A Music Player, Aviator Sunglasses and a Herschel Backpack.

So 2 weeks ago, I attended a blogger meet-up with the Herschel team. I had no idea that it was an intimate event, as in the only bloggers who were there was me and Carlos Concepcion. I wanted to die (coz Carlos looked uber cute hehe) of kahihiyan haha. Anyway, my point is (I swear I have a point haha) I feel really lucky to have been chosen by Herschel as one of the few bloggers to represent/blog about the brand. They said they wanted to reach out and be seen by their target market--artists, musicians, vintage junkies, freespirited indie peeps. :)

I will make a separate post on how I wore my Herschel bag. But let me share with you guys their lookbook that screams indie, fun, summer, carefree and youth. :) (play Youngblood by The Naked & Famous while looking at it para mas may effect hehe).

  The Herschel Supply Co. bags are the ultimate canvas for self-expression

Drawing inspiration from vintage mountaineering, American heritage, world travel and fashion, Herschel Supply Co. is one of the few international brands to embody vintage-inspired casual fashion. Think of friends in front of a Polaroid camera, in kind and comfy shirts, a bold denim jacket, earth boots, rippling dresses, carefree spirits; and a blasting indie song. The brand is a part of this picture. 

Herschel Supply Co.’s bags and accessories grasp the idea of the unconventional taste that goes along with the unique personality. Its classic look and charming details suit the eccentrics, giving the right amount of room to express themselves in their own accord. These eccentrics inhale music, fashion and art and exhale style that is of their own. Each of them a result of a heap of influences, weaving patterns that create interesting ensembles and statements. 

From backpacks to gadget sleeves, Herschel Supply Co. has come a long way from its birth as a barrel manufacturer in the 1900’s. Today, its mission is to create well-designed quality products. And with its owners changing from generations to the next, the brand moved forward. In early 2010, the company ventured on fashion, creating impressive canvases – while leaving details that spark imagination – for individuals to freely express themselves. 

 

Herschel Supply Co.’s bags are presently used by a variety of people in USA and Japan and seen in well-followed fashion web sites. Known best for their backpacks, the brand’s line also includes messenger, tote and duffle bags; wallets and gadget sleeves.  

Herschel Supply Co. is exclusively distributed by the Primer Group and is sold in the following Bratpack stores in the Philippines: Greenbelt 5, Gateway, SM The Block, Robinsons Galleria, Robinsons Place Manila and Abreeza, Davao City.The Primer Group of Companies, Asia’s next retail giant, is the exclusive distributor of     Herschel Supply Co. in the Philippines.

And that is why if I was a backpack, I would definitely be that yellow Herschel backpack in the photo above! It's yellow, it's classic, it's vintage.  So me. How about you? :)
