the other day i was rummaging through my drawers and found this purse i purchased last summer. i remember stashing this in my drawer because i noted in my mind that i will just use it in special occasions. you know those kind of events that bringing a bag is quite awkward, so sometimes you'll just carry a small purse like this.
i find this very special. this is a Rajo Laurel x Rags2Riches Design purse.
Rags2Riches Inc. is a for-profit social enterprise based in Manila, creating eco-ethical fashion and home accessories out of up cycled scrap cloth, organic materials and indigenous fabrics by working with women living in the poor communities across the country. you can read more about them here.
i treasure products like this. the creativity of filipino women and the cause behind the group making this product makes you proud of having one. as you have noticed that at the back of the tag, the name of the maker who handcrafted this product was written. thank you for making this purse :)
