Trend Talk
If you read my most recent blog post, I’m sure you could sense my apprehension in regards to kitschy Hawaiian print and Aloha shirts. This trend (using this word lightly as Aloha shirts have been a staple in Hawaii for almost 100 years) has been making a comeback in modern fashion, with people sporting vintage Aloha shirts or brands producing modern garments in nostalgic Hawaiian prints.
As with all apparel, the success and popularity of clothing depends on how it’s styled and the confidence of the person wearing it. Just look at Marilyn Monroe and her potato sack dress! While I was originally uncertain about these bold and bright patterns, I took a look at how some of my favorite Instagram gals styled their Hawaiian items, and I’ve been loving their looks!
Let me know what you think of their outfits! Do you see yourself adding Hawaiian print, or maybe an Aloha shirt, to your closet anytime soon?
