Are "IT" bags overrated?

Go to Lorenzo, Salhiya, or Maki on any week night and you'd porobably find at least 5 girls carrying the new balenciaga (with the golden studs).. 4 other girls carrying different shades of Marni's baloon bag (haven't seen one carrying the yellow balllon bag yet...).. ten girls carruing the same Chanel coco cabas... What is this obsession with carrying the it bag of the season!! it's not going to make you the next Lindsay, MK&A, or Nicole! especially in Kuwait..

To me an IT bag should be:

A bag that has no been carried around by 1/2 of the kuwaiti female population

Can only be seen in the magazine once throughout the season

Makes people wonder "What is this bag?"

Should not be worn by Paris Hilton.

What is your bag for this season???

I have a Fendi Moncler Spy Bag

Its not like the other Spy bags..
Fendi and Moncler have collaborated to make a limited edition 'Spy' made from quilted nylon.

I bought from Rome last November! I just couldn't resist! The one I bought is red ;-) Never saw another gal carrying it here in Kuwait!!

Saks In Bahrain

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue store in Bahrain. The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
