Carolina Herrera was in Kuwait!?!?

Carolina Herrera (the daughter not the designer) was in Kuwait and in the Avenues?!?!?? How come we don't get to know about such events until after they occur! Bummer!

I just found out about it through Al Watan TV tonight. Apparently, the daughter of, er, Carolina Herrera was in Kuwait for the store's official opening CH by Carolina Herrera (I think! or was it a launch of a new perfume?).

haha, how funny she was in Dubai too. Also didn't know about it until the day after she left! How is it that bloggers sit front row at D&G in Milan & yet website owners and bloggers here have no idea when someone like that is in the region!!

did a mini survey in Dxb - newspapers knew she was here.
can't wait till the day PR co's/fashion industry in GCC, wakes up to the fact that online is the way fwd (if I'm still alive!) lol!

The concept of involving bloggers and online portals to press announcements is fairly new to this region I guess, we shouldn’t be surprised. But I can't help it :P

Interesting.. Thanks for sharing..
Local bloggers are off limits to entrepreneurs, for starters get their names right, - that was Carolina Adriana; muse and collaborator on the 212 men fragrance. One of the other daughters is based at the NY design office (Patricia Lansing). Prior to inducting the etiquette protocol of interviewing a celebrity/designer/hot shots – arrangements are conducted from their home base; where publicists circle around a hefty net of worthy PR within relation and limited time frame during the stay in each country.

Few international bloggers get invited to such events because apart from the crucial part that they can identify people by their full name, use spell check, also refrain from two words that equal death kisses "it" & "fashionista" – they are also serving the fashion business immensely.

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.
