A|X Armani Exchange is celebrating two grand reopenings this week. The first took place Oct. 11, when the Ala Moana Center store marked the occasion with a traditional Hawaiian blessing after remodeling to update floor and fixtures for a sleeker stone and stainless steel look.

Then on Oct. 13, the public is invited to the new A|X Armani Exchange Waikiki store, which will host a grand opening celebration to mark its move to the Waikiki Shopping Plaza at 2250 Kalakaua Ave. The event takes place from 7 to 11 p.m. with DJ, cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, a photo booth and an opportunity to win a $1,000 shopping spree.

In addition, every guest that makes a purchase that evening will receive a limited edition A|X Waikiki T-shirt. Following the event, those who make purchases of more than $100 will receive a limited edition T-shirt while supplies last.

The layout's the same at A/X Armani Exchange at Ala Moana Center, but the fixtures have been updated with sleek stainless steel and glass, and below, a gleaming new floor.

You'll also find a lot of fur accessories, ranging from purses to scarves to lined trapper hats.

Clean and classic for the guys.

Japan wears: Fur



Rae Huo photos


Hawaii-based photographer Rae Huo is on the road again and sent back these photos from Japan documented the fur trend there.

"Fur is everywhere," Rae reports and, being a photographer, her favorite pieces are the faux fur animal gloves. "Can you see me holding my camera with them on!" she wrote.

This has nothing to do with fur, but one day last year Rae came over to my house and took this series of photos of one of my birds enjoying his bath:
