Hey bf, you're hot. Did he ever get approched to model of something? seriously though...such a gorgeous couple you are.

Your outfits are so cool! I just love everything about it. Too bad we can see the playsuit on you all that well..

thanks for the h&m pic/link of the playsuit. your photographer is a cutie, and you look great as always! ♥ :-)

alis said...

what a cute couple u guys are, these photos made me want to stay at a hotel with my bf too. it's nice to see no agressive commenters are attacking gorgeous mr. caldwell this time!

kirsten said...

Yeah having hyperextended elbows does indeed have a tendency to freak people out. I actually didn't think yours looked bad at all, mine are usually much worse and I had forgetten about it until I noticed that comment about your arms. If you think thats bad, you should see my hips, both sides of my hips are double jointed so I can make them pop in and out of the joint, it so weird, I am bizarrely double jointed in the most unsual places like both my pinky fingers, my right thumb, and too many others to name. Perhaps instead of fashion I should consider a career in the circus one day...

Bea said...

looks like funnn:) and you're right, hotelling is so pleasing!

adobo nagaraya and cheese rings?

adobo nagaraya and cheese rings?

Jessica said...

Rumi, do you know anyone from the Philippines? Just wondering because the junk food you have in that photo are awfully familiar--nagaraya, cheese rings--and I didn't think they sold those outside our country.

Random haha. :)

Rumi said...

LOL Kirsten I always forget about it until people randomly make sure to remind me.

Jessica hahha not really, my boyfriend LOVES Asian snacks though and he picked those out while we were drunkenly at a drugstore in San Francisco.
