Nā Manaʻo Mākua: Kūʻai Lole Kula I Hauʻoli nā kānaka a pau

na Jennifer Shakeel

ʻO ia ka manawa o ka makahiki. Ke hoʻomākaukau nei nā kānaka a pau no ke kula. Hoʻouna ʻia nā papa manawa, nā papa inoa o nā lako kula a ʻae, nā lole kula. Inā like kāu keiki/keiki me aʻu, ʻo kēlā me kēia kau ke ʻano he kanaka hou. Aloha ʻoe i ka nānā ʻana i ke kaikamahine pipi komohana, a me ke kanaka ʻōpio ʻaʻahu maikaʻi… ua loaʻa iā mākou nā keiki rocker no ke kumu i kūʻai ai au i kahi pahu hoʻopakele Thredup e hoʻokō i kā lākou mau lole lole.

ʻOiaʻiʻo ua lawe mai kēia i kekahi mau pilikia e pili ana i nā mea lole. No laila i ka hoʻāʻo ʻole e hoʻopaʻa i ko lākou pono e lilo i poʻe hoʻokahi, ua loaʻa iaʻu kekahi mau manaʻo. ʻAʻole wau e haʻi aku iā ʻoe e hana pū lākou me ʻoe a me kāu mau keiki, akā ʻo kēia ka mea e hana nei i loko o ko mākou hale…

Manaʻo Kōkua ʻEkahi: Hanu
Nui nā manawa i loko o ke ola o kā mākou mau keiki e neʻe ai lākou i ke kūʻokoʻa. ʻO ka manawa mua a lākou e makemake ai e nakinaki i ko lākou mau kāmaʻa ponoʻī, e koho i kā lākou mau lole ponoʻī… e ʻoki i kā lākou meaʻai iā lākou iho. ʻO mākou a pau e hāʻule i loko o ka manawa mua a mākou e lohe ai, "Hiki iaʻu ke hana iaʻu iho." Hanu. ʻO ka hoʻololi ʻana i kā lākou persona ma waho kekahi o kēlā mau manawa ke makemake lākou e hōʻoia i hiki iā lākou ke hana iā lākou iho. Hanu wale, hele mākou a pau i nā pae.

Manaʻo kōkua ʻelua: E hoʻomaopopo ʻo wai kāu keiki a kamaʻilio pū me lākou
ʻO kā mākou mea kahiko ke kaumaha i ka wā rocker. Pono ʻo ia e hele i kahi hapa o ke kauwela me kekahi mau hoaaloha ma ke kūlanakauhale nui. ʻO ka mea maʻamau, ua ʻohi ʻo ia i kekahi mau mea mai kēlā mau hoaaloha… e like me ke ʻano a me ke ʻano lole. ʻO ke ʻano a mākou e hoʻokomo wikiwiki ai, akā ʻo ke ʻano o nā lole… ʻae, ʻaʻole ʻae ʻia i loko o ko mākou hale. Me kaʻu kāne i ka pau ʻana o ka ʻaʻahu a me aʻu e uē ana i nā manawa a pau a kā mākou kaikamahine e puka mai ai i waho o kona lumi, pono mākou e huki i kahi laina, a kamaʻilio iki.

Maopopo iaʻu i kona wahi i ke ola. Hoʻomaopopo wau i ka pono e lilo i kanaka ponoʻī iā ʻoe a makemake e hoʻohālike i kahi mea āu e pili kokoke ai. Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole au i manaʻoʻiʻo he pono nā kaikamahine he 15 makahiki e hōʻike aku i nā mea a pau i loaʻa iā lākou e "ʻano" a ʻo ia ka mea e pono ai mākou e wehewehe i kā mākou kaikamahine. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hana i ka nānā ʻana i ka rocker holoʻokoʻa me ka ʻole e hōʻike i kēlā me kēia pihi āu.

Manaʻo Manaʻo ʻEkolu: Kūlike
ʻAe, he mea nani ke kuʻikahi. ʻO ka ʻaelike a mākou i hana ai me kā mākou mau keiki i kēia makahiki ʻo ia ke hele mākou e kūʻai i nā lole kula, pono lākou e hoʻāʻo i nā mea āpau a hōʻike mai iā mākou… ʻAʻole pono mākou makemake i nā lole, a he kuleana ko lākou e kūkākūkā i nā mea a mākou i ʻōlelo ai ʻaʻole, akā pono lākou e hāʻawi i kahi hoʻopaʻapaʻa maikaʻi loa.

Loaʻa iā mākou ka nānā ʻana mai kā mākou keikikāne, akā ʻike kā mākou kaikamahine. Loaʻa iā ia nā lole e hauʻoli ai, kūʻai mākou ma ke ʻano i manaʻo ʻo ia ua koho ʻo ia i ka hapa nui o nā lole, a maikaʻi loa lākou iā ia. Ua hoʻoholo kā mākou keiki e hele me ka "rocker" no ka mea ʻaʻole hiki ke "gangsta".

