Gert...I get mine from a local surf shop, but you can also order here  http://www.havaianasaustralia.com.au/001_Havaianas/002_Womens/pl.php
Julie's link has free postage for spending $10, link I posted is free postage over $49 spent...some stores sell different colors/styles.

I love them...very comfy and the only thong I've had that doesn't hurt my feet or rub...I've tried many!
I love the crystal range, as I'm a tad bling girl  ;) but there's so many other colours, and styles that are cheaper than the Swarovski ones.
You can also get the crystals in a heart shape, flower, butterfly & bow.

There's a colour for any outfit  ;)



.........EAT CAKE!

Thanks Maddy I will pop I to the store. Mine are still good but look like crap. They  just last forever.

JD and Andie - thanks for the tips. Haven't been home long enough to give it another go yet - and need some more spuds, but will be out today and will call by the fruit and veg shop and see what I can find.
Will let you know how I go.
Cheers  :)

I'd love those havianas - but they don't make them in XL flipper size for my not so delicate looking sized feet. I can get mens thongs...but they just don't make 'em pretty enough  :(

Nikkit buy the men's ones in black and add your own bling.

Good idea DG, but then Yvette says they go up to size 12....where I ask you ... where??? (rather desperate asking!!)
Yvette - point me in the right direction and I'll be there.
(you have just quietly made my day. now all I need to do is go shopping...oh dear!)

I am in Sydney but my DD has size 11 feet and she usually gets them from the surf shops no problem. Unless your feet are bigger you shouldn't have problems  :)

Don't answer that question Yvette, I just found them. (must read threads properly in future  :) ) Oh the joys of online shopping.

Just saw your post...I'm size 11 too and must admit I avoid the surf shops as all the stuff looks so small in the windows...and I'm not small  ;D
Will go look now.

I really need to avoid this thread, it is getting expensive  :o

Nikkit you will need size 41-42 size which should be the equivalent to a size 11 I think

Thank you Yvette, I may need some retail therapy once my gorgeous (fighting, itchy, scratchy, can't stand the sight of each other at the moment) girls go back to school.

Hugely funny obbie...I almost resorted to vodka not milk on my weeties thismorning :o :o
I do love school holidays honest, but wish I could separate my girls for a couple of days so they could show a little love to eachother again.
