This is one of my favorite outfits, and a must-have since I live in Hawaii. 
Everyone above has done such an excellent job describing the outfit, so I'll only mention one or two things. First off, the kukui nut necklace - kukui nuts are generally round, not flat like they are here, and I haven't seen too many painted kukui nut leis (or necklaces). Small nitpick there.
ZenPug mentioned that it was difficult to see the necklace when the lei was on. It's very common to wear multiple leis on special occasions like birthdays or graduations. Also, you can see more of the necklace when you put the lei on the proper way. Leis should be worn with half in the front, half in the back - in other words, centered on the shoulders and not just hanging off the neck (that said, they do tend to slip).
LOVE the pineapple ukelele. It really is precious!
Overall Grade: A
Here's a pic of Jess modeling it:
