Hilo Hattie's saved from chapter 11
 
Bought by Maui Divers who operate jewelry concessions inside Hilo Hattie's.

I wouldn't have known this except I love the silk dress I bought there in May and was searching for their website so I could order another. Hope they have their website up soon!

This story in the Star Bulletin. I wish I was there to go shopping at the sale.

Ronda what's funny is when this topic appears in the new topics section it reads like:

"Hilo Hattie's saved from chapter 11 by Ronda"

Just seemed amusing to me. ALways liked browsing through HIlo Hatties.

Good news. Going to Hilo Hatties is one of my rainy day options when in Hawaii.

I love Hilo Hatties too.

Gee, Rhonda, thanks for saving them from chapter 11..... lol!

WOW, you mean I OWN THE STORE! I'm a sucker for a sale; tempted to book a round trip just to go shopping!

Anyone know of another company that sells similar clothing? I like the raw silk women's clothing. I think it's raw silk. Heavier than a silk blouse, but no rough texture.

Oh I'm glad Hilo Hatties will be saved, and I love Maui Divers jewelry!

That's great - I love that place for buying souvenirs.

volcanogirl: You can find the same souvenirs (and many more things) for half the price at the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet.

Really, elk? That's awesome. Which island is that on?

elkhound Jun 16th, 2009 12:54 PM

volcanogirl: It's in Honolulu.
