NaRaYa, have you heard or seen this brand? The brand has been around for years and I've visited their Robinson's Place branch several times and even bought some cute ribbon pouches as gifts!
I love ribbons! *ahmm* I am sure it's quite a known fact to my friends! So seeing ribbon travel bags, handbags, pouches is like seeing a huge DOLLAR sign! hehehe
Here are store photos of NaRaYa in SM North EDSA branch....
In-store display
You get my point about feeling like a princess inside the store, right?
To get to know more about the brand and just to get to know the people who brought the brand to our country. A couple of bloggers were invited for an intimate dinner at 2nd's Restaurant last week. I was a bit early and got in to a function room with this gorgeous display of NaRaYa bags!
The Brand Manager for Ferretti and NaRaYa Philippines, who is also a blogger Ms. Liz Lanuzo was there to accommodate us. Gorgeous outfit and her shoes I want to "shoe-nap"!
Lauren was also there and we both enjoy our Buffalo Chicken!
And Jill who sat right beside me for the night,
I believe base on her lovely smile, she enjoyed sitting next to me noh? *laughs*

As I took the photos quite early, I wasn't able to get a photo for the rest of the bloggers together with Ms. Cecille (the wonderful person who brought in NaRaYa to the Philippines), but I grabbed a photo from Pax of Drowning Equilibriums. Thank you dear!
Here's what I learned about NaRaYa, the brand creates various products from different fabrics depending on the demands of clients! Each production was done in such quality control that I took a huge "gasp" when I learned how meticulous they are in creating ONE bag!
There are surprisingly so many variety to choose from colors, textures, sizes and fabric designs! Whether you are a huge bag person or a tiny pouch person, you will definitely find something worth your money! I was glad to be assured that the NaRaYa products are made for durability as seen on its stitches! That is what I am aiming for in a bag as I carry gazillion of stuffs!
Here are some products available locally, all photos from NaRaYa Philippines.
I got myself a medium-sized white bag! I usually don't go for white bags but the fabric is washable!

I will use this bag for make-up gigs! I've changed so many "gig bag" because they tear up quite easily. I am excited to use this to store my make-up brushes, make-up tools and a lot of those extras that aren't inside my make-up train case!
Fellow blogger Kim also uses NaRaYa bag for her hair stuffs, which are seriously heavy! I think she vouch for the quality of these bags as well!

NaRaYa branches that I know is SM North EDSA and Robinson's Place Ermita.
The bag shown on photo costs Php1,199.00 (approx $28.50)
Oh, we do not only talk about bags but also shoes! We were also re-introduced to the Ferretti Shoes! Yay for locally-made shoes! I will talk more about Ferretti when I get the chance to visit their store and take photos for everyone okie dokie?

Ah, are you into ribbons like AMW?
Gosh, I have ribbon clips, headbands, dresses, shoes, sandals!
Grow up Nikki, grow up! :P
Keep smilin'
Stay happy!
