Hula Skirt

Summer parties can have a lot of different themes or no theme at all. A fun one that reminds everyone that the season of the sun is here is the Hawaiian party. Since many people have tropical theme backyards already, a Hawaiian party is a natural choice for summer get togethers. Luau parties aren’t anything new. In fact, to a degree, they’re pretty retro. The Hawaiian theme was popular following Hawaii’s entrance into the United States in 1959. Most forget that Hawaii has only been a state for a short time, but that is beside the point. The youngest state in Union inspired a sort of tiki frenzy in the 1960s where bamboo wall cover and tall Mai Tais were all the rage. Why don’t you take you home back to a gentler time? Have a retro style Hawaiian Party complete with leis, tiki torches, coconut bras and more. Don’t forget to stock up on the coconut rum for an extra sweet time.

After you’ve consumed a few drinks accessorized with those cute little umbrellas sit back and enjoy your time in the warm sun of Summer. The season is all about spending time outdoors with friends and family, just relax and pretend that you’ve taken a tropical vacation. Maybe when the economy gets better you can take a real one, but until then enjoy the simple life and indulge your sense of fantasy! You can almost feel that humid warm breeze coming off the ocean…hold a shell up to your ear after you have another drink-you may hear the waves crashing on the shore…
