Blogging the REAL Mindanao!

Mindanao is my native land. This is where I belong, feel secure and am at peace. To be in Mindanao is to feel the embrace of a warm, soft blanket.

So whether your little rendezvous will happen in the city or out-of-town, here are some chic style suggestions to make your Valentine’s Day extra special.

Take Me to the Beach

Most couples head to the beach for a little rest and recreation on V-Day. And why not! The beach has always been a good place to walk around in style. This love month, bring out the flowing sundresses for the women and the comfortable linen for the men and match it with their favorite Havaianas flip-flops. For the beach bums, choose bright colors such as the yellow Havaianas Brasil Logo for men and the yellow Havaianas Slim Jelly for women. Havaianas Batik for men and burnt orange Havaianas Fit for women is an equally bright combination.

Thanks to SPRUCE Designer Network, Inc., to its owners Trisha and Vanessa Tamparong and to its very amiable marketing officer Cristina Maagad (Hello, Miss Tiny!), I had a blast at the recently concluded Make Your Own Havaianas 2009 Cagayan de Oro leg event. The MYOH 2009 Northern Mindanao event was held last October 23 to 25, 2009 at the Atrium, Limketkai Mall, Cagayan de Oro City and it was my very first Make Your Own Havaianas experience!

Armed with my VIP invitation, I went to the Atrium and left with a huge smile on my face! It was fun “creating” my own special pair. No wonder Havaianaticos look forward to this special event!

The whole process was not only fun but pretty fast, too. I was given a brochure where I was to write my contact information and for me to choose my preferred sole color, size and style (there were adult slim and top styles available), preferred strap color and style as well as my preferred Havaianas Lifestyle Pins.

It was easy to choose since there were specially designed “wheels” which you can use to compare colors, style and to mix and match straps with soles.

Since this year’s theme is “Put some local soul into your step,” I chose four Culture Pins that depicted Filipino pride — the vinta, jeepney, sorbetero and Philippine map pins.

There are also other available designs such as a lomo cam and Swarovski crystals.

As soon as I made up my mind on how my masterpiece should look like, I approached a member of the Havaianas team and she assembled my special pair for me…on the spot! That was a first for me, too, by the way…it was the first time for me to witness firsthand how a pair of Havaianas was assembled!
