Christian Louboutin is a Havaianista!



( photo via personamoda.br)

If you worship at the altar of this man, you are going to LOVE him even more now. According to an interview for Veja magazine, when asked if he owned any Havaianas, Monsieur Louboutin revealed that he has not 1, not 2, not 10.... but 30-40 pairs!!!
I have my hand on my heart in awe and wonder!
The man has exquisite taste. He's an artist, really he is!
AND he is NOT a Stiletto Snob at all.
He said:" Every woman needs three pair of shoes: high heels, flats and Havaianas."
I wish we could peek into his shoe closet and see which Havaianas styles he owns, don't you?

Free Havaianas Trends for Stormtroopers who join the Rebel Alliance !!!!

I'm not gonna lie to you. I'm a Star Wars fan. I coveted that gold bikini of Princess Leia and wore braids around my ears when I wanted to impress the boys. (Although, I think now that the gold bikini would have been more effective).

While living in SF , I did visit/stalk the LucasArts campus in the Presidio in the hopes of running into George Lucas....

Today, I'm doing my part to make the world a better place.

Calling all Stormtroopers out there... join the rebel alliance ... and get free Havaianas Trends.




Some of your friends came by and this is how they looked after they tried on their Havaianas Trends.....





Darth Vader, I'm giving you a Havaianas make-over next.....

It's Fabrizio- the editor of Brazilian Vogue.
Looking fab, Fab!
Who would have thought an ascot and Havaianas could co-exist in one outfit....

Mani-Pedi SOS!!!!

Okay, so Gisele has gone to the dark side and has affiliated herself with those Havaianas wannabes and dated somebody's hot baby daddy and what-e-vuh, she's tall, she's beautiful, she's brazilian, she's Leo's ex , she can chillax in her socks drawer..... that's gotta be SO tough!NOT!

And yet, poor Gisele, she deserves our compassion, folks.... coz she CAN"T WEAR AMAZING HAVAIANAS ANYMORE!!!!
And WE can! (here's the part where I dance like Jack Black .In School of Rock. Around the room. With Havaianas on both hands AND feet!!!)

Hoo-kay! Enough silly gloating! HaHa!
My sweet mama would not approve!
Actually, this picture reminds me that I need a pedicure asap!

I'm taking my new chocolate Havaianas High Light (Tangs) for a night out on the town and I need a pedicure to match it.

Ladies, know of any good nail salons here in Singapore?

Can these Havaianas be turned into a room?

These Havaianas Metallic Stripe have a preppy vibe to them. I can totally see these worn with little collared shirts and white shorts. Or maybe Lily Pulitzer-type mini skirts and LL Bean canvas bags?
A little Martha's Vineyard via Sao Paulo!

Here are some rooms that reminded me of these Havaianas Metallic Stripe design:




They say the color pink releases happy endorphins in the brain and it also suppresses the appetite.... In that case, this is the perfect dining room for when you want to remain happy while you are on a diet!

Doesn't this feel like a living room that you could put your feet up and have long visits with the gal pals?



This one is on my " Regrets" list. I had my finger on the pay now button and got distracted! I love Dash and Albert! More affordable than Madeline Weinrib or John Robshaw and just as fun!



(dashandalbert)

The unusual diagonal stripe really brings your focus to the bed.

Purplelicious!



Green room.

Pear-Fect! I'm loving the new Havaianas Pear



According to Mr. Google, in mythology, the Pear is a symbol for Hera, Aphrodite and Po..... did someone say Aphrodite?! The goddess of love? That's all I need to know.

There's something perky and evocative about a pear. No wonder you see it in so many forms, in so many hipster homes around town...



This is a print from Ohdeedoh. This would look cool in a room with a danish teak/ retro kinda vibe.


This one is by Enzo Mari.
I think Sarah Jessica Parker has the apple version in her Hamptons home kitchen.

You could also get this cup from Orla Kiely


OR you could get the Havaianas Pear in light blue, sand grey, white or chocolate!

Which one are you getting?

Surfer Girls



I'd like to think there's a surfer girl in all of us!


(dailystoke)

Okay, maybe not all of us will surf in an (do the finger quoting thing here) A-ctual, R-eal- O-cean...

....but I surf the internet... Does that count?



There is something about the front straps of these Havaianas Surfs that are soooo comfy!




Maybe I'll also get a pair for my friend, Kate. She's a surfer- of both cyberspace and oceans. She deserves it after a summer of working and living with the Maasai in Africa.

Surfer Girls are just so darned cool!

Which Havaianas would Johnny Depp get in the ION?


( Photo: highfashiongirl)

For sure there will be new Havaianas Skulls in the Ion....
Whether Johnny Depp shows up is purely wishful thinking!
But, but, but he mentioned Singapore in that pirate movie he did...
So, a girl can dream, right?



If he came though, he would pick these up. Not overly skull-y Skull Havaianas.


So cool .... just like Johnny!I love you Johnnneeeeeyyyy!


