So much love..

For Havaianas. I've already dedicated a whole post to them, and now they get another because I just found this article about them (and remember, thong = flip-flop!!):

Created in Brazil in 1962, Havaianas are without a doubt the original thong. And as the amazing brand has left its footprint on the world, this classic fashion icon has been adopted as an Aussie favourite - you only have to think back to Australia Day and the world record that we set using summer’s ultimate accessory, the Havaianas floatie.

Having been called “the best rubber sandal in the world”, Havaianas are contemporary and stylish and are best described by their 1970s advertising campaign that clearly stated why they’re so amazing – “They don’t lose their shape, don’t smell and the straps don’t get loose.” Designer Marc Newsom who designed the Qantas First Class Lounge in Sydney puts it in his top four designs that “cannot be improved.” So not only are you getting some clean smelling thongs, you’re getting pieces of art!
