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.
Dar al-Athar al-Islamiyyah held an evening reception to celebrate the end of it's 14th Annual Cultural year at the Al Americani Cultural Centre last Wednesday. Guests were invited to explore the lovely historic building and discovered presentations related to Dar Al-Athaar's past, present, and future. My favourite sections were: 1) the old photos installation of AMH, as shown in the above photo. And the Mezzari exhibition shown in the below photos.
The Mezzari showcased ancient Italian artistic fabrics, dating back to the late 18th and 19th centuries. ''Mezzari" became popular by the middle of the eighteenth century, when in Genoa women used them to cover themselves or as headdresses.
