The Ultimate Guide to Shopping on O‘ahu:
Whoever Said Money Can’t Buy Happiness Just Didn’t Know Where to Shop
In The Ultimate Guide to Shopping on O‘ahu, fashionista extraordinaire Kathryn Drury Wagner has compiled 200-plus of the best-of-the-best places to shop. These are her top choices for the best styles, selection, and service. This guide covers it all, from the boutiques stocking the gotta-have-it styles of the moment to the classic department store standbys, and everything in between—gifts, maternity wear, shoes, accessories, and even menswear.
Author Wagner refers to her book as “a stylish woman’s full-contact, take-no-prisoners guide to the very best shopping on O‘ahu.” The Ultimate Guide to Shopping on O‘ahu shares the inside scoop on when boutiques put out their new stock, regular sales, parking tips, events and resources. This purse-sized guide will help the die-hard shopper hunt down anything and everything: Need a hard-to-find-size? Refer to the chapter on “Special Sizes.” Have a hankering for some retro style? Check out the “Vintage” chapter for vintage and consignment shops. Fiscally- or fashion-challenged? “I Need A Fashion Fix!” will help you style creatively for less.
Kathryn Drury Wagner is the executive editor of HONOLULU Magazine, where she has covered the style beat for five years. She also served as editor of Ala Moana Shopping Center Magazine for two years. A self-described “lifelong clothes horse,” Wagner is always on the look out for the most stylish looks at the best bargains.
