Let Your Havaianas Glow

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 13:00:22 -0700

Once upon a vacation, I was rushing to get back to my room from the lobby. It was dark, I was being attacked by mosquitoes, and needed cover ASAP. Everyone removed their flip-flops and sandals at the entrance, so there were always lonely mates waiting for their owners. I slipped on some flip-flops and raced to my bungalow. The next morning I realized I grabbed the wrong flips. I put them back, but then they sat there for days. Luckily, I found mine. I felt bad. This all could have been prevented had my flip-flops had solar energy and glowed in the dark. I present to you Havaianas "Cool" glow-in-the-dark flip-flops ($28). May each traveler be reunited with their loyal flips.

Fab's Custom Havaianas: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 04:12:22 -0800

Since Valentine's Day is smack in the middle of Fashion Week this year, I gave myself a little treat. Havaianas, the cheap flip flops from Brazil was all know and love, and sponsor of FW, offered to customize a pair of Havianas and I thought, um fun! You could customize the straps with initials, studs, or Swarovski crystals in different colors. You know me, I went for the sparkle. I chose pink to remind me of getting them done on V Day. I quite like the pewter color and skyscraper imagery as a canvas for the sparkly pink. Do you love them as much as I do?

Celebrity Style: Rachel Bilson

FabSugar — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 15:00:22 -0700

Rachel Bilson looks mighty dressed up for a grocery store outing (well, aside from the Havaianas). The actress threw on See by Chloe's silk printed dress, but maintained ease with flip-flops. She left her green Chanel shades behind and opted for a pair of brown Ray Ban Wayfarers. No other accessories - except for a bag - are in sight. It makes sense considering she's walking the streets and not the red carpet.

See by Chloé Silk Printed Dress - $363.00	Havaianas - Grey Slim Moon Flip Flop - $24.00
Ray-ban "wayfarer ii" sunglasses - $139.00	Kooba 'Delia' Chain Strap Flap Bag - $495.00
Rachel Leigh Triangle Stud Earrings in Cobalt - $52.00

Fab Site: Havaianas.com

Flip-flop junkies unite! Havaianas.com is the site to check out for any rubber flopping connoisseur. Most of the time, I find flip-flops to be made and designed poorly. Havaianas, on the contrary, take their casual footwear seriously. They've been around since the 1960s and even boast a top-secret rubber recipe. Their redesigned site offers an easy shopping experience and amazing selection of flip-flops ranging from a jeweled encrusted limited edition collection to everyday basics. There's even a live IM chat feature, which allows you to ask questions or get help. Who'd ever thought shopping for rubber flip-flops could be so much fun?

Look of the Day: Pretty in Pink

FabSugar — Thu, 23 Aug 2007 08:00:22 -0700

I don't know, walkguitarchick might beat out Molly Ringwald in a Who Wore It Better: Pretty in Pink Edition! This look makes me jealous: she looks so comfy and laid back, but the pink femmes up the outfit. And the layering of the blouse over the striped top is an unexpected personal touch. Good call.

Here's what she has on:

Tee: Urban Outfitters
Blouse: Urban Outfitters
Shorts: Soffee
Flip Flops: Havaianas

Congrats to walkguitarchick!

Celebrity Style: Ashley Tisdale

FabSugar — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 11:00:22 -0700

I'm starting to develop a teeny bopper girl crush on Ashley Tisdale. What can I say? The High School Musical star is quite a little cutie in her trendy LA warm-weather looks. Earlier, she perfectly exemplified the beauty of an elongated cardi. She's wearing some favorites here: Ray-Ban Wayfarers, fedora, a macho watch, Louis Vuitton bag, Havaianas flip-flops. But what sets this apart is the colored bra underneath her all-white ensemble, which is a styling technique I personally partake in.
