The LBD


It’s the wedding season and you’re on the lookout for a cocktail dress? Relax and kick back those red soled stilettos.  I have gladly done your homework for you and I've got some fab picks right here that won’t break the bank (well except for one!).  So let’s start with today’s post focusing on our all time favorite, the LBD. Let's start with this D&G halter dress with ruffled tulle detail which I spotted at Aïshti in the Avenues. Price tag? KD 367. With all those ruffles going around, you don't need to worry about accessories. Just a simple pair of patent heels and diamond earrings will do. 


For those of you who like simple designs check out this D&G strapless lace dress with ruched detailing on the side and a ribbon bow. I couldn't find it in D&G's online look book but I've found the same design in different material just to give you an idea of how it actually looks like. Price tag? KD 230


Another cute dress by Italian brand Cristiano Burani with light organza ruffled shoulders. Also available at Aïshti Price tag? KD 218


Try this uber-chic LBD by Preen. The long sleeves lace dress from the brand's pre-fall collection 2010 is very fitted, so invest in a good pair of spanx. Price tag? KD 296

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.

Amazing Alia

Several months ago I posted about Alia Designs , a Kuwaiti talented designer of traditional clothes and dresses. Back then, I liked one of the items featured on her website. This time I'm going ga-ga over her latest Ramadan collection of Kaftans and darraa'at! Especially the one shown here on the first picture. Looks very young, comfortable, and oh-so-perfect for after futoor! For inquiries please visit the website or call (+965) 642-7400.
