That Kuwait is more fashion forward than any other country in the region save Lebanon is stating the bleeding obvious. However, it will be interesting to see how post Zay, ladies will come out wearing their Etro kaftans, zardosi embellished abayas, velvet Nafnoufs and satin Zenoubs.
Already we are beginning to see a fusion take place with men's fashion in Kuwait where you find 30 plus men in Armani ghetras wearing pinstriped Kenzo and Zegna suits. Certainly very vintage very Bethlehem very West Bank!

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 .
