Mom deserves something high-quality and handmade with love and aloha for Mothers Day. So we rounded up ten ideas for Wings Hawaii pieces that would make beautiful, thoughtful heirloom pieces.

We’ve grown up (kind of) and so have our designs. A more elevated version of our humble beginnings, these tops are still made with vintage aloha fabric, and feature wide, flattering ties with an open back. A blast from the past, but made timeless.

If you’re looking for the best Maui boutiques and authentic made-in-Hawaii items, Paia is a must-visit. Definitely plan a Paia shopping day if you’re looking to skip the same-old touristy stuff sold at the Maui mega-resorts.
