Ice Watch’s New Ad Campaign by Photo Boutique

Isn’t almost everyone at the beach wearing an Ice Watch this summer?  We are Ice Watch swamped, and it isn’t about to fade away either, because their new ad campaign with Photo Boutique rocks.  Literally, rocks.  I love sharing with you then creativity spurring out of Egypt and Photo Boutique, like Entitled Youth, are one of those original groups that I just can’t wait to see more from.  Enjoy the pictures and hopefully I’ll post a video soon!

Shibshibi taking Cairo by Storm

 

 

Shibshibi Logo

When flip-flops first became the go to beach footwear maybe 10 years ago, I thought, Egypt is flip-flop haven known for our green zanouba.  Ten years later Shibshibi, ‘my flip flop’ in Arabic, was launched by design team Sara Hamza, Dina Naguib, and Nadia Ahmed.  The tagline of their collection is “a unique fusion between oriental and modern footwear design; a real touch of contemporary with a glimpse of our ancestors patterns that makes SHIBSHIBI® a unique combination for everyday use”.

I have to admit I got bored of the Havaianas and other brands of flip-flops and am eager to get my hands on pair of creatively designed Shibshibi’s. The only worry is that the designs get repetitive so I hope the team keep coming up with ideas, keeping their collection innovative.  I am thinking along the lines of his and hers or bridal and bridesmaids flip-flops to be worn at weddings (at the end of the night of course!).  

Below are pictures of my favorites so far.
