To the Octium


Hands down. Octium, a jewelry store located in Kuwait's 360, has the best looking bags and the best gift wrapping in Kuwait so far. They really pushed the bar for retail branding. I love the cute illustration of the Owl on the blush pink bag, and the black wax stamp over the gift. Too good to rip off.

very chic! but the pale pink and black with the wax seal in the closeup picture kind of resembles Viktor and Rolf's flower bomb perfume packaging don't you think?

You're right, it does look similar to V&R's perfume package. But no owl there.. ;)

The shop is just astounding. Makes you want to try (and buy) almost everything on display

If you haven't been to the store, you have to check out their Interior.. A MUST SEE & admire.

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 .
