Hawaiian pouches that pack a (tropical) punch.

Associate Editor Jacinthe Dupuis brings back splash-proof pouches and tip-top organizational skills.

“My key to a smooth trip? Pouches. I have one for toiletries (leakproof, because I learn from my mistakes), one for the gym, one for the outdoors, and so on. In Maui, I came across these Tyvek pouches from Aloha Collection. Founders Rachael Leina’ala and Heather Aiu are surfers from Hawaii currently living in California and their organizational talents are my latest #lifegoals. They have created totes of all sizes, in striped, pastel palm tree or pineapple patterns, for stowing damp items so you can get from sea to airplane without bringing the beach back with you. Plus, Aloha Collection donates five percent of its profits to Hawaiian conservation organizations. It’s too lovely to throw in my luggage, so I use mine as a clutch. I may need to get another one – or six.”
