So, what does Merakibowy means? According to Caitlin, “Meraki”, is a Greek word that means, creating something that you love. “Bowy”, on the other hand, came from Caitlin’s favorite model, Daria Werbowy. She decided to combine this words together.

Caitlin wanted to design something authentic and new, which people will be curious about. And this has been her inspiration in creating her Merakibowy collection.

Merakibowy designs are easy to wear clothes fit for women who likes to take it easy and has a laid-back lifestyle.

Here are some of their collections:

I AM LEATHER ADDICT - The Tannery Manila

Happy Independence day everyone! I know many of us don't have class or work today, a very long weekend ahead haha! I'll get this opportunity to introduce to you one of my recent activity ^^

Yesterday, my sister and I attended the bloggers' night held by The Tannery Manila to showcase their brand to us bloggers. I was fascinated to see how their shop in Tiendesitas looks like ^^ Interior is nice, the people are nice and of course their products are definitely nice too. And I really want to share to you a sneak peek of their shop.  I this post is more on what inside their shop, and what I enjoy in their products PLUS an #ootd that I dont usually do hoho! I hope you'll enjoy reading this :D

My sister, Yeay!

Is "The Tannery Manila" Familiar with you?

 The Tannery Manila is came from a long line of leather makers - Hermoso family. they started the craft and honing skills in leather making since 1901. We can say that they are really expert in this field right? Imagine, 116 years of leather making. They are also known in exporting since 2007 where they ship their leather products to Germany, Japan, Australia and join both international and local export. They started small through exhibits, online selling, private sales until their first store in Tiendesitas. Their products are 100% Filipino and Handmade, most are made from cow leather with accents of exotic skin and all of their designs are classic and timeless designs

Their shop's history and products are really impressive right? that's why most of their bags ranges from 3000php-9000php. and bag is not only their product. They also offer accessories, bags, leather solutions plus made-order services and monogram & alteration services. Also, repair service is provided to all clients who bought products from them. 

I am a leather addict. As you can read on my previous post about the Tannery Manila. Actually my my uncles are shoe-makers before so my mom really enjoy leathers, from shoes to bags to wallets and of course, because of that, I do love leather also haha! I can say that I can identify what is good and what is not in a leather because my Mom taught me about that. and when I saw the products from Tannery Manila, my thumbs are up and I am nodding to say that their products are really good.

So here's a glimpse from The Tannery Manila's show room in Building A Level 1, Tiendesitas, Pasig City.

Wuah!, that's the first word that came out to my mouth when I enter the Tannery Manila's shop. I really love classic and timeless design of their interior and their products of course. I actually failed to take a photo of my favorite products because of my excitement in taking an #ootd shot haha! Plus there are lots of beautiful products inside their shop so you can hardly choose one haha!  My sister and I take the opportunity that Tannery Manila gave to us - to take an #OOTD photo :D We can pick only one since we are mesmerize to a lots of bags there :D

Unforgettable Experience in Clothes Buffet Manila

First of all I would like to thank Ms. Genzel (genzelkisses.com) for giving me a chance to experience a very unique shopping spree event called Clothes Buffet Manila :D

On the night when I first discovered Clothes Buffet Manila in the internet I dreamed about it haha! 

I dream that I won a ticket to that event and on the day of the event I put everything I want inside my buffet bag, but because I put too much clothes, my buffet bag broke then I cry haha! I beg to the organizer to give me one more chance but they neglected me.. awww

I know it's corny but it's real haha! from that day I promised to myself that I will join clothes buffet Manila, kahit na ma-bankrupt pa ko xD (at talagang bankrupt ako that time :D college problem)

but luckily, because I always check and read Ms Genzel's Blog, I found out that she will giveaway a ticket to an All-Star Wave Special Pass YEAY!

and to make my very long story short.. I won :D

I really do my best to won that giveaway, I always visit her blog and tweet about the giveaway and many more :D

Dream come true talaga :D

Clothes Buffet Manila is an event where there's 30000 clothes in buffet room (FYI, new and branded clothes) and you can grab all you want but you should fit it inside your BUFFET BAG (size 33 cm by 23 cm) within 15 minutes.

EXCITING RIGHT? :D

one bag is worth 1999php but I get it for FREE yeay!! thanks again Ms Genzel :)

It's so sulit naman because you can fit atleast 8 to a maximum of (record breaking) 21pcs inside your buffet bag.  

So that's me haggard na haggard because I had a hard time finding Il Terazzo.. ay grabe! naloka talaga ako mahanap lang yun :D umalis ako ng 10am to our house nakarating ako ng 1:30pm kahahanap :D (probinsyana problem)

because of this event I discover my new talent:

to fit 13 pcs of clothes inside the buffet bag haha!

Until know I cant Imagine how did I fit 13pcs of clothes inside of the buffet bag GOSH! Amazing xD 

BUT (again) I was not able to picked the clothes I supposed to picked :D 

yeah right, because of the TIME PRESSURE, I mostly got a clothes from GIRLS NIGHT OUT haha! I didn't notice that I picked too much on that part of the buffet floor. I supposed to get clothes from Smart chick, so I can use it for my school activities.. but yeah, there will always be next time :D

gagalingan ko na talaga..

I gave 2 pcs of the clothes to my mom, 1 to my sister and 2 to my friends, bea and Saira.. this will also a sign of gratitude to Lord for allowing me to won the giveaway of Ms. Genzel

After 15 minutes on the buffet floor/room, the organizers gathered us to the mini bazaar room where many booths are there. In every booth there's an activity or game that  you can join  or you can just simply sign up or like or follow them and win more prizes. 

Again, I won amazing prizes from 2nd avenue and sister's secret :D

 YEAY! tumbs up to all of you guys!

Your 1,999php will bring back doubled to you,
super duper uber sulit talaga
