Khaki.. Khaki Cool

GAP's newest collaboration with CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund nominees Alexander Wang and Vena Cava is now on display at GAP's store at The Avenues Phase 1. The classic GAP khaki looks have been revamped with strong urban chic qualities. The collection was mediocre except for 2 items which I really liked: The Alexander Wang shrunken motorcycle jacket (shown below) and Vena Cava's African inspired shift dress (also shown below), which I snapped immediately off the rack because it was the LAST PIECE! How come this was not announced in the local media?! I found out about it by coincidence.

I love the Alexander Wang khaki motorcycle jacket... (too bad it's just women!!!)
(And can;t wait for his first men's collection to debut this fashion week I think!!!)
And the Vena Cava print dress.

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.

Amazing Alia

Several months ago I posted about Alia Designs , a Kuwaiti talented designer of traditional clothes and dresses. Back then, I liked one of the items featured on her website. This time I'm going ga-ga over her latest Ramadan collection of Kaftans and darraa'at! Especially the one shown here on the first picture. Looks very young, comfortable, and oh-so-perfect for after futoor! For inquiries please visit the website or call (+965) 642-7400.
