Time for some (retail) therapy

Bamboo Sky brings special fashion fair to new location

Bamboo Sky's move from Kapiolani Boulevard to Kamakee Street early this year left owners Shane Breeden and Tiffany Young little time for the special events their clientele had come to expect.

Well, sometimes nagging pays off.

The boutique hosts a Summer Fashion Fair from 3 to 7 p.m. Saturday in response to customer requests. Admission is free.

"They told us they loved the Retail Therapy events we had at the old location, and kept asking when the next one would be," Breeden said. "We still have no time -- Tiffany still travels once a month on buying trips, and I still have my other business -- but we made time.
