Located in the old Fighting Eel location in Kahala Mall next to T&C. Waiwaolani surprised me as I…read morewas walking around yesterday. I always see their store online and was hesitant to buy due to not knowing my exact size. It was nice to be able to feel the different fabrics. They don't all have tags on them, but if you ask for the price they will tell you. Their prices are reasonable and can be seen on their online store. They are also out of a lot of sizes and items, but they are slowly opening boxes to restock them. The set up is very clean and nice. The staff are super friendly and will give you any tips for sizing. I will be back once their shelves are restocked.

So very happy that Waiwaolani has opened a store here on Oahu! I first purchased this brand when…read morethey were stocked and sold through Kūkolu at Salt in Kaka'ako. I've also purchased by calling the Maui store. All the staff I've interacted with are top notch when it comes to customer service! I've also had the opportunity to meet and chit-chat with store owner Rosie Aiwohi, during her Oahu grand opening at Kahala. She is truly a genuinely lovely person with such a big heart. She is compassionate about her brand and I love that her prints all have a story and are designed with intention. I'm obsessed with this brand and plan to be a long time customer!

This lovely and upscale Hawaiian dress and aloha shirt shop used to be located in the industrial…read moredistrict of Kalihi. A few years ago the business was sold and moved into the McCully Moiliili area of Honolulu. The newer location is much more convenient for me. There is a lot of parking as it shares parking lot with multiple other businesses and business offices including Fujiyama Texas Hawaii Kushi-Katsu. This location is much smaller compared to the previous location in Kalihi. Still, you will find the nicest ladies happy to provide superior service. One can shop from the clothing in store OR choose the materials and style desired and have something created for you. This week when I picked up my dress I could see the ladies busy making dresses for the young ladies graduating from Iolani School. Soon it will be for Hawaii's festivities for May's lei day. Then there are proms and graduations... I was told that their off the hangar collections will probably not get fuller until June or July. I am looking forward to returning then! Alterations can also be done in the store for a nominal fee. Thank you Bettina for taking such good care of me and my pretty new party dress! Discounts also available online at their website for 1st time customers.

I came in here with my sister to look for a shirt for her fiance. First thing I notice is the…read morelovely green carpet. :) They have a grand selection from old to new muumuu, dresses, tops, shirts, etc. The sizes for women range from 2-22. For men I'm not too sure. To get a better picture of what fabrics they have the sales lady took us to the fabric room. Oh my I was in heaven. From ceiling to floor, rows and rows of fabric in every color you can imagine. We were looking for a white/off white color fabric. The sales lady busted out all these rolls to choose from. Then we narrowed it down to the specific print we liked. And presto we got our fabric for the shirt. She even cut us a sample fabric to match the design and color with any other outfits. I think my sister is planning to get a matching muumuu to change into after the ceremony. Then they have a matching outfit to where in the future! The staff was very helpful. Very willing to help meet our needs. Makes a bride to be feel very special for their special day.

Shopping in Downtown Honolulu, Hawai'i…read more.. A dress in the window caught my attention. It looked cool and comfortable - perfect for this humid summer weather. I went inside Aloha Flowers to take a look. Service was very friendly and helpful. The worker said that the fabric was an exclusive Japan towel material... thin and durable. I perused the other merchandise: flip flops, towels, bags, jewelry, etc. It's an interesting, whimsical collection. Aloha Flowers was located next to O I De Kitchen on Merchant Street. Take a look when you're in the area!

This cute shop which you would easily miss is in "The Arcade" building and as I approached and glance at some of the items displayed in the window it was unusually different as the art was our local flowers with many items from shirts, candles and stickers to household items. The gentleman in the shop says that it's his friend that designs it all and many of the merchandise are made in Japan and shipped here with exceptions of a few products that are made here in Hawaii I just love how each items are crafted and couldn't resist to support the art and picked up a couple of post cards which was just a buck a card at $5 and a bucket hat that had a cute plumeria embroidered on it :) He couldn't be more happy that I enjoyed it all and put my purchases in a lovely reusable tote and even gave me a free gift that was very generous of him to do so shows the love and kindness of what art and the appreciation to express it was just so meaningful. Thank you!

That night as I shopped, Kalani and Maile greeted and welcomed me with their genuine aloha. I could tell how happy they were, both were singing while they were working. I love it when people sing, I feel like they are connecting with the music and their hearts are happy. This store has a bunch of different apparel styles and tastes. I found 2 dresses for work. I got lots of complements the next day at work. In inquired about the Black Friday Sales (even though I was early, Tuesday). No sales were going on but Aunty Maile gave me a gift for my purchase. Super kind of her and much appreciated. I don't often treat myself to dresses and such, but I was so happy I was able to support local. They used to be on the second level, but now they are on the ground floor near Aloha Salads. According to the past comments, this store may be a seasonal store. I'll be back for sure.
