About Me




Originally from the small beach town of Kailua, Hawai'i, Vivi is an island girl at heart.  After her high school graduation, she relocated to the mainland to pursue her goals and to enjoy the luxury of frequent travel.


Always passionate about the rockabilly music scene and lifestyle, Vivi decided to pose for her first photoshoot in 2010 as a tribute to pin-ups of the past. What was meant to be a once-off experience presented itself as opportunity when the set was internationally published in a popularly distributed magazine; since then, it's easy to see that this was Vivi's natural calling.  She now has many features on covers and in publications internationally (including writing a few articles); continues to work extensively with the top in vintage-inspired clothing, lingerie, swimsuit and accessory companies; she's been a featured model of reputable radio broadcasts (including Playboy radio); walks for high-end vintage fashion shows, performances, and much more.  She has also worked as an actress in short films, has extensive live presence experience as a burlesque/go-go performer and is now focused on music, as a guitarist for her own music project in the works.



Vivi keeps a perfect balance of playful and sultry in all of her photos and demeanor; no matter what, you can be sure they will always be tasteful and classy.



Other than being a self-managed model, Vivi owns a freelance make-up/styling business and is a licensed aesthetician.  She plans to consistently challenge herself creatively, not only as a model, but so much more... keep your eyes peeled, as she is only just getting started.

For Sweethearts

Hello, loves!  After much contemplation (procrastination?), I finally have a picture filled blog post, as promised!  If you follow me on Instagram , you'll know that I frequently do style/O.O.T.D. posts, however, I only showcase a couple of photos from a complete set.  Therefore, the purpose of this blog will be to provide much more content, as well as keep up with requested inquiries on look specifics and give more detailed feedback on each look.  It's been a long time coming and I'm excited to begin this project with you guys!  Since we are honing in on Valentine's Day, I figured this would be the perfect opportunity to kick off with a themed post  - what better than a baby pink dress paired with complimentary ivory lingerie?  Whether you will be celebrating Valentine's Day with a loved one, friends or family, or by treating yourself (which I highly encourage), it cannot be denied that this is a perfect opportunity to dress up! ...

Summertime

Ah, summertime... when the days are longer, and the vibe is more care-free.  It's the perfect time to bring out those lightweight frocks and store away the layers (in Southern California, anyway) .  The obvious dress choices would be bright, fun florals and patterns... however, I wanted to change it up and go for a more neutral summer look for this post. I opted for this wonderful curve-hugging classic by Stop Staring Clothing -  the Billion Dollar Baby Dress in tan and black dots.   I can confidently state that I own this style of dress more than any other, and for me, it's a no brainer as to why.  It's classic, chic,  and  comfortable... hugs your body in just the right way, keeping a bit of modesty while simultaneously showing off your best assets... truly a must own for every lady, no matter your shape or size. Fun fact:  I used to really dislike polka dot  anything ... I felt it was very cliche and obvious, especial...

Bewitching Style

Happy October, lovelies.  The season of bewitching style... For today's blog, I am featuring my favorite lingerie brand, Secrets in Lace , in a picture-heavy post to show just how versatile their pieces can be. I am wearing the Angela Point D'Esprit Blouse over the Andrea Vintage Strapless Longline  bra.  I wear these pieces often, and they always receive endless compliments.  Also, as you may have already guessed, I am wearing a SIL garter belt and nylons; the  Intrigue Garter Belt  with the Dana Glamour heel  in beige (backseams are my favorite, and oh-so classic).  To change the look up and add even more Va-Va-Voom , I switched out the blouse for a vintage necklace to match my earrings, and faux leather opera length gloves to perfectly compliment my faux leather pencil skirt - you can actually find these on Amazon!  My heels are Louboutin "New Very Prive" and were a perfect pick for this elegant, vampy loo...
