My love affair with Havaianas started 4 years ago when my events company, Creative Juice, was first hired to help organize Havaianas’ signature event, Make Your Own Havaianas. Like other Havaianaticos, this fun-filled, much awaited fashion event is something I always look forward to.  It’s fun choosing from the colors of soles and straps, plus pins and Swarovski crystals, which are then mixed and matched and assembled right before your eyes.  Then you get to bring home and wear a pair that is truly your own creation.

Havaianas is now practically my default footwear– for casual trips to the mall, to my kids’ school, on weekend getaways, for quick errands to the grocery or to the bank, or even while I was pregnant and when I gave birth at the hospital– they are on my feet maybe 90% of the time!  I love my Havaianas because they’re so comfy, practical, and still make me look fashionable specially when I put on my pairs that are embellished with pins or crystals. 

Make Your Own Havaianas 2009 is happening again on May 28 to June 1, 2009 at the Rockwell Tent. It is open during mall hours of Power Plant Mall.
