trader vic's pjs

Pages: 1 15 replies

on International Tiki Day this year I took a field trip to Bloomingdales here in New York and what did I find but these awesome Trader Vic's Outrigger "inspired" pajamas. They are sold under the name "Josie" a sub brand of "Natori" for all you lingiere fans. Refer to Bot pg #88 for graphics, did someone buy the rights or what...I love them no matter what and wear them practically all the time. But I am curious too!

They had a couple of styles and color variations. But I liked these the best. If any of you Wahinies like what you see, and can't live without...let me know I'll check out the big B and see what I can get.

Have you seen the Boxer Shorts that Tiki Farm is carrying ??? Arrrrr! (for those with no NYC a/c! arrrrrr!)

These PJs are so fun!! I picked up my pair at Nordstrom this weekend when in Chicago for Exotica - perfect purchase for a great Tiki Weekend.
Thanks for the tip, which allowed me to get mine, rather than just finding out about it later and wishing I had them :)

Ha ha!! I roomed with Humuhumu at Exotica, and she tells me when we get to our room, "I got the cutest pajamas!"
"Oh!" I interrupted, "the Trader Vic's ones from Nordstroms?! I love them, too!"
She got the white and I got the red. We were the happenest roomies at the Marriot!!
(Ok, yeah, pricey for pj's, but some things are waaaay to cool to pass up!!)

Yes, these pjs are the greatest! I just have the bottoms, they didn't have the top where I bought mine, I'll have to look for it. As Formikahini sez, mine are white. I wish they looked as cute on me as they do on Formikahini & Inky. :( They're quite comfortable, and give me rum-soaked dreams: Formikahini reported that at night in my sleep while wearing these, I made "kitten noises".

So funny...Like minds!!!!! can you imagine if I would have went to Exotica too? It would have been scary!

Last weekend I was staying at a friends house, and one day , he's like "We'll go down to the store as soon as you change out of your pjs" I was like, "I not changing, dude, I can't take them off!"

I luv them too! I am still curious as to if anybody at TV was involved.

Did somebody say, "Tiki Pajama Party"?

Next major Tiki event, let's make sure that's in the schedule!! Ouija boards! Twister! Pillow figh-

wait a minute. This is starting to sound like porn movie.

Let's settle for a group foto with the TV PJ's, ok?

Only if Bamboo brings his boxers!

Inky - check your private messages! There's one from me!

Got it.... I am gonna go check Bloomies at lunch today!

Anyone see these online? We aren't lucky enough to have a Bloomingdale's here in Detroit?

I was just about to ask if there was a Bloomingdales in Detroit. DAMN!
How about Buffalo NY? That's not too far from here...

Tikifish - Try calling a Nordstrom store - they will find a store that has it & ship it. Shipping is free in the U.S. - not sure about Canada - Good Luck!!!

Yes, Nordstrom's rocks in that way, they shipped my size from another store (that no shipping is the greatest!) and I had it the next day. I was amazed. I tried searching online for them in the hopes of scoring the mandarin top in white (I had no idea there was a matching top until I saw Formikahini's), with no luck. Nordy's will be the way to go.

No Boxers for Bamboo! Mrs. Boo wouldn't have it!

But, look for the "hand painted" limited edition Bamboo Suits, etc. coming to a event near you!(or, the next event we can make it to!)

Inky, what are those things hanging on your wall??? (tiki plates???)

I collect souvenir plates, but outside of typical ones of hawaii, I've only got one Tiki plate (well its a trivet, actually).
