Ode to Havaianas.

Shoes. I know they're useful, but I've really enjoyed not wearing them for the last few weeks. 

Like pretty much everyone here, since I arrived in Brazil I've come to love this country's great flip-flop institution, Havaianas

Cheap, cheerful and supremely comfortable, they are the great leveller - worn by everyone from favela kids to supermodels - and come in dozens of colours, patterns and sizes. In Rio, they're obligatory for not only the beach, but also the streets and going out.
