The Pre MYOH 2009 Special Event

Last night was super fun because my Havie group got invited to a special event to introduce this year's Make Your Own Havaianas at the Rockwell Tent! What made it extra exciting was the fact that each of us was entitled to a customized, complimentary pair. We've been so loyal to Havaianas since the brand was introduced locally a few years back and this was surely their way of thanking us for our support.

Super cool invitation! I got mine a week before and momentarily misplaced it but I found it just in time. Notice the pop up flip flops? Sabine went crazy when she saw this.


We all met up at nearby UCC Cafe first for merienda
(can we ever not include food in our agenda?)

Then it was time to troop to the tent before we knew it


Posed first by the entrance, before attacking the place

Despite the limited guest list, the place was packed! Food and drinks were overflowing and there was a brief fashion show to showcase this year's pins


Culture and life-style themed pins (jeepney, sorbetero cart, vinta, lomo camera, musical notes, vintage TV boombox, and more plus the ever present Swarovski pins)




With my goodie bag which was also a gift from them

I chose the marine blue soles with spring green straps and lomo cam and beach pins.
LOVE!!!

More pics later! Meantime, we're gearing up for the actual first day of MYOH on the 28th so we can grab our 2nd, 3rd, 4th pairs? HAHAHA!
