The Make Your Own Havaianas event is a yearly tradition among the slipper-loving lot.
These are the Havianas I made during the first day of the Make Your Own Havaianas (MYOH) 2013 event. This yearly summer tradition has grown to be a year-defining event. I know, I know, that seems like a push for a slipper event, but I realized after many years of MYOH, I've grown to define the yearly tradition in different ways.
It started off as as merely wanting a unique pair, so pahirapan before to select a combination that would make my ultra-colorful pair the only one of its kind. Other years, it was about goth drama and no-nonsense style (so came my blacks with skulls), aligned with how busy, stressed, and anxious I was at that time. Last year, I kind of zeroed in on the process of choosing my Havs.
For this year's MYOH, I wanted to celebrate my dreams, wishes, and goals. My 2013 Havs are meant to perk me up, inspire me, and remind me that each step I take should be a step towards achieving my goals. O diba?! Positive spin naman.

Lending my dreams some wings.
So, here are this year's Havaianas. My slippers are slim soles in pool green with silver straps and two pins. Pansinin n'yo pins ko! I luuuurve them.;-) They're a pair of wings, one for each strap. Hopefully, my slippers will remind me to always dream big and fly high. ;-)
In fairness, bagay sa slipper theme ko ang air balloon of slippers during the event.

The yearly slipper wheel that just keeps getting cooler and cooler

Top soles, the thicker slippers, go for P895 and slim soles, the more feminine looking ones with thinner straps, go for P945. Each pin costs P100-P150 each, spending on your pin of choice. If you can't seem to make up your mind, grab this year's commemorative style for P995, a super-cool glow-in-the-dark pair designed by Filipino illustrator Dan Matutina.
