<h2>
<u>What Is This?</u></h2>
In the summer of 2015, I was out on a mission: Find a wide brimmed sunhat that I love. I soon found out that this was going to be a harder task than I'd initially thought. Either they were too floppy or had to small of a brim and if not that then the colour was just completely unappealing. Finally, in a cute little shop in Delaware, I found one I loved. I wore it the whole trip and I haven't failed to take it with me on a tropical vacation since.<br />
<br />
I figured, since it's constantly with me on my tropical getaways, and often shows up in my pictures, it would be a fitting name for this blog series.<br />
<br />
So with that being said, here's the first of the blue hat diaries: Maui.<br />
<br />

It was so good to see palm trees! There's nothing that can instantly instill a feeling of inner peace like watching palm trees gently swaying in the breeze. The sunsets were just as beautiful as everyone made them out to be. After the beautiful yellows and oranges faded, the sky would take on a pink and purple haze that was so calming. I could sit under skies like this forever. Unfortunately, the sunrise was mostly hidden by mountains, however I definitely got my sunrise fix-more on that soon.<br />
<br />
I had the biggest freak out at the airport when I realized I had forgotten my make-up bag! I was set for a trip without an eyebrow pencil, moisturizer, concealer or any lip products. Thankfully, on the second day in my journey to the little shopping village that was about a fifteen minute walk along the path from my hotel, I found a Sephora! So that turned out okay after all.<br />
<br />
I stayed at the Hyatt on Kaanapali Beach in Lahaina. There are quite a few hotels along that stretch. The Sheraton is one of those hotels and happens to be right by an area called Black Rock where the snorkeling was really good. In Maui I tried paddle boarding for the first time, really early in the morning and it was so relaxing. I kept my balance much better than I thought I would.<br />

One of the most recommended things to do on Maui is The Road To Hana. There are too many stops to do them all in a day and I took too many beautiful pictures to fit them all in one post. But these are some of the highlights.<br />
<br />
There are a number of waterfalls on The Road To Hana. Some you can see right from your car window, and if it's safe, you can pull over and take a few snaps. It's the most beautiful sound to hear as you navigate the curvy uphill drive. Other waterfalls can be seen when you enter some of the botanical gardens or parks along the way. The waterfall above was a sight from The Garden of Eden. There are five hundred labeled plants in the garden as well as a few peacocks and a lei wearing dog.<br />
<br />
The last two pictures are from Wai'anapanapa State Park, which has a beautiful black sand beach and gorgeous turquoise water. It was starting to get late at this point so I didn't stop to swim but I was very content to relax for a few moments and take pictures.<br />
<br />
I'll likely do a separate blog post on Hana, as this doesn't even cover half of that day trip. So look out for that!<br />

These shots are from Haleakala, a volcanic crater. It's a quick little hike from where you park to the <br />
top of the crater, where you're ten thousand feet above sea level. You're also above the clouds! If you go really early like I did then you can watch the sunrise above the clouds-which is absolutely the most breathtaking sight I've ever seen. I can't even put into words how absolutely amazing it was.<br />
<br />
Note: Now you have to make a reservation ahead of time with the state park to watch the sunrise, to control the amounts of visitors at this time.<br />
<br />
Maui is a beautiful island and a week there was not enough! But, it wasn't the end of my vacation, the lush and beautiful Kauai was beckoning. Look out for that post soon!<br />

So it's been awhile since I've uploaded a blog post, and I can make a thousand and one excuses for it: I started and finished my first year of college, started working, been thoroughly exhausted...really I just had no motivation to be writing blog posts.<br />
<br />
That's not to say I no longer like blogging, or writing for that matter. I had to kind of take a step back and figure out what it is that I want to be writing about so that motivation would be there.<br />
<br />
So with that being said, I'm back! The blog has been revamped to a more modern aesthetic that I love and my posts are definitely going to be much more varied. I love smoothies to death and I am, in fact, drinking one at this moment (Orange, Strawberry & Wheat Grass mix) but pretty much only writing about smoothies was a bit of a drag-and I'm sure you guys would like to read about more than just smoothies too!<br />
<br />
I really would like this blog to encompass my lifestyle and the things that are important to me. I'm in school for business and I think it's important that more blogs talk about finances especially for young people. But travel, fashion, health- those are all also important aspects of my life and just as important (as well as more fun!) to read about.<br />
<br />
Here's to a well-rounded blog! Hope you're all as excited as I am for this fresh start for Lovely Irrelevance.<br />

