Hawaiian Airlines' Fashion Friday Event

This past Friday, Hawaiian Airlines held their very first Fashion Friday, an exclusive event for their World Elite MasterCard cardholders.

An estimated 300 guests sipped on cocktails and savored small bites while shopping from local businesses who set up booths at Hawaiian Airlines' Corporate Headquarters.

It was a great way to connect the community with the people behind their favorite shops.

The event provided such a convenient, one-stop-shopping venue, allowing guests to purchase products without having to travel all over the island to different stores, and to actually be able to see items in person from shops that only offer their products online or at special events.

Some of the items available at Fashion Friday included:

Jewelry from B.D'Angelo

Rings from Kira Hawaii

Colorful activewear from Mahiku Activewear

Hawaiian wear from Manuheali`i

Wooden signs from Noho Designs

Beautiful accessories from Katrina Cordova

The cutest pineapple onesie from Sticks and Stones

Postcards and stickers from Lucky We Live Hawaii

Adorable totes from Happy Town Hawaii

Swimwear from Honey Girl Water Wear

Pretty patterned attire from Language of the Birds

Cute & practical luggage tags from Matsumoto Studio

Super cute pouches from Fighting Eel

Yummy chocolates from Choco Le`a Hawaii

I met some of my girlfriends there, and it was a really fun night of mingling and shopping. I saw so many friends at the event that I have not seen in years, and I loved seeing so many local businesses showcasing their wares, including products that were yet to launch in-store.

I was already familiar with several of the vendors at Hawaiian Airlines' Fashion Friday - for a while now I've been a fan of Fighting Eel's stylish clothing and Happy Town Hawaii's adorable totes, but there were some businesses I was introduced to for the first time.  Thanks to Fashion Friday, I now know where to get beautiful cuffs (B.D'Angelo), chic home decor (NOHO Designs), and succulents to add some greenery to my home office (Paiko)

Hawaiian Airlines' Fashion Friday event was a really nice way to spend an evening, and it was great to see Hawaiian Airlines - one of the state's largest companies, show their support to the local businesses and thank their World Elite MasterCard cardholders through such an event.

I hope Hawaiian Airlines offers more events like this in the future!
