Stay Cool in Tropical Style


In today’s ever changing fashion world, styles come and go. However, when in comes to a summer time wardrobe one thing has stood the test of time, the Hawaiian shirt. A Hawaiian or properly called an Aloha shirt can be stylish, cool and attractive on a hot summer day. Hawaiian shirts are simply a loose fitting shirt having a straight cut bottom and a full button front. If this was a style good enough for the likes of Tom Selleck, Al Pacino and Elvis you’re running with a darn good crowd.

If you want to stay cool in this summer’s heat then its time to try an Aloha shirt. These shirts are comfortable and will keep you cool. The shirts are popular among all ages, it’s the colors and prints that usually tell the age. Earlier Hawaiian shirts were made of silk and rayon. But today cotton has become very popular as well as some newer “green materials” like bamboo. Hawaiian shirts come in as many colors and prints as sands on the beach at Waikiki.

Enough said and enough of a history lesson, get comfortable, grab that Aloha shirt from the closet,"you say closet's empty" slide into those flip flops, get that margarita and kick back and think of someplace cooool.