(McQueen)

Raise your hand if you want to raid Johnny Depp's closet/ run away with him!

XOXO,

Madame Butterfly!


( Alexander McQueen)
There are new colors of Havaianas Butterfly Slims this September!!!
Oh joy!
Four lovely colors to choose from....
Rumour has it that these are Jennifer Aniston's fave! More fave than dinner dates with Gerard Butler? Hmmm....
Me? I'll take these Havaianas over Gerard Butler A-ny-time!
Even if he shouts " This is Sparta!" in his sexy/ scary/sexy way and shows me his abs all day long! Really-Really!



The chocolate goes with everything but these are too cute to resist!



Maybe I'll get all four and change my name to Madame Butterfly!
Sorry, King Leonidas!

XOXO,
sassy

Oh! Gerard just sent me a message:

tall and tan and young and lovely....



Would you trade your bikini top for a pair of Havaianas Brasil?

XOXO,
sassy

I'm walking on sunshine!


(photo via brown button trading)

I need some yellow tops in my life! Wouldn't these just put a smile on your face?



I wonder when are we getting yellow tops here in Singapore!

XOXO,
sassy

I bet this guy wished he stayed in the office.....

I used to watch the cute surfer dudes in California on my beach walks with Hugo, the Havaianas Hound. They'd be shouting and laughing while unloading their boards!

Harrrumph!

Well, I, for one, certainly wouldn't be so cheerful at the thought of swimming in arctic cold waters and paddling out into the deep unknown, populated by carnivorous predatory fish named Jaws, Jaws Jr. and Jaws III.

Seriously! You can't really blame Jaws, can you? Put yourself in Jaw's, uh, dorsal fin, for a second: don't surfers look like those mystery meat cocktail hors d'oeuvres served on crunchy little crackers?

But Wow! To put one's life in mother nature's hands, when you know she doesn't play favorites...well, that takes a busload of moxie.

All that for the possibility of the one most perfect, glorious, radical ride of your life!

Okay Dudes.... I get it... I still ain't doin it- but I get it!

Havaianas Surf celebrates that Surfer Spirit!




Havaianas Surf's up in the Ion , dude!

James Bond's Havaianas




James Bond seemed hypnotized by her bombastic behind. So, she thought the time was right to fling the lethal cobra, hidden among the sandwiches, in her picnic basket.
Just as she makes her move, he surprises her by grabbing her foot and, like a walkie-talkie, starts speaking into it.

Sean Connery: " Darling, you may be shexy but you are not very shmart! You can't outwit a 007! I knew that shomething dangeroush wash afoot when I heard our lunch box make shtrange hishing noishes! Now, take me to your leader or I will throw your shwarovski Havaianash into the shea..."




(this is where you hum the Bond theme as you read on... tung-turungtong, tungtungtung, tung-turungtong....)

If I were Q, and had to design a Havaianas for James Bond, it would be a souped up Havaianas Trail.The ankle straps would be removable and puff up into a speedboat for hasty getaways.The front straps would have a GPS Pininho (in case of capture) and ipod with speakers (for romancing the enemy). Hidden in the soles, a travel toothbrush, floss and mouthwash coz' he sure does a lot of kisshing this guy!

How would you soup up a 007's Havaianas?

Holy Havaianas Slims!


Are those Chocolate Havaianas Slims on Angie?

Ooooh La La! C'est Chic!



Yesterday, there was an impromptu thunderstorm which terrified the bee-gee-sus out of Hugo, the Havaianas Hound.
After a particularly loud (and ominous) thunderclap...RRRing!RRring! the phone rings.
Me: Whadayawant? (I squawked nasally in my fake New York accent. This is my standard greeting for telemarketers and husbands. But only on rainy days).

Cici: Alo?! Bonjour!Bonjour! It eez mee Cici! Mon Dieu! Do you have a cold? You sound so stuffed up? Terrible! You must have some milk weeth a dash of brandy.

Background: Cici spends her summers in France. She just bought a hundred year old farmhouse with no W.C. in Burgundy. Very gutsy move. She is an excellent cook and a certified shoe-aholic. She roams the Marais and, well, all over Paris really, in search of good food, adventure, Havaianas and eco-friendly port-a-potties.

Me: Bonjour, Cic! How was your summer?

Cici: I spent 5 weeks cleee-ning up my jungle of a garden in "La Montagne" ( that's her new 100 year old house)! You must come! I found an old table in the aus ( that's house) , painted eet white and had a peec-neec! I wore the A-va-ia-nas you gave me all summer (navy peacocks slims, size 38). I had a good bottle of Burgundy wine, an old record player and my A-va-ia-nas. Eet was magic!

This is why everybody needs a French bestfriend! They can turn hacking the weeds and fighting aphids into a magical peec-neec!

Brangelina who?



Sorry Angelina, but Jen is scoring all sorts of brownie points with her Havaianas lovins!
