‘This is me’ Exhibition by Kiehl’s

Kiehl’s hosted a striking photographic exhibition last Wednesday called ‘This is me,’ featuring 10 of the region’s most interesting and dynamic fresh faces who have been selected to represent the socially aware brand as ambassadors. The exhibition captured each of the subjects Kiehl’s characteristics in their very own “Kiehl’s moment”, and the proceeds from the show will be donated to the very worthy Make a Wish Foundation UAE charity. The gallery has been converted into a New York street scene, with pretzel and burger vendors, jazz and hip hop, and graffiti art adorning the walls.

I have chosen to share with you some of Kiehl’s new ambassadors such as are photographer Maisa Al Qasimi, students Haya and Sama Abu Khadra (whom get featured alot in international street style blogs), and our very own Kuwaiti artist Amira Behbahani who is shown here on the 2nd, and 3rd photos (Woohoo! WTG!). These fresh faces were selected for their diversity, creativity, and for the positivity they represent for each of their diverse communities.

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.

Marie Claire Kuwait

Did you know that Marie Claire, an international women's magazine, has been launched in Kuwait and their second issue is already in newsstands? Winner of the Best Women's Magazine and Magazine of the Year award for 2005, the magazine reportedly has over 14 million readers worldwide with 26 editions in 13 languages across the world. Marie Clair - Kuwait is in Arabic of course. The magazine offers an editorial mix of journalism with glamour, fashion and beauty coverage, and feature stories of lifestyle and serious women related issues. All by an Arabic editorial team. Have you read it? If yes, what do you think of it?

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 .
