Its hard to believe that Summer is pretty much over in many parts of the country. But that's not the case in some states such as Arizona, California, Nevada, Florida, Texas, Hawaii etc. just to name a few. We are lucky to live in one of those states, I live its pretty much summertime weather year round, we can wear Hawaiian shirts whenever we want to. P.S. if you have not caught on yet, we like the Wave Shoppe brand.
Don't despair, there is good news. The good news is that we have these things called vacations, which are usually taken in warmer, more tropical locations, such as Hawaii or Fiji. Whether you fly or cruise or drive, somewhere on the planet there is a place to wear Hawaiian clothing.
While its on my mind... the guys still need to make sure they wear their shirts correctly, here is a article on how to wear a Hawaiian shirt, follow some of our suggestions and you will avoid having people wondering who dresses you.
As far as threads go for the ladies, you can wear whatever you like. If your going tropical you can elect to wear a dress or even a womens Hawaiian shirt, the choice is yours. So as we say Aloha to Summer we must do so with our heads held high, its always warm somewhere and Summer will return before you know it.

How many different ways can you write about a Hawaiian shirt?
Today I was sitting in my comfy chair enjoying all the sun and warm weather (its 84 degrees today) and contemplating writing a Blog post about Hawaiian shirts and then it dawned on me, how many different ways can you write about a Hawaiian shirt?
I did some Web searches hoping to see what some Island authors have written lately but it appears that most of the writings are just a bunch of gibberish. So I turned my thoughts inward and started looking at the shirt I am currently wearing.
My Hawaiian shirt is an oldie but goodie, I believe its one of the very early shirts produced by Wave Shoppe in Southern California. If I were to describe it I would say that it is light grey in color with splashes of medium grey in the background, burgundy/rust colored foliage, turtles and outrigger canoes.
Now we have the condition of the Hawaiian shirt, in which I should mention is made out of polycotton. I think for a shirt that has been washed at least once a week for the last 6 years that it is in wonderful shape. Sure it has a few lightly frayed edges, especially near the lower hem, its still a cool and comfortable shirt to wear. This garment even has the original coconut buttons!
So there you have it, a post about Hawaiian shirts that’s actually honest as well as original. Penned while
sitting in paradise!
