aloha… my friends call me “g”. i’m a designer living the dream & creating my heart out in anahola (translates to "birth"), the beautiful, old school, mystical Hawaiian village on the sacred island of Kaua'i… leilei aloha, “wearing leis of love”, is a reminder of those simpler moments when we’ve lost all traces of time, collecting sea shells by the shore, drunk with the scent of pikake, the way the trade winds pick you up & out of the blue, skipping along the hot sand with toasty toes, the taste of salty seas, perfectly tan bums…. leilei aloha is for all those sea-ward bound wayfarers that love simple, classic styles that never get old and wear beautifully always, just like the islands…
inspired by vintage treasures found following my bliss, leilei aloha is about the love of the seas, the land, all of earth’s precious living creatures… everything is made with this love in mind. leilei’s treasures are truly sustainable, made with vintage, recycled or the most eco-friendly of materials available…. please come visit me often here or at my shop… perhaps you will walk away with something that reminds you of the simpler days of the past, brings you so much joy in the present & made to withstand the future…. i will be waiting for you at my ha’ le while gathering leis of love…
