Pre-Falling

Summer is still upon us for at least the next 3-4 months and Fall 2010 seems a distant thought, but savvy fashionistas are those who pick the best pieces from pre-fall arrivals, especially bags and shoe as you get to wear now too. Chanel boutique at Salhiya complex has also joined the pre-fall wagon, and has received few clothes, bags and shoes from the pre-fall collection and also from the Chanel Paris-Shanghai Métiers D'Arts collection. My favorite item from the pre-fall collection is this Chanel classic flap bag with tweed trimmed hand-embroidered camellias, interlaced chain and Chanel's signature turn lock. Price tag? KD 900+. I also found these cute kitten heel slippers adorned with cut-out camellias, but something about those little black sequins decorating the camellias that made it look a bit, dare I say, tawdry. Oh and by the way, I HATED Chanel's window display and the wigs used on the mannequins. Awful!
