I have heard quite a bit about Havaianas, but have never seen them or tried them on. Do I need some? All they all that?
Rue La La has a Havaianas Boutique today- it looks like you can get two pair for $20-25.
Tell me about them!

Check Marshall's first if you have one near you. I've seen that brand as well as Reef and other "high end" (read: ridiculously expensive for what they are) flops there for between 7 and 15 dollars. I tried them all on, and honestly, I didn't find Havaianas to be all that different from any other rubber flop. I mean, if you get leather ones, that's a different story. The ones I *did* fall in love with are called Terra Soles: http://www.amazon.com/terrasoles-Womens-Beyond-Thong-Fog/dp/B001J6NTIO/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=shoes&qid=1278516512&sr=1-4
ReplyDeleteThey are WAY squishy and comfortable. I bought a pair!
I've always favored the J.Crew basic rubber flip flops. I've had some for several years that I wore alot. They hold up well. I'm not sure if they really sell these much anymore. I would get them with and without a wedge. Ya never know when you need some heel! Right now I am in love with the reebok easy tone flip flops (I have 3 pairs). I have the sneakers as well. I'm not sure what they really do for your butt but I find them very comfortable. They seem to be all I wear of late and I'm on my feet all day. I've found they really reduce the number of "knee aches" I have. They are pricey but should hold up a while.

I haven't tried them but they're cute so I'd say yes, you need them!
ReplyDeleteI was obsessed with getting some back when they were on Oprah. She went on and on about how comfy they were. I know think she gets paid by companies...I made my MIL drive an hour to find some when I was pregnant. We did and each got a pair. I was SO excited!!
ReplyDeleteI don't EVER wear them. They are super uncomfortable. The rubber in the middle is awkward. This is from a Florida girl who wears flip flops 5 out of 7 days a week.
A huge waste of time and money in my opinion. They are pretty, but you can't see all that when you have your foot in there!
I love them. Bought a pair on vacation in Jamaica several years ago, not knowing they were all that. But I wore them all the time! I just replaced them with a new pair this year. This time I got the "slim" which has narrower straps and I like them even better. v. comfy. :)
ReplyDeleteCostco in NC has Haviana's right now for $18 a pr. I got 2 pair at AT Loft last week for a total fo $24...they were having a 40% off sale on full price itens...the full price of them there was $24. If lost is having their sale still, that is a good deal. I do have afriend who got the ones from ruelala too this wk.
ReplyDeleteThey are old school flops with thin straps (the SLIM version...which is what I have and what LOFT carries) and thin bottoms but soo confortable. The ones at Costco have a little BLING on them. one tiny "rhinestone on each flop. Not cheesy...cute.
I think they are super comfortable and wear them all the time.
