Playful Pieces

It's been a while since I last shopped at Oasis. I didn't think I was missing out  much on anything especially that its collections haven't been that impressive compared to retail moguls TopShop, H&M, and Zara. So when I walked past its window display by coincidence and caught a glimpse of the above top I immediately stopped and had to rush inside. I read about a limited edition designer collaboration a month ago somewhere and now this limited collection is in Kuwait. The exclusive collaboration is with London College of Fashion undergraduate Rosalind Keep.

Keep’s Trompe L’oeil illustrations, which means 'trick of the eye' in French, of corseted dresses, trench coats, tuxedo’s and Chanel inspired jackets have been printed onto a range of jersey separates including oversized tees and racer back vests. The quirky cool tops are ideal for casual days and very budget friendly. Price tag? KD 19.

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.

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 .
