109.. The New Shopping Destination in Kuwait





This Morning I found out that a new store called "109" has opened in a complex called "Al Ghawali" located at Shuhada'a Street, Kuwait City (Opposite to Al Raya Complex). So I headed there to get a glimpse of the store and get my hands on it's stock before anyone else (as usual.. My shopping fever was at it's height). But when I got there, it turned out that the store will open this Saturday the 16th June. I have also found out that the store is owned by the same group that owns Fashion TV Arabia.. Interesting huh? 109 will be selling brands such as Exte, versace, Just Cavalli, C'n'C Costume National, GF Ferre, and Galliano. I wonder if it's going to be hip enough to compete with other trendy boutiques. So I guess we'll just have to wait & see.

That's very cool! Ask them what they think about the store plz :). Yesterday when i passed by it, I went inside and the store was completely empty. There were still men drilling the walls and the place smelled like v. strong fresh paint! I even told the people in charge over there if they'll be able to make it and meet their deadline..

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

Chanel Bags on Discount?!

If you thought that getting a cheap Chanel bag that's within your budget is something too far fetched, then think again. You'll be surprised to know that Chanel's boutique located at Salhiya Complex is currently selling several bags, that are a maximum 1 or 2 seasons old, on discount . And we're not talking about a 2 or 5% discount here, these bags are 50% off their original price! For some reason I always thought that Chanel bags never go on sale. But I guess the printed ones or the ones that are made out of the collection's main fabric have to go on sale. Anyways, I managed to take photos of these 2 beauties. What I love about those bags is that they're a classic shape that never goes out of style, their print is young and refreshing, plus they're quilted. I think they could be a collector's item. Both bags featured here are sold for approximately KD 250 .