They're all over instagram. Yes, smoothie bowls seem to have taken the world by storm this summer and their popularity doesn't seem to be decreasing anytime soon. After many, many pathetic attempts, I'd like to say that I'm getting quite good at making them! I decided to share my top three favourite ones with you!<br />
<br />
My first success was while I was on vacation and we had just gone to the local farmer's market and picked up a variety of fresh fruits. <br />

Since then I've made multiple other smoothie bowls, the ones shown above being my favourite. The recipes for these and others are to come. I've decided to do a Smoothie of the week, so once a week I'll be blogging about my current favourite smoothie/smoothie bowl and give you the recipe to try! </div>

I really do wish we could have stayed another week, but alas, I'm back to reality! Of course, if you're following my instagram @frxnch.kxss then you were able to see some little snapshots of my trip, but I've now got digital copies of the shots I took on my camera! So without further ado, here are the highlights of my trip to Delaware.<br />

(Woohoo!) Summer is here and I'll now be able to spend more time doing the things I love-yes, that includes blogging! In spirit of summer I've decided to do a list of some of my favourite summer breakfasts. My natural path has banned me from wheat, gluten and most dairy for two months so if you have any meal ideas for me please leave a comment, I"ll love you forever for it!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br />
<br />
First breakfast idea is a good old smoothie. If you couldn't tell from my previous post <a href="http://frame.bloglovin.com/?post=4372083694&group=0&frame_type=b&context=blog_profile&context_ids=&blog=13935711&frame=1&click=0&user=0">For The Love of Smoothies</a>, I love smoothies. Click the link for some smoothie ideas!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtk9T-tluBFFSpUbA4GobNLZA4-k_AChwWpRDvcGN1stJXamoCQ9fW6GN4EIIuBnVSUWtMeErjUKxvwaPSBWPXKegKJtl4SKP-7gSo0qmM7QVrsR2t4tyQXQjk__KpNywpB6JlMZFhaA_0/s1600/image2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtk9T-tluBFFSpUbA4GobNLZA4-k_AChwWpRDvcGN1stJXamoCQ9fW6GN4EIIuBnVSUWtMeErjUKxvwaPSBWPXKegKJtl4SKP-7gSo0qmM7QVrsR2t4tyQXQjk__KpNywpB6JlMZFhaA_0/s400/image2.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Another of my favourite breakfasts to make is granola, vanilla flavoured yogurt and fresh, cut up strawberries. It's quick, delicious and healthy. Swap out the vanilla yoghurt for greek yogurt for less calories and more protein.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Whole wheat blueberry pancakes are great for mornings that aren't so rushed. I buy a whole wheat pancake mix and then add blueberries into the batter. You can also do this with raspberries, strawberries or for a treat-chocolate chips!<br />
<br />
<br />
That's it for now, as I've still got quite a bit to do before I leave for my trip (four more days!!!). I'll probably end up doing a part two of this and seeing as breakfast is my favourite meal, don't be surprised if a part three comes is posted in the future!<br />

Tuesday will be my last day of school which means the start of my summer vacation! In two weeks today, I'll be in Delaware and I look forward to doing some blog posts from there! I'll be staying in Delaware for about a week and staying in NYC for three days on the way back. Expect lots of beach photos, shopping hauls and restaurant reviews. I'll be posting on my instagram @frxnch.kxss quite often during the trip, so you can follow that if you'd like.<br />

The perfect drink on a hot day, it's both refreshing and revitalising. I thought I'd share a couple of my favourite smoothie recipes below.</span><br />

About two hours ago I figured out what my COTD (Craving of the day) was-apple crisp! Unfortunately, I went down to the kitchen to discover that my dad had eaten the last of it. Alas, there was no need for me to be sad for long! A little digging through my mom's cookbooks and I found a recipe for apple crisp which also happened to be rated <i>"very good" </i>by my mom (translation: 9-10/10).</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Making it was a lot simpler than I expected. It took me about 10 minutes to mix everything together and then it baked in the oven for 40 minutes. The recipe is below but I recommend that you double the amount of oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and butter and put half the mix on the bottom for a thicker pie. Also notice the directions to <i>cut butter into the mix. </i>If you don't know how to to do that, definitely search it up because you won't get the crumble on top.</span><br>

My name is Tiana and I'm a sixteen year old living in Canada. My interests are traveling, reading, fitness, fashion and music so this blog is more or less going to be a lifestyle blog full of all of those topics!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I'll do my best to post regularly but I can'y make any promises since I'm still (unfortunately) in school. Also this is my first blog (not including Tumblr of course) so bear with me as I figure out how to do this! </span><br />