Manaʻo Manaʻo ʻEhā: E aʻo iā lākou e lilo i Beacon
He mea maikaʻi loa kaʻu kāne; pono mākou e aʻo i kā mākou mau keiki e lilo i alakaʻi ʻaʻole ka mea hahai. Ua noho ʻo ia a kamaʻilio me kā mākou poʻe mua i kēlā lā aʻe a wehewehe iā ia he pono ʻo ia e huli i kāna mau hoaaloha no ka ʻōlelo aʻo. Pono ʻo ia e ʻike ʻia ma ke ʻano he kumu hoʻohālike o ke ʻano, ka trendsetter. E hauʻoli ʻoe me kona ʻano he kanaka a e ola i kēlā kanaka… mai hoʻonele i ka manawa e hoʻāʻo ai e lilo i mea ʻē aʻe… no ka mea ʻokoʻa ʻoe.

Ua ʻike mākou he paʻakikī paha ka paʻakikī o nā hoa. Ke makemake nei kā mākou mau keiki e komo i loko, e lilo i ʻāpana o kahi hui, i loko o ko mākou hale ʻoiai mākou e paipai iā lākou e hana i kā lākou hui ponoʻī.

Manaʻo Manaʻo ʻElima: E hoʻomaopopo he lole wale nō
ʻOiai ʻaʻole ʻaʻahu kāu mau keiki i ka leka uila a i ʻole nā ​​lole āu e ʻike ai i kahi kaikamahine hana i ka wā e hoʻolei ʻia ana ʻo ia i loko o kahi kaʻa hui… he lole wale nō lākou. Inā pono, e loaʻa i kekahi mau mea a lākou i ʻike e ʻaʻahu ʻia ke hele lākou i waho me ʻoe. Mai hana i kēlā mau mea "ʻaʻole iā lākou" i huhū lākou iā ʻoe no ia mea. E ʻimi i ka mea hauʻoli, ʻo ka pālule iwi poʻo a me nā iwi keʻa ma lalo nā pālule ʻili makamae no nā kāne me nā jeans ʻeleʻele.

Manaʻo Manaʻo ʻeono: E hana i lā e pili ana iā lākou
Paipai au e hele e kūʻai i nā lole kula me kāu mau keiki. He mau hoaaloha koʻu inā hiki i kā lākou keiki i kekahi mau makahiki, hāʻawi wale lākou iā lākou i ke kāleka hōʻaiʻē a haʻi iā lākou e hele. ʻAʻole ma ʻaneʻi, inā ʻoe e hana pēlā, a laila, mai hoʻopiʻi i ka mea a lākou e hoʻi mai ai i ka home.

Hana ia i lā hoʻopaʻa. Inā ʻoi aku kāu keiki ma mua o hoʻokahi, e hoʻāʻo e hāʻawi iā lākou i kēlā me kēia lā kahi e hopu ai ʻoe i ka ʻaina awakea a hana i kahi kūʻai a me ke kau ʻana. E leʻaleʻa iā ʻolua. ʻOiai ʻo ia ka mea e kau ai ʻoe i kou lauoho i kahi huelo pony, e hoʻolei i nā flops, a ʻoki i ka jeans a me ka pālule… ʻaʻohe mea e hoʻohilahila ai iā lākou. E noho mālie me kāu keiki.

Manaʻo kōkua ʻehiku: E ʻike i kahi e hele ai
Ma waho o kāu kālā no ke kūʻai ʻana i nā lole kula, aia nā hale kūʻai i hoʻolālā maoli ʻia e kūpono i nā ʻano like ʻole. E hana maikaʻi ana ka poʻe rocker chics (a me nā kāne) ma nā wahi e like me "Hot Topic," "Rue 21," a me "JC Penney's."

ʻO ka poʻe ʻaʻahu maikaʻi e makemake iā Elder Berman, Macy's a me Gap. Loaʻa i nā ʻōpio leʻaleʻa ʻo Aeropastle, Hollister, PacSun a me nā mea ʻē aʻe. Aia nō nā superstores. Me he mea lā he retro loa ka pahuhopu i kēia manawa; E ʻōlelo wau i ka hopena o 60's early 70's. ʻO WalMart he mea hauʻoli ia; loaʻa iā lākou kekahi mea no ka nui o nā ʻano. Aia kekahi Meijer; ʻAʻole maopopo iaʻu ka mea e kapa ai i nā ʻano i loaʻa iā lākou ma laila. ʻO ka manaʻo, inā makemake kāu keiki e hele i Goth… ʻAʻole ʻo Gap kahi e kūʻai ai.

He mea leʻaleʻa loa ke kūʻai ʻana i nā lole kula, inā ʻoe e hele i loko me ke ʻano kūpono.

Kawaihae
He mea kākau ʻo Jennifer Shakeel a he kahu hānai ma mua o 12 mau makahiki o ka ʻike olakino. Ma ke ʻano he makuahine o nā keiki maikaʻi ʻelua me hoʻokahi ma ke ala, eia wau e haʻi aku iā ʻoe i nā mea aʻu i aʻo ai e pili ana i ka makua a me nā hauʻoli a me nā loli i ka wā hāpai. Hiki iā mākou ke ʻakaʻaka a uē a hauʻoli i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo he mau makuahine mākou!
