So you\u2019ll not only need a pair that is hard-wearing, it has to be soft and comfy as well.<\/p><p>Toss out your grubby flip flops and slip those beautifully manicured paws into a pair of Havaianas. Created in 1962 by Sao Paulo Alpargatas, a well-renowned Brazilian shoe and clothing company, Havaianas (pronounced ah-vai-yah-nas) have turned into a world-wide phenomenon.<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Havaianas Top Mix\" src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Havaianas-Top-Mix.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><p>The Havaianas were inspired by the traditional Japanese Zori sandal, which has a sole made of rice straw. You can still see the iconic textured rice pattern found on the foot-bed of every pair of Havaianas today. Its name, which is Portuguese for Hawaiian, is a tribute to the popular and glamourous beach honeymoon destination. Although it looks simple, each pair of Havaianas is made with a closely-guarded secret rubber recipe that makes it buttery-soft, bouncy, flexible and durable. A famous comedian once said that \u201c they don\u2019t lose their shape, don\u2019t smell, and the straps don\u2019t get loose.\u201d<\/p><p>The everyday act of slipping on a pair of flip-slops has been made stylish by celebrities like David Beckham, Heidi Klum and Jennifer Aniston. With new prints, colours, and models coming up regularly, a pair of Havaianas is no longer just a pair of flip flops. So imagine walking hand-in-hand along the beach at your honeymoon resort with a stylish and colourful pair of Havaianas under your feet. They\u2019re so comfortable you\u2019ll think you\u2019re walking barefoot!<\/p><p><b>Want to win yourself a pair of Havaianas Top Mix His &amp; Hers beach footwear featured in this article?
