ma honolulu
Oct 31 
one of my favorite stops on this last visit was to ma honolulu which carries a nice mix of clothing and accessories from emerging designers from hawaii and around the world. there is a lot of cool stuff stocked (like modern amusement with its ubiquitous birdie logo) that you don't typically find in the islands, and, after leisurely wandering around the shop, i succumbed to temptation and snapped up the super cute and very versatile chemise tank by wings hawaii.
hopefully, you are lucky enough to visit while the owner tomoko is at the store since she is one of the nicest shopkeepers around. in fact, i spent almost as much time chatting with tomoko and enjoying her gracious offers of refreshments as i did checking out the goods.
ma is located on kapahulu (adjacent to hee hing) so stop by if you are in the neighborhood and in need of some retail therapy.
