Muse Kailua

Do you dream of having a vacation cottage with a beachy Hawaiian theme with a touch vintage flare...well Muse Kailua has that in the tiniest shop in Kailua.As a shell lover there was so much here that I loved that I've never seen anywhere else. Everything from clothing to jewelry, accessories, cards, trinkets and the cutest decor. I fell in love with a whale plate but went with a cup which can double as a bowl that I plan to use as a gift for a whale lover...gosh it's so cute!!!I absolutely love finding this somewhat hidden gem that's filled with so much selective treasures with the loveliest staff so patient and kind to compliment every choice you make.Support local, support small and follow them on Instagram @muse_kailua and their online shop https://www.musekailua.com and see the calm this Kailua boutique has to offer.Thank you!

I have many dream homes. My first dream home is a 3-story haunted Victorian Mansion with a large wrap-around porch and wrought-iron fence outside. It would also have a large forest in the back with a small babbling stream running through it. The atmosphere would be a dark, dreary, foggy and rainy place. If you think I'm kidding, I am not. My second dream home would be another 3-story non-haunted Victorian Mansion with an airy porch with flowers all over the place, and the interior would be decorated with stuff from this store: Muse Kailua. I know non-haunted Victorian Mansions do not appear very oceany but who cares! I love the stuff in here and you could probably incorporate a lot of their stuff with your current decor. My current decor is shabby messiness with a hodge-podge of clutter, mess, papers strewn about, Halloween decorations out all-year-long, paper receipts piling up in boxes, dried hibiscus seed pods cluttering up the counter and a pile of (fake) skeletons on the living room floor. No, again I am not kidding.Aside from this foolish decor in my house, the stuff in here is the stuff I dream about: a clean, uncluttered home, airy windows with white billowy curtains, home smelling like fresh lemons and decor from Muse Kaiula: seashells, floral plates, tropical oceany goodness, whimsical lovely items and dream-like girlyness. If you are into Victorian, girliness, girly girl, mermaids, ocean, tropical, and ooh-la-la this is your place, and you're in luck if you're on the mainland because now they have their online store open!!Return factor: OF COURSE are you kidding??? Coz I'm not.

Super cute little boutique in Kailua! I stumbled in after the night market and fell in love!They have some cute clothes, beachy home decor and jewelry from local artist!Owner is so, so sweet and helpful but not "pushy". She allows you to shop and loves to visit with her client.I always support local shops before large box or chains and I'm so glad I found a nee place to purchase gifts for friends and family I was in love with the ring the shop owner was wearing and came home with one for myself!

What a cute little shop (and I do mean little)! This place is packed with adorable gift and home decor items. Perfect if you are looking for the white/light blue beach look in your house. There was a lot of jewelry (made by local artists) anywhere from $30 to the hundreds. There were amazing hand-carved rings made out of gold. I saw clothes in a few areas as well, a small changing room is tucked into a corner with a shower curtain. The owner is super helpful and knowledgeable about the products she carries. I popped in this morning after going to the Aloha Home Market just across the alley way. Unfortunately it was impossible to socially distance when in this store due to the layout and how many people were in the store at once. Thankfully they are mandating masks inside and have hand sanitizer available in the store entrance.

So I stumbled upon this store as I was walking to the market nearby that just so happened to be cancelled because of the weather. I walked in to ask the girl if I was in the right place and she confirmed that I was and the event had been cancelled. She was sweet so I stayed and toured around this little seashell boutique. It's practically seashell heaven. So if you want a beach themed guest room or bathroom, this place should be one of your stops! It's right by Cinnamons restaurant.

I love this local boutique because the owner is so kind. I have a pair of white linen pants that I bought over two years ago...they are in mint condition. She carries cute clothes and small trinkets. Love this shop!
