Ok this is the last Hawaii themed post...I promise! :)
Every time we go to Hawaii, there are a few things I absolutely HAVE to get while we are there. Sure, you can get all of these things online but getting them while in the Hawaii is much more fun.
You will always see these things in my suitcase upon arriving home...
Li Hing Anything - Li Hing powder is a salty, sweet red powder made from dried plums, sweetener and salt. It is usually sprinkled on dried fruits or gummy candies. It's hard to explain the taste but it's addicting and I always have to pick up something while in Hawaii. This year we got some gummies (bears and worms - sweet!) and I had a couple li hing margaritas (amazing).
Pakahola Bikinis - I have already told you guys about my love for Pakaloha and even though I can order them online, I love going into the little store in Lahaina (Maui) and getting them there. I mean check out this selection - it really is bikini heaven.
They have tons of different top styles and bottom styles and you can mix and match however you please. I got coral and mint and actually wore opposite tops and bottoms instead of wearing one color. I love the "cinged" or ruched bottoms...they are super flattering - especially if you have a butt!
Sanuks - So there are plenty of places to buy Sanuks in Cali but there is a cute Sanuk store in Lahaina that we always have to go into. They always have a couple styles you can't find anywhere else. This haul, I found a cute pair of Zebra Yoga Mat flip flops. I was about to get them when I saw they had a kids version that had pink undersides and were $15 cheaper. Thanks to my ever changing foot size that seems to shrink and grow depending on the size available, I ended up fitting into a pair. Yay!
Cute right??
Island Girl Nail Polish - This is a guilty pleasure of mine. In the ABC stores in Hawaii, they always have a shelf with Island Girl Nail Polish which is this
Maui Browning Babe - I told you guys about this before too but this stuff is honestly amazing. It always comes home with us. I saw there is a daily lotion that I might have to get...especially if it smells like the after sun lotion that I am addicted to!
I have only been to hawaii once and it was short but now u are making me want to go again! ahh the malasadas were amazing! try those if u get a chance :)
