MICHAEL KORS AT ALA MOANA

Although fashion and lifestyle designer Michael Kors only became a pop culture icon as a judge on "Project Runway," he has been a prominent American designer since 1981.

Now Kors is opening his first Hawai'i lifestyle store in Ala Moana Center. The 3,000-square-foot store will carry a full range of accessories from all the collections of all the companies that carry his name: Michael Kors, KORS Michael Kors, and MICHAEL Michael Kors. There will also be a selection of ready-to-wear pieces, as well as his licensed products, which include fragrance and eyewear.

MOONBOW TROPICS IN WAIKIKI

It's nice to see a local family-owned business with a prominent presence in Waikiki. Alan Jay and his family, who hail from Maui, just opened a 2,000-square-foot store in the newly refurbished Outrigger Reef on the Beach. It's the new Moonbow Tropics, known by locals and visitors alike for its combination of cutting-edge designers such as Nic + Zoe, XCVI and Nat Nast, as well as its extensive collection of aloha shirts from the likes of Kahala, Tori Richard, Kamehameha, Kalakaua and Paradise Found.

A family-run business since 1995, four generations of Jays have done everything from day-to-day operations to building native Hawaiian wood fixtures to hand-making jewelry. "Each item we carry has a unique story to tell, such as authentic Hawaiian shirt labels from the 1930s, '40s and '50s, or a hand-set gemstone necklace — this is what sets our store apart," said Jay.

ON OUR RADAR

MAGIC WITH METALS

KyungChan Paik of Seoul, South Korea, is a well-known artist in his native country. A professor of metalwork and jewelry at the College of Fine Arts, Seoul National University, he has shown his creative work throughout South Korea and in Europe. He chose Honolulu as his first foray into the United States because "Hawai'i is a bridge from East to West," he said. The current works being shown here are 100 of his "Wiggly Cubes" collection and several "Dancing Pins," which have nearly sold out.

The cube collection is sterling silver, matte finish with a rich brushed texture. With it he has fashioned brooches, earrings and pendants, as well as charming candle holders, dramatic vessels, sake-size drinking cups and elegant fragrance bottles. They are truly art to wear and art to use.

Today is the last day you can see this exqusite original work. The show will travel from Honolulu to Washington, D.C., this weekend. Find it from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. in Yi's Creations, 725 Kapi'olani Blvd., Imperial Plaza C-107. Prices for the cube jewelry range from $156 to $325, while the Dancing Pins are $325.
