The Art of Architecture

This Autumn/Winter 2009 collection sees Rupert Sanderson draw on inspiration from all round the globe: from beaches in Sri Lanka, all the way to Italy and her Italian master craftsman, Gio Ponti.

Gio Ponti, one of Italy’s greatest 20th Century designers and architects, has been a huge inspiration to Rupert Sanderson this season. It is his flatware in particular that has inspired Rupert Sanderson to create his first sculptured heel, brand new for this season, on styles such as Seleste (shown here).

The heel stands 110mm high and gives the illusion of being broken, whereas it’s actually perfectly balanced when teamed with the subtle external platform. The heel is truly an ingenious piece of design and again reflects back to Sanderson’s love of architecture, structure and balance – all key elements in his shoe-making.

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 .
