Get You Sketchbook Now!


The energetic, multi-talented, and fabulous Bahraini editor Wafa Al Obaidat who’s the brainchild behind Sketchbook magazine, a quarterly magazine that showcases established and emerging creative talents in fashion, design and culture with a focus on features, photography and illustration, has just released the second edition of Sketchbook magazine titled LONDON FASHION DESIGNERS ISSUE.

This issue is filled with the most talked about designers, illustrators and photographers around today, including Matthew Williamson, Paul Smith, David David, Luella, Burberry and Genger & Mayer amongst many more.  If you appreciate art, it would be very hard for you to miss the exquisiteness of Sketchbook online cover layout.  There's something distinctly different about it. The enjoyable perplexity begins with the beautiful illustrations of cover star, Henry Holland, who talks us through how he went from making T-shirts for fun to designing his new collection for House Of Holland.  Part Two of the online magazine features interviews with the stylist and creative director of House of Blueeyes: Johnny Blueeyes, Prince Pelayo and Gala Gonzalez who live together and have been making waves in the fashion industry.

I personally think that the magazine has morphs into a sophisticated fashion must read. it has been created for people who appreciate and love fashion, design, and art.  Wafa.. You made us proud. I can’t wait to read the 3rd edition of Sketchbook!

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 .
