I really love this Tiki Room shirt right down to the awesome hang tag.
I've picked up a few other newer shirts recently.
More vintage shirts.
This shirt only has two tikis, but they're pink, and I couldn't resist it.
This one has a great PNG design.
I have one shirt made of Shaheen fabric, but this was actually produced by Shaheen.
I love that there's little tiki on the sail of the boat.
And I found another pair of swim trunks. They kind of match one of my shirts.

Hmm. Chopping shorts? Maybe next summer. They need a little OxiClean before I even attempt to try them on.

Quick update so I can throw everything into the hamper.
These first two were given to me by ookoo. Much appreciated. 
I found these three dresses yesterday. The last two will require the muumuu clip.
Haven't been finding many shirts lately. Everyone seems to have switched over to selling flannel. Plus, I keep getting pickier all the time. There has to be enough tikis on the shirt, and I really really have to like them, etc.

I like the green/blue/white one above, as well as many others.
Very nice collection.

I just wanted to give the thread a quick update so I could get everything that's hanging around my room into the laundry. I stopped shopping in early December. I've even stayed off of eBay.
These first two were given to me by Bora Boris aka The Enabler. He always says he's not going to buy me any more shirts... Thanks for lying to me, Boris. 
I picked up a nice Toes on the Nose with the Mr. Bali Hai mug and a Spooner with the Trader Vic's logo at an antique store. Not exactly antiques. Fine by me.
I found this on eBay. It was cheap, and I was jonesing for shirts at the time. The moais are cute.
I found this vintage Iolani at a flea market.
I also picked up this vintage dress.
Hopefully, in a few months, I'll be back to my regular shopping routine.

Kate's Kanvasses are among the best Tiki trappings out there. Always a treat, some more here for the LOT!

I was looking for a place to post this, and settled on this thread for two contrived reasons - (a) it's fun to look at Kate's collection of shirts again, and (b) she'd probably love this ad.
I don't understand why these didn't catch on! This is clearly a bunch of hip, trend-setting guys, who would normally set the sartorial standard that others aspire to. And think of the practicality - no more worrying about which pants go with which shirt!

I was reading again on Ooga Mooga today and re-visited Viva Kate which lead me here. I have seen these pages a dozen times but today it doesn't matter, Kate was on my mind it's fun to read her thoughts. What a tremendous collection, you're missed Kate...
