MANILA, Philippines - Pin up!
In tropical Manila, we love to express ourselves through our flip-flops. Now, these rubber thongs can sound off our personality in many more ways than one. Terry S.A., the company that brought Havaianas to the Philippine shores, now introduces Pininho, the perfect accessory, or rather “expressory” for your fave rubber thongs.
Pininho means “cute little pin” in Portuguese and they are exactly that: desirable, decorative little pins that you can tack onto your flip-flops (or your bags, purses, sneakers, bandannas). A whole range caters to all tastes and moods. A gold diamanté skull and bones pin for the glam rockers, a strawberry for sweet gals, peace signs for the hippies and hot red lips for the romantic.
The summer may be ending but the season for expressorizing seems to have just begun.
Pininho is available at All Flip Flops, Megamall and Glorietta 3 and Aloha Boardsports, Power Plant Mall, Rockwell.
Metal match
Luxury may be on the decline but it doesn’t mean that all that glitters is just for show. Pazzy Manila’s new set of metallic ballet flats proves that shine is still saleable in this era of gray and monotone.
The Multiply-marketed brand takes the round-toe flats, deals in some drama with silver, gold and patent black shades and some texture with snakeskin and croc textures.
The result: elegant, timeless pairs that bring some shine — literally — to these ho-hum, rain-drenched days.
