Vivienne Westwood for Melissa

One day, as I wandering aimlessly along the shopping streets here in Brazil, I came across this quaint little shop that had the cutest flats in their display window. Intrigued, I came in and realized they were all made of plastic! Yes, plastic! And not only that, they smelled like bubble gum too!!

The SA was kind enough to give me a quick fashion round-up saying the designs are from a Brazilian company called "Melissa" whose eco-conscious creations features plastic shoes made out of recyclable materials.

And just like any other hip retailer in this day and age, Melissa collaborates too with designers to come up with some special, stand-out pieces!

In particular, these "Ultragirl" flats is a collaboration with the fashion icon, Vivienne Westwood. They immediately caught my eye and within 5 minutes, they were mine!

I have a feeling this is not my first and last pair of Melissa jellies.
Already eyeing the Lady Dragon and the 3-strap flats!!!
