WHAT’S IN STORE
Boutique keeps it green in Kaimuki
Owners of the newly opened Drift boutique in Kaimuki are asking consumers to think green.
Laura Ivy and Ale Klein have dressed the store in fixtures that are 95 percent recycled in some way or another, including wood floors salvaged from three Oahu homes and a commercial-grade steamer found in a trash pile nearby.
