Oasis Goes Miu Miu-ish and MJ-ish

Before we go any further here, I have to point out that I am not an Oasis fan, I was at some point but that was years and years ago, before the so-called quality of their clothes gone south. I don't know what went wrong with their designs. Probably one of their managers/board members gone all stingy and decided to take the dreaded cost-cutting strategy on us. Anyhow...


It seems that the British high street stable Oasis, has caught on to the trendy crystal and studs embellished designs from last Spring/Summer Miu Miu and Marc Jacobs collections. Oasis was "inspired" by the queen-of-hearts Miu Miu jewel-embellished pointy flats and "the-not-so-prompt" Marc Jacobs square toe studded flats. And to my surprise, the flats are actually comfortable when I tried them on. But that's only at the store. I'm not sure if they'll be comfortable enough to survive my rigorous shopping sprees. Take a look at the designer inspired Oasis shoes:





The shoes are sold for KD 14. Very very verrry affordable price for those who are looking for designer inspired pieces. And here are some pictures of the real deal... what do you think of that?

A lot of high street brands do exact imitations of the more expensive brands. its not always as good a quality as the latter.

They're mostly cheap versions. But sometimes they're comfy too (which is what matters - supposedly) hehe..

I agree.. and most of the times, the shoes are comfy when you try them on at the store, but once you buy them and give them a real brisk walk (or even chilling around, 20 minutes max and you've got a party of blisters going on :|

lala
Please do!! I'd LOVE to see them :)

yara
They actually were at the store. I'm not sure if they are when used daily :)

I'm sure high-end designers feel the same way you do :)

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 .
