Makeup Artists Make Flip Flops?

laura mercier flip flops.jpgBack when I was a beauty intern, I noticed something curious: the number one gifts to send to beauty editors are always the same – Picnic baskets, fluffy robes and flip-flops.
So we knew it was only a matter of time before somebody came up with this newest designer (makeup, that is) collaboration.
Trish McEvoy, Bobbi Brown and Laura Mercier have all just designed their own pair of limited-edition Havaianas. They’ll be available at Saks the entire month of June, and all proceeds from each sale benefit charity: water.
The one at top is Laura Mercier’s design – click through to check out Bobbi Brown’s and and Trish McEvoy’s.
(We kind of wish these were coming with neon nail polish, but whatever.)

Woah, the Laura Mercier ones are so MOB for Colette/Reebok-y. By which I mean great.

agree, someone should come with neon nail polish for people who doesn’t dare to wear neon makeup.

Things must be different in the US. When I was a fashion editor we would gawp in amazement when the beauty girls came back from their launches. DVD players, ipods, Mulberry bags were all the norm…even for the assistants!

None from Pat? :-/

Kit in Australia made havaianas that matched their nail polish. It was a summer edition so the colours were pretty bright like neon orange and hot pink. Very cute!

Married to the MOB- the worst clothing line EVER!!!!!
