10 Ways To Layer Like a Local This Fall
Get fall-ready with cozy outerwear from Hawai‘i designers.
What can I say, I’m a weather wimp. Like a lot of Islanders, years of tropical conditioning haven’t done me any favors in the hardiness department—anything below 70 degrees and I’m diving for a blanket.
So, when October rolls around, that’s my cue to start loading up on layers. Nothing too heavy, of course, lest that Kona weather creep back up. Just stylish, lightweight pieces designed to add a little on the top.
Scroll down for a roundup of great locally designed sweaters, jackets and sweatshirts for guys and gals.
