Havaianas Is Launching Sneakers And Espadrilles
Havaianas, possibly one the the most recognizable Brazilian brands around the world, is launching its first line of sneakers and espadrilles called Soul Collection. I was a bit skeptical at first when I heard Havaianas was working on sneakers, but they actually turned out pretty cool. If they are as comfortable as the flip flops, they are guaranteed to be a major hit.
The line will soon be available at the Havaianas flagship store in São Paulo, and prices for the European market will range from 28 to 55 Euros. View more pictures of the collection after the jump.

The Monange Dream Fashion Tour which kicked off this past Saturday in Curitiba can be officially described as a lower budget tackier version of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Watch two clips from the event after the jump and judge for yourself.
It looks so camp and tacky I may actually have to go see it live in São Paulo.
