Calling all LV's Limited Edition Bags Collectors


Nothing I love tackling more than finding limited edition items in Kuwait. Let's all welcome the Louis Vuitton Aquarelle Bag released earlier last week at LV's boutiques located at Salhiya Complex. This limited edition bag is probably the only bag from Richard Prince collaboration with Marc Jacobs which I actually like... A LOT.

The modified version of the Speedy has a wooden frame with washed out and smudged watercolor monogram. The handles are made of mulit-colored lizard skin, which makes it easy to wear with almost everything. I love the way it opens up, you can see everything in your bag with one glance, which also makes it easy to find your car keys. It only comes in this size and color. And girlfriend, expect to pay a hefty KD 1,050 for this piece of art. Yup.

If that's waaay over your budget, then you can get the smaller version of the bag (shown below) but in blackish-brown. I think it cost something around KD 900 or KD 800, not sure. Honestly? It doesn't look as nice as the white one. But if you're a "collector's-item" type of gal and on a budget, then this should do the trick.

the first bag pictured is featured in the current May issue of UK Elle, page 271(right botom corner) priced A 1,650 pounds.. I think am going to write a lovely letter to the head office of LV- I truly loathe being scammed.

Honey, you aren't being scammed unless you buy the bag. Moreover, if you don't agree with the price, just call any LV store in London and ask them if they can ship to Kuwait. Simple, eh?

Saks In Bahrain

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue store in Bahrain. The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
