Ipanema recently opened a branch called Sandalias in SM Lucena

Ipanema is a fashionable and hip Brazilian flip-flop brand. The store features the latest collection from last year’s Philippine Fashion Week alongside Ipanema Women’s and Men’s Collection, Kids line as well as Gisele Bundchen collection.

It’s nice to find something for the family members in specialty stores like Sandalias, especially with summer just a few months away.

I’m sure husbands and children will enjoy browsing their own flip flops in this store after accompanying mom who shopped for porcelain switch plates.

The “SANDALIAS” store exclusively selling Ipanema flip flops is located at the ground floor of SM City Lucena.

I got a new pair of Reebok ActiveVibe rubber shoes last year at the Reebok Store in TriNoma. 25% off was just the right motivation to finally convince me to get an upgrade.

The hubby heaved a sign of relief when I finally chose a new pair: Pink and Gray Reebok ActiveVibe.  Why? I’m finally retiring that old pair that I’ve bashed, abused and used till it was pathetic to look at

I love how it fits my feet and how comfortable it feels when I walk. I haven’t tried running in these yet, as if I run. So there goes the clue as to how I have been keeping fit. Not!

This pair was worth every penny, I must say and that’s coming from a penny-pinching mom

And for those who know me well, they know for sure I am not fond of fuchsia pink but this one is an exception because it goes well with gray.

Now to plan on what to do to put this to good use

Price after 25% markdown: Php2, 696. 25

What did you get for Christmas? Have you finally mastered the art of gifting after all these years?

New clothes? Toys for your children? A new bag? Tech toys? Kitchen gadgets?  Dinner ware? Personalized pub mugs? Baked goodies? New shoes?

Or perhaps a new lease in life like what some of our brothers and sisters down south got.

I don’t know if it is considered as new lease in life if they survived but their family members did not. Yes, knowing as I am quite obsessed with knowing details when things like these happened, I read articles, watched videos, discussed when someone’s willing to listen and thought about them. I prayed for them too.

So now I ask again, “What did you get for Christmas?”

The answer depends on what values you treasure most: family, love, friendship, peace of mind, and being a channel to be able to help others are just a few things that may give satisfaction not just for Christmas but for the rest of the year.
