Happy Birthday Dear Net-a-Porter

Net-a-porter had a paaartaaayy. Actually, the world’s premier luxury online shopping destination celebrated it’s 10 years anniversary at their spectacular head office in Westfield. Natalie Massenet, who wore a black Valentino sequined dress, celebrated the occasion with a slew of top designers such as Victoria Beckham, Christopher Bailey and Roland Mouret.

Wow! 10 years!! I remember this first time I found out about it. I was hooked the minute I browsed the site and I used to visit their site daily, back then I didn’t know they had new arrivals every Wednesday (yup it was only on Wednesdays) and was afraid I’ll be missing out on some gems. What was your first net-a-porter purchase? If you don’t remember, log on to your net-a-porter account and look up past orders. Mine was a Chloé bag which I have and still use till this day. Here’s to 50 more years of fabulous online shopping.

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.
