The bidding war for the upscale department-store Barneys New York intensified over the weekend, as Dubai's Istithmar increased its offer to $900 million from its original bid of $825 million, matching a competing proposal from the Japanese Company. In response, the Japanese Co. sweetened its offer to $950 million. Istithmar has two business days, beginning Monday to make another offer "at least as favorable" as the Japanese bid. Who do you think will win this battle? I'm really enjoying this! It's like a soap opera. We'll find out tomorrow whether we'll be shopping at Barneys Dubai or not.
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.
