BCBG This And BCBG That

Back in the good old days, I used to be obsessed with BCBG. My Eid attire had to be BCBG, my evening gown? BCBG, My shoes? you got it, BCBG. Now that my sense of style has matured and there is a bigger selection and wider choices within the local market and online, I'm not as obsessed (thank god!! I wouldn't want to be stuck in a style rut!!).

Nevertheless, I still check out BCBG's boutique at Arraya Complex every now and then. Mind you, the BCBG selection in Kuwait is not very impressive. Sometimes I have the feeling that the items on display are 4 seasons old. And sometimes, when they do display the new collection, the common sizes are already sold out even though I only came into the store an hour late from the time they had the new collection on display. And while we're at it, why are they selling their items more expensive than their original prices?

Anyways, here are some of the items that I liked from their Autumn/Winter collection:




This dark grey unconventionally shaped blazer/jacket is just the right thing to carry your look from day to night. I can imagine Mary Kate & Ahsley wearing the same blazer for an occasion teamed with their studded Christian louboutin ankle boots, a loose t-shirt, and a pair of dark skinny jeans. The Jack is sold for KD 158.



We're always on the look out for the next Little Black Dress. The perfect thing to wear for a small dinner. Pair it with huge golden accessories. The dress is sold for KD 103.



This is probably the only decent item from their almost non-existent Runway Fall Collection. I loved the details on the dress, it must have taken them ages for the dress to be completed. Wear the dress with colored opaque tights and platforms to give it a modern edgy look. The dress is sold for KD 182.

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 .
