island crush: sea glass studs

beachcombing for the muted organic glow of once glassy shards transformed by their tumble in the ocean waves is one of my favorite things so i instantly smiled upon finding these delightfully minimalist sea glass studs made by pua jewelry.

only a few pairs remain (if that) since stylish treasure hunters quickly claimed their favorites as soon as today's crush hit the pua fb feed. 

$30 (send lauren a love note to order).

island crush: aloha shimmer

i first spotted the lovely isla from so'mace rocking an extra helping of sparkle this summer compliments of one hula girl's aloha tank, and was instantly smitten with its sand dollar "o" and simple shimmer.

happily, the design arrived in ohg's shop just in time for aloha friday and is stocked in sizes small to xl.

$44 online + in-store.

p.s. island stockists include becca beach, global creations & lily lotus.

and the winner is . . .

tiffany from kamuela who will be styling on the big island in ginger13's gorgeous puka pendant.

the minimalist design wooed many hearts but seems to have been retired . . . alas.

a possible silver lining: ginger13's fall collection is about to debut so perhaps all my lovely readers who sent in their hellos will be consoled knowing that remaining spring & summer styles can now be yours for 25-to-30% off.

happy congratulations tiffany!

{mahalo cindy for sharing a little ginger13 love with the h|h 'ohana!}

island crush: desert isle discs

as a born and raised island girl, it is impossible not to be charmed by the petite engraved discs from jewelry by justine which has been winning the hearts of local lovelies since arriving at owens & co. last month.

beach babe had me at hello but perhaps surfer chic or live aloha is destined to be yours?

offered in gold and silver.

$45 to $60 in-store (email orders welcome).
