Hey! Just a Q that's is got me thinking! How do people get invited to big shows like saab + chanel!
Do they get invited by the designer themselves ? ;O
Or do they fill a form? (Haha;P! Excuse my lack of knowledge)

I think there are several ways, people in the industry like buyers and journalists get invited by the designers to give exposure to their brand (thru buying) and review their designs (thru media). Some designers invite their favorite clients... and so on.

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
