I have been a couple times. So many cute things from home decor to clothing. Recently bought this…read morecute crop top at half off which was a steal. Otherwise this place is expensive but quality of items are top notch. I always say to splurge on good quality versus spend more on cheaper things to only have to replace them more often. I will say the last time I came into the store, it was quite annoying that a dog was barking quite a bit and then a comment from another customer or friend of the owner not sure. But I definitely ignored the rude remark. I just wanted to do my shopping in peace.

The shopkeeper was so kind and welcoming, and even if you're not in the mood to splurge, it's worth browsing because everything is so beautifully displayed. The prices are definitely steep, but the quality is definitely there. Great for gifts, a little treat-yourself moment, or just inspiration.

The dress is a size SMALL and looks like I was wearing an XXLG. It looked ridiculous. I called to ask if I could exchange for an XS and was told NO. Please note that this dress will be sitting in my DO NOT WEAR pile and I am sad to state that I will not ever purchase anything from your store. Yes I understand ALL SALES FINAL, I want the dress but just a smaller size. How difficult can this request be?

Shopping in Kailua, Oahu, Hawaii…read more.. Lexbreezy had a super long line of customers at the Made In Hawaii Festival a few months ago. I've seen the Instagram posts of their clothing, but never had a chance to look upclose at the styles and fabrics. We were going to lunch in Kailua - next door at the new Oh My Grill - and noticed that Lexbreezy is right here! Wow! With free parking, it's so easy to stop by after a meal. Unfortunately, we took too long to eat and Lexbreezy was closed. I drove back to Kailua and got a chance to look around the cute shop! I liked the prints, but didn't care for the styles. For example, rompers are too inconvenient for me to wear. I'll stop by in a few months and check the merchandise. Maybe new items will come out for the holidays... I noticed a dressing room - it will come in handy since there might not be any returns/exchanges accepted.

She made me feel very welcome and I enjoyed and loved my experience with her. She constantly checked on me and offered pieces I didn't think I would like. She really exemplified awesome customer service. She and the other gal working were very nice. I was very happy with my experience and also that I was able to find items that I liked and fit well. I was excitedn to find a few things to purchase. They do have a good selection of merchandise as well. Some items are a little pricey but I found that they are worth the quality. I would definitely return to this location. Fighting Eel has the best employees!

Channeling Marie Kondo…read more.. Every item does have a memory tied to it and is very difficult to let go though I've been making new memories and have been filtering some items that have no use especially when it's been tucked away for year without knowing it was there I know it was time to downsize. Many items in my opinion is in great condition as is still deeply loved know that it will still be enjoyed by someone else will let it go and love to take it to several drop off location so that it's not taken to the landfill which is actually the saddest thing in my onion. This Salvation Army location in Kailua is quite massive and my favorite place to browse, very organized and with probably one of the largest selection of furniture is found here it's a great place to search for that find. Parking though is the worse as there's just a few stalls and for shoppers that's doing the hard search I found it impossible to wait for a stall as I just double parked after placing my donation in the bin provided right outside I walked in for quick browse but decided not to search too hard to only to return items back home lol! Great place with lots of find...come see here! Thank you!

After…read morevisiting the Punahou and Kailua store throughout the year, I finally found two tops that I immediately fell in love with. The staff were friendly and helpful and the store was clean. Seemed like they had several sizes available in all their merchandise which is great. Their dressing rooms are spaced nicely and they have several. They have ample parking spaces out in front of the store.

Manuheali'i has for a long time been the go to location for myself and my colleagues, in fact, our…read morecoaching staff went with matching Manuhealii prints for almost a decade. For me, the two main reasons to buy Manuheali'i. First, their clothes is often made with a thinner material which is both comfortable and practical, especially during the summer. Business attire or dining out looks better when you're not sweating in your thick cotton aloha shirt. Second, their prices used to be just a tad lower than a lot of the other high end Hawaiian fashion designers. But that seems to be changing. It's going to be more difficult for Hawaiians to wear Hawaiian wear if the prices continue to increase but if you're looking for something professional, fancy, and comfortable, this is probably one of the best brands to go with.

Shopping in Kailua, O'ahu, Hawai'i…read more.. Strolling along the sidewalk, I passed by Aloha Kira and did a double take. I saw Miffy on the top shelf of this store. I had to go in and ask... "Is this store related to the one in Waikiki?" Yes! This is the sister store of Kira x Miffy at the Royal Hawaiian Center! Of course, we had to look at all of the Miffy merchandise... fanny packs, hair clips, stickers, caps, plushies, etc. Other items featured Hello Kitty, Kuromi, My Melody, Snoopy, and more! There were pet gifts and a children's corner! The decor was cute and bright! Service was cheerful and attentive! We'll be back because this shop is more convenient than Waikiki! Plus... there's free parking behind the building!

Everytime we go in, they are sure to give Lando so much love and treats. When I try on clothes, the girls here even offer to hold Lando when I'm in the dressing room. Lando will pull me to Aloha Kira everytime we're in the area- he loves the cute dog sections with dog toys and bandanas. The curation of all the stuff here is immaculate - exactly my style! My biggest weakness is baggu bags- and they always have all the newest styles and colors. I will always check Aloha Kira before buying it online and avoid the shipping costs and wait. The selection here rotates so they always have the newest trends- from dresses, matching sets, and I love getting sunglasses from here. If you're looking for a gift for the "it girl" in your life, Aloha Kira is the shop to check out! It's a good price range, especially for gifts!

Their clothing are beautiful though those weren't my vibe the staff there are very nice and helpful while I browse around enjoying it all. Parking is available in the back which is free though is sharing with a few other tenants along with restrooms but I do prefer street parking as it's a quick and short walk to my retail therapy and a joy to support these wonderful small and local biz.
