This one is particularly close to my heart because we didn’t just design a shop for JAM. We did the branding for JAM. And branding is never just drawing a logo.

People often only see the final result: four letters, a typeface, a colour, a sign on a wall. What they don’t see are the thousands of ideas that came before it. Over the years, we must have come up with 50,000 names and God knows how many logos. You write, draw, reject, rethink, redraw and start all over again until suddenly something feels completely right. JAM felt right.

We are incredibly proud of the identity we created, and even happier that we now get to become part of the place ourselves. We love our client, we love the location, and we have waited a very long time for this moment.

So naturally, we decided to have a little fun with JAM. We turned it into Strawberry JAM.

Our pop-up will be called Strawberry Fields, the strawberry will be our key visual, and the shop will have a strong streetwear direction. It will be a slightly different Nala universe, created especially for this location.

We soft open on 27 September, but the real celebration is on 3 October from 11 a.m. This is an open invitation to our friends, our fans, our customers and anyone who wants to come and discover Strawberry Fields.

There will, of course, be peanut butter and jam sandwiches. Because really, what else could we possibly serve?

And there is one more thing.
We have a massive surprise coming. We are collaborating with our favourite graffiti artist on something very special for Strawberry Fields, but I’m not giving that away just yet. The artwork and the story behind the collaboration will be revealed in next week’s newsletter.

For now, put it in your diary.

You’re invited. Come and have a PB&J with us.

From 17 to 20 September, The Campus Ampang is celebrating One Moon, bringing together the Mid-Autumn Festival and Malaysia Day with four days of food, art, culture and, of course, lanterns.

The big celebration happens on 19 and 20 September, with lion dances, festive drums, live singing, cultural performances, lantern-making, fan painting, calligraphy, an art exhibition, a lantern walk and the Finch Market.

And at Nala, we’re bringing back our little mooncake surprise.

Our Nala Mystery Gift Boxes are still available at RM169 each, and every box is a surprise. Inside you’ll find a mystery Nala bag and a mooncake, and if you’re particularly lucky, you might discover a Nala voucher hiding inside too.

You don’t get to choose. That’s the fun of it.

So come for the lanterns, stay for the celebrations, and pick up a mystery box while you’re there.

Nala Mystery Gift Box: RM169
Available at Nala The Campus while stocks last.

We believe in the quality of what we make. A Nala piece should never be worn for just one season. Our prints and products are made to last, to be passed on, rediscovered and hopefully enjoyed for generations.

That’s why our Nala Pre-Loved Buyback is an important part of our CSR programme, and something we’re always very happy to do.

This weekend, in conjunction with Port Market Vol. 3 at The Campus Ampang, 11 to 13 September, Nala The Campus will become a little pre-loved market.

Bring back your pre-loved Nala pieces, from dresses, skirts and tops to scarves and other Nala treasures. Everything is welcome. In return, you’ll receive a RM100 Nala voucher for dresses and skirts, and RM50 for tops.

And then we give them another life. The pieces we collect will be resold at very friendly prices throughout the weekend, with dresses and skirts at RM80 and tops at RM50.

Come sell, come shop, come rummage. Someone else’s old Nala might just become your new favourite.

From 4 to 6 September, Books & Board Games is taking over The Assembly Hall for three days of books, games, creativity, local makers, food and plenty to browse.

And of course, we’re joining in too.

Over at Nala The Campus, our library cart will be out with our totes, Shuppato bags, art prints and, very appropriately for this weekend, our black-spine notebooks in Pandanus and Snow Pea Leaf.

It’s only happening this weekend at Nala The Campus. Just show us this newsletter when you come by.

Come for the books, stay for a board game, buy some stationery you absolutely don’t need, have something to eat and then come and say hello to us.

The dandelion is our logo because it represents the women we believe in. Resilient, independent and never afraid to grow wherever life puts them. It may look delicate, but it is remarkably difficult to keep down. And when its seeds take flight, we make a wish.

So for Merdeka, we're making 69 out of dandelions and making a rather big wish.

WILD, FREE & 69.

What exactly does that mean for you? We're keeping that part a secret for just a little longer.

At midnight, the day before Merdeka, we'll reveal our special WILD69 celebration, available both online and in our stores.

Your code will be:

WILD69

Set your alarm. Make a wish. And meet us at midnight.

Selamat Hari Merdeka. 🇲🇾

Bon Odori is a Japanese summer tradition with centuries of history. Originally connected to Obon, a time for honouring ancestors and welcoming their spirits home, it has evolved into a joyful community celebration filled with music, dancing, lanterns and food. The odori simply means “dance”, and people traditionally gather around a raised platform to dance together.

From 14 to 16 August, The Campus will be celebrating with its own Lantern Festival, and Bella and the Nala Campus team are joining the fun.

Spend RM150 in a single receipt at Nala and you get one Lucky Pick. Pick a number and discover your prize immediately. There are T-shirts, art prints, vouchers, scrunchies, Campus totes and more to be won, with one of our beautiful new Kinchaku Bags as the star of the show.

So come to The Campus this weekend. Eat, wander, enjoy the lanterns, try your luck and come say hello to Bella and the team.

There really is never a dull weekend at The Campus.
