Francesco BIASIA at Al Thurraya Complex

Al Ostoura Group has now a new addition to their collection of brand accessories. Newly soft-opened Francesco BIASIA boutique features a selection of Italian handbags and leather accessories. It’s too soon for me to make any critical judgments here as I haven't seen the entire collection yet. If you have already been to the boutique, I'd like to know what you think of the collection.

Francesco BIASIA boutique is located at Al Thurraya Complex.

ths brand is dreadful!
They have been making some of the ugliest bags for as long as i know them. Very often inspired (to put it in a nice way) by other designers. And if you are lucky, you can find a Mulberry, Prada mixed in with great Balenciaga zippers and tassels... ALL IN ONE BAG!!!
Now how great is that?? :)

Francesco Biasia have designed many excellent, unique and attractive bags. So far I have bought 5 different styles. What I like about their bags is that it is possible to find something a little different and individual with interesting details and beautiful colours and finishes to the leathers.

I don't agree that they are a mix of brands such as Prada or Mulberry etc all in the one bag at all. In fact I find that some of the high designer brands can sometimes be rather boring and repetitive. I suspect that quite a number of people like them simply because they visibly display the brand rather than the style itself.

So please don't feel threatened by Francesco Biasia. Be adventurous, reject the same old, same old comservative and predictable styles and give them a try!

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.

Sephora Opening Soon At The Avenues II

Beauty Junkies rejoice! The famous retailer of perfumes and cosmetics and the leading beauty chain in Europe and US, Sephora , will be opening soon at The Avenues Phase II. Personally, I like Sephora not only because of its tempting cosmetic selection, but mainly because I don't feel pressured by sales associates to buy stuff that I don't really need. I can actually touch and try the products without having the sales associate stalking me around and giving me some unnecessary comments about my skin/make-up. I think Sephora will make it big here if it sells its high-end cosmetics which are unavailable at other beauty stores/pharmacies in Kuwait. Does anyone have any product recommendations or favorites?
