EASTPAK x Kris Van Assche FW12

Habang tumatagal kayong nagbabasa ng blog ko, I am sure alamnaalam nyo na ang pagka Stage Friend/Sister/Daughter/Whatever ko! :p So when I got an invitation from my sister's friend Clang of Primer, I can't say no! Parang kapatid ko na kasi basta kaibigan ng kapatid ko! Naku alam niyo na ang weakness ko, basta when it comes to my close ties, support lang ako! ;p 

Anyway, a photo from Eastpak Philippines:

The intimate casual get-together was held in the cool Bratpack store in Greenbelt 5. Went there with my blogger friends to check out the Eastpak's lastest collaboration.

Eastpak, well-known urban-style bag brand in the Philippines, presents its third collaboration with Kris Van Assche, a fashion designer hailing from Belgium. Van Assche, known in the Paris fashion scene for his numerous shows, is also renowned for his works in installation art, costume design used in famous dance companies, and international advertising campaign. Elected artistic director of Dior Homme in 2007, Van Assche matches his design expertise to the ingenuity of Eastpak bags.

The collab with Van Assche remains true to the urban lifestyle cultivated by Eastpak. Backpacks have become the default selection for Eastpak, but Van Assche for the first time, incorporates travel gear to expand the brand’s selection. The travel gear all come with a rigid shell which allows the user to wear it easily on the shoulder. The bags may cost a fortune, but guaranteed namang remarkable with its strong and durable design, while maintaining a very luxurious look:

I super love this big black leather handbag:

In addition to travel pieces, the Van Assche line also includes backpacks, shopping totes, and messenger bags fit for the discerning individual. Ideal for the local scene, those who possess street smarts will definitely identify with the line’s pieces:

Other Eastpak bags available exclusively available at Bratpack Greenbelt 5, Robinson’s Ermita and Alabang Town Center:

This cute camera-printed backpack from Eastpak caught everyone's attention!

Thinking of getting one para may sub ang rainbow Jansport ko pag overnights and out-of-towns:

Since andun nadin, checked out the other Bratpack brands, and saw these Monroe-printed Incase:
