Etoile by Isabel Marant launches at NET-A-PORTER.COM on 23rd June

Following the overwhelming success of Isabel Marant’s mainline, NET-A-PORTER.COM has picked up Etoile by Isabel Marant for FW2010 and it will be launched this coming Wednesday 23rd June. I'm eyeing this sooo on-trend denim jumpsuit.

Parisian designer Isabel Marant launched her second line, Etoile Isabel Marant in 2000. The go-to label for easy Rive Gauche chic, Marant's designs blend relaxed tailoring with bohemian detailing - an unbeatable recipe that has won her fans the world over, from Chloe Sevigny to Diane Kruger. From printed tea dresses to military-style khaki parkas, each piece possesses the same sexy, downtown feel as Marant's main line but at an even more accessible price point (prices range from KD75 - KD 280).

For fall NET-A-PORTER has bought soft plaid shirts and army green parkas, bohemian printed dresses and blouses, sexy black separates and statement bold shoulder jackets. There are some great knitwear-as-outerwear pieces too.

i personally never understood why everyone went crazy for isabel marant all of a sudden (shes been around for aages). okay its "parisian style", i dont know i find "parisian style" incredibly boring. there nothing happy or inspired about it.

I actually find some pieces quite interesting like the denim jumpsuit and some are practical for everyday errands. I agree, the brand's designs are nothing out of the ordinary and probably that's why fashion media all of a sudden started to focus on this brand when the world got hit by the recession. The majority of people started to shop for "safe" and classic pieces that stand the test of time and Isabel fit the criteria perfectly.

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 .
