NARU by Samaire Armstrong.

I’ve never thought of Samaire Armstrong as an awesome actress, but as a cute little person with a great sense of style. Born in Japan in 1980, this actress became famous mostly thanks to the TV series The OC, where she played Anna; although she’s been in other popular programs such as “Entourage” and “Dirty, Sexy, Money”. She also starred a few movies (e.g. “It’s a Boy/Girl Thing”) and co-starred a bunch more (e.g. “Just my Luck”).

However, in my humble and subjective opinion, none of her roles has stood out as much as her own clothing brand: “Naru” (that’s the Japanese term for “becoming”). Not only have her designs been featured in Vogue, Elle, Cosmogirl and In Style, TV directors have let Samaire wear them to dress her characters. Naru has stockists in Hawaii and California and hopefully, Samaire’s clothes will be available in many other places in the future.
