Did you know that Marie Claire, an international women's magazine, has been launched in Kuwait and their second issue is already in newsstands?

Winner of the Best Women's Magazine and Magazine of the Year award for 2005, the magazine reportedly has over 14 million readers worldwide with 26 editions in 13 languages across the world. Marie Clair - Kuwait is in Arabic of course.

The magazine offers an editorial mix of journalism with glamour, fashion and beauty coverage, and feature stories of lifestyle and serious women related issues. All by an Arabic editorial team.
Have you read it? If yes, what do you think of it?

I was impressed with the content, but two things suck:

1- The annual subscription price is ridiculous, compared to the international subscription price (UK/US/etc) i think it was around 16 KD

2- the quality of the paper/magazine itself is crap. Its the cheap matte type paper that smells funky and has terrible binding (the one all the magazines here use). I really think they can improve on this point.

thank you for this post confashions, I really hope the Marie Claire team receives this feedback.

The trillion dinar question is will it be able to hold a candle to the avant garde fashion and lifestyle magazine, 'Alef'?
Yeah they've also launched in the UAE, so I guess they might be gulf version, or for each gulf country...?

Hi La Petite Patisserie! It is true that Marie Claire has launched in the UAE too. MC is not a Pan-Arab magazine. Each country has it's own local edition, which caters specifically to the tastes & preferences of that country's people. :)

I don't think Kuwait's MC has an online version of their published mags. Your best bet is to contact their archive at their Head office...

I am a student of Social and Media communication and I am writing my final paperwork about womens magazine in arabic countries. do you think you could provide me with some information?

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
