Travel With An "IT Bag"

By now every one of you knows that IT bags are overrated. Erratic fashion frenzy people have moved on to the IT shoes and the IT pieces. So it was kind of funny when Longchamp revealed their "IT Bag" in an attempt to mock the so-passe IT totes trend.

As seen on the brand's summer Kate Moss ads, the "Ceci est un IT Bag" ("This is an IT Bag" in French) has black leather handles and a drawing using the same print design of Longchamp's popular bags. The bag has magnatic closure and a zipper compartment inside, and it comes in beige and orange canvas. I personally think that the bag is cute to use for travelling and for the beach.

"Ceci est un IT Bag" is now available at Longchamp boutique at The Avenues Phase II. Price tag? KD 95 for the medium sized bag and KD 90 for the large size. Yes, the larger bag is cheaper for some reason.

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.

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

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.

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 .
