Unbelievable.
I remember the first Make Your Own Havaianas (MYOH) event inside Rockwell mall. It was a relatively intimate affair.
Two years after, now in Rockwell Tent. Huge venue, big crowd!
So what was the fuss all about?
Well, this year aside from the usual color combinations, which I find last year even better…they were offering unlimited embellishments, and funky fabric strips you can wrap around the straps of your flipflops. The fabric strips called Lacinhos that can be designed into gladiator sandals.
You can choose (unlimited) from any of these pins. You can spell out your whole name or chose from lifestyle pins (skateboard, headphones, skull, star, flower, crystal etc.) I had too much of crystals last year so I tried to do away with it this time.
It was an outrageous day in Rockwell Tent.
To date, I’m on my 28th pair already. I didn't know what made me so crazy with these flipflops. To think I rarely use them these days. I’m on heels for work everyday. Oh well...
I decided to go on the darker side and slims. Well for one, the options were limited. Two, most of what I have were on the bright shades and tops already. I was a bit upset though, I wanted to get 5 pairs but due to very few choices I walked out with 3 pairs.
I love MYOH because I get to express myself and put meaning to what I create. Here are my best effort designs, my loot:
I call this design #1 as HavMyName. *hehe* I spelled out my name on the left and put 2 sun pins on each. Sun, symbolizes hope. Sun gives us tomorrow, new beginning, better days. *wink*
I used graphite sole and metallic nude staps. HubBEE has the exact same design as this. Another addition to our His/Hers collection. *beams*
Design #2, HavvySexyFeet. *battling eyelashes* Oye! I always find black and red elegant and sexy. Can be dressed up and down. This is my favorite pair! I was actually thinking of skipping the pins and make it just plain. But I don't want to pass up the chance to use these '08 embellishments that might not be available on the next MYOH.
I simply used black sole and red straps in Slim with star and flower pins alternatively holed on both straps to serve as icing on the cake. *heehee*
HavSomeCottonCandy, my design #3. Refreshing to the eyes. Reminds me of HelloKitty, Cotton Candies, my childhood. Makes me happy and bubbly.
Light rose top to pair with crystal blue straps. I put HubBEE and my initials (T and X) with a female pin in between to break the light colors. Looks like sprinkles for ice cream. Yummy! *smiles*
