customized flipflops

Flipflops galore at the Havaianas Make Your Own Pair area at Powerplant Mall in Rockwell!!!

My bestfriend Myckle saw the ad on the Havaianas Philippines website.. We were so excited to have customized flipflops that we didn't care if we didn't have any extra money!! yeah, we're that crazy over havaianas..

We went there last March 23 at about 4 in the afternoon.. There were a lot of people lining up, choosing colors for the soles and straps.. mixing and matching swarovski crystals with flower, palm tree, stars, skull, or slipper pins.. You'd get dizzy trying to figure out what combination of sole and strap colors would be unique so you won't have the same combination the others have..

I had to create 3 pairs! 1 for me, 1 for my cousin Iqa and 1 for my cousin's girlfriend.. It took a few text messages to send the wide array of colors for both soles and straps to them so they could decide for themselves...

Finally, after about 2 hours of frenzy and dizziness in the area, I have decided on a cyanic blue sole, bronze straps and white swarovski crystals on both sides of the havaianas label on the straps.. cutie db? it's soooo me!! :) i love it! For my cousin, since she's only 12, it's a cyanic blue sole, blush rose straps, a flower pin on one slipper and a palm tree pin on the other.. talk about cute and unique! :) For my cousin's girlfriend, she didn't want any crystals or pins, it's tomato for sole and cyanic blue for the straps.. i'll post the pictures here next time..

After deciding on the combinations, we had to line up for the flipflops to be assembled (straps attached to soles). Hotties (and I really mean it) get to assemble the flipflops for you.. They're such cuties and really nice people too... uhuh! very accomodating.... They also get to put the pins on by the way.. Since I wanted crystals on mine, I had to line up in another area for the crystals to be placed.... It was so cool! They put on holes on the straps and attach the crystals there... Then it's off to the counter for payment...

It was so much fun! as in! watch out for the pics next time!
