So you're not buying the strong shoulder pads trend for whatever the reason is be it, unflattering, not proportionate on your body type, or simply because you lived through Dynasty years. However, you might want to give this trend a try by going for a subtler version of it, which is the embellished shoulders. Look for shoulder details like ornaments, beading, and studs. They create an slight effect of fullness, but in a very delicate way. I have found some good examples of the decorated shoulder in shops around K-town. Like Chloé's see through huge crystals, Alberta Ferretti pearl detail, and TopShop's pyramid shaped studs.
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.

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.
