Estreya Accessories Launch at Bamboo main stage

As an accessory junkie I won’t say No to any accessory related events as long as I have some free time. Last Saturday, I went to the Estreya Accessories launch party at Bamboo Main stage.

First thing, it was a pretty slick party. I’ve never been to Bamboo before and I was pleasantly surprised by the sheer ‘coolness’ of the place. The main stage was large enough for any kind of concert. The sitting area was nicely designed and comfortable enough. For Summer coming up, I can see how popular this venue will be…

There were ladies wearing Estreya pieces very elegantly. The creator of Estreya, Arna, kindly directed me to these ladies so that I could see how Estreya pieces could be styled. Estreya gets another tick from me for being pretty clever about who wears what and how. Nice styling goes a long way. And should I mention that there was a little burlesque act from Sugar Blue Burlesque. My obsession with all things burlesque has been well documented.

Estreya sounds very much like Australia, doesn’t it? It doesn’t get another tick from me for that but what it does give us is an online store which looks to me very simple to use and elegant enough to get my attention. What I wonder is how people will be attracted to buy these accessories online. Specially, when there are so many accessories retailers flogging their stuff so cheap.. What is Estreya going to do differently to stand apart from these large retailers?

What I can see is variety and lots of it. Estreya doesn’t just do cheap costume pieces. Along with the ten dollar gear there are exquisite pieces with prices to match. Maybe, that will set them apart from other labels.

As usual, it was lovely taking photos of lovely people wearing lovely accessories. I also got goodie bags with some silvery summer earrings, a wooden bangle and a little scarf. All I need now is a Summer getaway plan to an exotic island. Any care to join us?

    The venue is very slick! Everyone is very glam.

    I love those pieces, but I agree, the prices are a bit steep. Still, they'll sell, because they look great.
