Dar il Salhiya.. A New Gallery For Your Exhibitions

If Juicy Couture's store had a Kuwaiti version of it, it would be pretty much like "Dar il Salhiya". No, I'm not referring to the tracksuits. I'm referring to the interior design of the store. Dar il Salhiya is the latest addition to galleries which you can rent at if you wish to have an exhibition. It's very similar to Bait Badra or Villa Karizma in concept.


Located next to Salhiya Complex where Sari House used to be, Dar il Salhiya is divided into 6 sections available for rent. One of the sections has been specifically designed for accessories. And one of the other sections has a dedicated fitting room. The prices of the rent is reasonable, for instance, The accessories section would cost KD 40 per day. The interior is nice but I felt it was a bit gloomy for a gallery. But I like it's location, at least it's close to the underground parking opposite to Salhiya Complex. Here are some photos of the place.






I loved this girly pink glass & wood cabinet but unfortunately, it was not for sale. It's part of the interior. If you're interested to rent at Dar il Salhiya, you can call them at (+965) 2406001.

Dar Salhiya looks very not-so proper for its ground floor location inside of a dilapidated 60s era building - one of several still haunting a mostly fashion forward Kuwait City.

Dar il Salhiya is very chic but wait till you've visited "Libido -The Gallery", in Rawda. Man, I tell you the place is something else : a rare marriage between urban bohemia and Majlis al umma sophistication making it a most atmospheric space to be in;this side of the Gulf.
All you lounge lizards go check out their underground lounge bar & Turkish hammam

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 .
